I have the Rampage cab and we enjoy it, we play gauntlet mostly. I am probably going to try to trade it for one of the pacman 40th cabs, as well as going to buy the virtual pin when they release.

Quoted from Who-Dey:

I really like the Mrs Pac Man thats coming out better but the only thing that sucks is it comes with Galaxian and Pac Man somes with Galaga. Galaga is much better than Galaxian but i like Mrs Pac Man better that the regular Pac Man and that Mrs Pac Man cabinet is extremely sexy!

Yeah that blue cab sure does look good.

I also agree about the house of the dead cab. If they do a shooter cab with some area 51 games or house of the dead games, i'm in on that too.

Since the arcade1ups were on such deep sale lately I ended up receiving the T2 cab and the simpsons cabs for christmas. I actually really enjoy them and think they are a ton of fun.

We've had the super pac-man one for a while and liked it, but getting a couple more has been way more fun than i thought.

If you want to upgrade the monitor and games in your arcade1up pin, here are some rough links: https://www.facebook.com/groups/2768572869834975/posts/9240923719266492/

Quoted from kool1:

My buddy keeps going on about 1ups saying they are crap and aren't the same scale as my pins.
To me it's a whole separate thing, I don't care if they are scale. Have to check reviews though, some do have issues and design flaws. Love my Blitz and Buck Hunter cabs especially. For the money (especially on sale) they are really fun.

I know a good number of people that put down the arcade1ups, but all I can say is "to each his own".

There are a lot of non-purists getting joy out of having half a dozen arcade1ups. Living a little bit of their dream and having an arcade in their house.

The cabs are also teaching a lot of unskilled people about raspberry pi mods, etc. I think that's a cool side effect.

I've owned lots of "real" arcades and pins, and I still think arcade1up has a place in a line up.

Quoted from LilRocky:

Nice price for an awesome machine!
On a different note, my MVC2 cab is starting to show signs of buggyness. Oddly enough, have yet to encounter any issues with MVC2, but some of the other fighters have had the volume issue, where the sound will randomly increase/decrease during play (you actually see the volume scroller appear on screen as well).

I had that happen on my Simpsons game. I took it apart and disassembled and reassembled the control deck, down to the boards and connectors, and that cleared it up for me. Seemed to be some loose connections that were getting aggravated by people pushing on the control deck and torquing it, etc...

I got some 1/2” neon gaffer tape for the edges of my games. I think it looks better [quoted image]

Fun setup!

Quoted from LilRocky:

Recent patch had my Tron, Centipede legacy, and class of ‘81 perform an update. Tron and centipede went just fine, but my class of ‘81 got bricked. Starts to the main menu and then freezes and causes a screen flicker. Can’t press any buttons or do anything. If anyone knows how to re-install an update manually, let me know. Wrote A1Up yesterday and they responded quick, but gave me a cookie cutter response of checking power issues. Wrote them back that it’s a software issue, so waiting to hear back again.

I might be making this memory up, but I thought I read somewhere there was a way to reload it via the SD Card, but I can't seem to find it.
