Such a great review. Honestly.... so great in fact, I'm sure (next paycheck) that I'm going to Wal-Mart & see if the have a Dig Dug in stock. I wasn't aware of the price being THAT affordable. With that knowledge, I'm 100% on the ball on getting a Dig Dug machine. Thank you for the time you put into your video & honest opinions about the product. Consider me subscribed, Boss.

Awesome to hear, dude! Hopefully they’ll still be some available at that price. Now that they’ve officially announced the new ones though, I wouldn’t be surprised if you find one even lower. They’ve blown out full size 1ups as low as $75. So surely these will hit that mark soon!

In the UK we have the pac-man countercade with Galaga as the second game. The listing on our stores says PAC World same as in the US, but a great surprise to see Galaga instead, definitely makes it worth it. Apart from that though we don’t really see many of these machines come up. I would definitely buy a dig dug countercade but no chance finding one here

Strange that they don’t have them there. Pac Man/Galaga is definitely the most desirable combo in my opinion.

I bought the 1st version off of Amazon. I never seen the $99 smaller version. The artwork on this is spot on. The newer version that I saw on the video doesn't have the multicolor tulips as seen on the larger model. This lack of Bezel art makes the cab look squished together. The newer one looked cheap compared the the older one.

That’s good advice, Mike. I should’ve mentioned that I wouldn’t recommend using a drill as I did in the video. You can feather the trigger on it and just ease it in with this thing, but if you slipped, it’d be bad.

I got 4 of the 5 countercades for 65 dollars each last year on Black Friday. I got dig dug, space invaders and centipede at Walmart and galaga from target online. for what I payed there worth it for that price. I think they were just trying to clear them out since they weren't selling to well.

Good points. Yeah Ive had people comment saying these were seen at TJMaxx stores for $79. I checked my local one months ago and they had em for that, but only the DigDug which I obviously don’t need. Apparently that one didn’t sell well? Target still sellin the PacMan one for $199. That’s the price of the full sized one! So yeah, no one should be paying these prices. Thanks for watching this!

Same sized screen just smaller cab and horribly shrunken Bezel art to make the screen look bigger. Dig Dug and the Pooka are missing from the Marquee, though this would probably be corrected once these came out (though I have yet to see one).

I looked and it’s apparently just shot back up to 150. Which is stupid because some of the big cabs are down to 150 now! It’ll only be temporary. If they wanna blow em out, they’ll have to come down again so I would keep checkin.

I've owned the dig dug one since it came out. I don't recommend it unless you're a huge fan. Dig dug is fine, plays accurately to arcade, already hit 1 million with 5 man mode, which is standard for this. The cocktail and american version uses extras at 10k/40k/40k and is easier. Dig Dug 2 is unplayable, and since they mapped one button to the right and one to left, its useless. I've already disassembled it, and converted it to a multi-countercade, to play all the other games I want to play properly. I upgraded it to a 13 inch tablet PC, which gives me a bigger screen, and also runs games without any external attachments. Will post a video. I'm probably going to put some volcano buttons for player 1 and 2, since the ones the have get in the way when you're playing. Forget about countercades unless you don't have room for a full size one. They're not going to make bigger versions of these titles though. later -1

They’re jumpin down insane rabbitholes according to the CES Displays. Making replica minicades of the old tabletop frogger/dk ones from long ago (so why shrink the countercade?) and making plug n plays to try and smoke one out of AtGames’s bag. They’re wanting to sell but not necessarily innovate. There’s always a shadiness in there somewhere.

I actually reposted this video to reflect the information explained here, after misinterpreting that the screen was somehow larger. Multiple people wrote in saying I was mistaken and it’s actually a 7” screen now, not an 8”. So I don’t know what to think. Except that Arcade1Up isn’t very forthcoming about specs...
