Part of me thinks that they took a look at AtGames and iiRcade, and thought to themselves "If these companies are charging more for their cabs, why can't we?" without a thought for the higher quality and features those companies put into their cabs.

I was looking for this cab for over a year. I turned down those crazy Ebay prices, but did buy at $550 from Game Stop. This game is more in demand than NBA Jam too which should be taken into consideration. Turtles was technically $399 original retail I believe. As far as the $700 cabs those I won't buy at all unless on clearance or used.

Ever since Arcade1up did collaborations with Supreme and Steve Aoki, this company has took a big jump in their direction with pricing and who their targeted customers are now. It's not a coincidence. It seems like now they're targeting the sneaker head/high end "FOMO" customers. They have pretty much killed my desire to buy any future cabinets with these ridiculous prices that yield no impactful improvements whatsoever. I don't want to hear that lumber excuse either. They use cheap MDF. The jump in prices have no justification to them at all.

They made a crapload of NBA Jam to more than likely offset the cost of the Licensing and other options. I mean NBA jam was in every retail/club store. Golden axe had a limited release and it was at GameStop or Arcade 1up's site. It was out of stock for the longest time till recently. Demand wasn't there so I can only assume why the price was higher because less was made.

Way too many great Sega titles deserved a spot on this cab more than Wrestle War. They could opted to go with Alien Storm or Shadow Dancer, something that wouldn't have to change aspect ratios and could still use the three action buttons. It's not worth 550. Granted, Golden Axe is my favorite arcade title, but this is underwhelming at that price point

Hate to say it but A1Up made this cabinet $549 cause they were banking on guys like you who were so bummed you missed it the 1st time were willing to pay it. No other reason. Same as the 30 seconds rerelease of the original MK2 cabinet when the movie dropped.

Great recap! Just too small for a true 4 player experience for grown men. Monitor size remains an issue for all 4 player A1up games - 17" just too small. And ALL cabs should have wifi going forward. I can see this being priced at $400, maybe $450 - anything past that is just too rich. And a GREAT point about the build quality versus the increased cost.

Just subbed you today. Digging then channel. I’m in the construction industry. Prices of my products that I sell have gone through the roof. Raw material has absolutely skyrocketed in price since COVID-19. Thus making everything higher. Price of Gold is eye popping. These 3/4 are expensive but they are nowhere near the price of full size games. All in all I don’t mind paying the price for the games I have ant. Is what it is. At the end of the day you will buy what you want Bc if you want it then you will justify the price. That’s just my opinion.

The Arcade1up NBA Jam costs $1100 AUD here, which is over $800 USD at the moment. The Simpsons is $1399 AUD and the Legacy Street Fighter or Mortal Combat machines are $799. I guess they can still sell them, as they are being offered through major retailers. We do have retro gaming specialists producing various full sized designs and custom cabinets, usually with at least a 26" monitor and Sanwa controls starting from not much more, so the value seems poor.

When this cabinet came out a few years ago i missed out on it. It was cheaper at $400 but still I decided to buy it . Yes $550 is a steep price but is much better then paying $700 for the new cabs. I just think GameStop had a whole bunch of this in a warehouse and decided to resell them at a higher price to make a profit.

19kfox, After the initial offer from A1Up at $399 (and with FREE SHIPPING...sadly, which I passed on) turned out to be a really missed opportunity. When it came time to GameStop selling them at $499, I was already out. However, another $50 price hike seems simply outrageous. Nice cabinet with an equally nice game list...but not worth the money. I could only justify it if the new wave of Golden Axe cabinets included WiFi, light-up deck protector and stool. Cheers, Brent

I don't think $549 is bad for something that was a limited release and sold out last fall. Can tell how many people don't collect things in the comments, this is a minor late tax which I'm fine with paying because these were insanely priced on the secondary market. Now $700 for the newer cabinets...oof.
@castleranch7383 жыл бұрын
One way to look at it is, considering their outrageous price hike for the same products, they’re now pretty much forced to focus on “A-List” titles to make them worth it in the eyes of their customers. No ones going to be convinced of the random side arcade game anymore…they need to either be the big hits (After Burner…Daytona…Operation Wolf…WWF…) or unique controls. Anything else just won’t work at this higher price point and that’s a shame.

Worth is in the eye of the beholders. What Arcade youtubers are not watching.. Is THE F"ing MARKET! Guys are you not blind? If you watched the latest arcade auctions the machines and even old games are going for way more now. Sorry.. but crying over the money is like me crying over trying to get into Pinball. When the Pinball machines are now 9K-12K easily. The cost and shipping for stuff is going up because of Pandemic. Hell you are lucky to find any bus drivers for school kids now and many other things are having a hard time being built or stocked. Why you think Amico had to be delayed again? Sorry just being honest with you guys. Also yes many arcade machines are now going for 1K-1,500 easily now.

It isn’t worth it, if you want to run this cabinet with a worthwhile feel and controls you are looking at 100 dollars more to get Sanwa sticks and replace all the crappy 1up stock sticks. Next the buttons, probably another 50 to 100 for Happ buttons or sanwa. Now you are into it another couple hundred dollars. At 400 bucks.... it wasn’t so bad with their cheap crap that needed replaced. I’m not throwing close to 1000 dollars for a replica arcade. The only arcade they can possibly release that I will throw down money like that would be MVC2 because I am a huge marvel Capcom fan. Other than that I won’t bring that money. I can spend 600 right now on a Space Ace iircade and that arcade is the gift that keeps on giving with more titles all the time.
