That might be, but the game selection and controls were known since they debuted it as karate champ
a year ago.
Also, it didn't stop it from selling out. So, it's just a matter of modding it, if people really want to fix things.
Nothing different, from all their other cabinets (except maybe Star Wars).

I think you're missing the point....
The fact that folks are complaining shows they understand the difference between an 8 way and 4 way and game play. Gripes about screen orientation also shows a desire to be more true to the originals. I think it's a bit of a maturing market and Arcade1up will need to do a better job of grouping games together. Defender slipped by, and a few folks didn't like the controller scheme, but seeing many more folks unhappy with the burgertime controls. I get that these are all data east, but they aren't good candidates for a single cabinet. Hopefully Arcade1up does a better job in the future grouping the games together.
I mean, it's a burgertime cabinet, but the controls aren't setup for burgertime. That's kinda screwy.

Hasn't sold out --- They still have 400 available on their site and that is after 1500 dropped off the inventory system without being sold ( went from just under 2K units in stock one day to 470 units the next when they had only sold approx 1000 the entire time they had pre-orders open ( Probably shipped to a wholesaler like HSN similar to what they did with a large portion of the 8K Marvel limited edition cabs the Marvel Limited Edition cabs that started showing up in Canada for sale through one of their wholesalers. ! )

It's just a shame. The shape and artwork on the cabinet was a home run.
It'll be a good modder cabinet, but it would be nice if the cabinet was good as is.

looks like they will be addressing the issue:
Someone posted about the 4 way/8 way issue in the official facebook group and John D from Arcade1up responded: "We understand the complaints and are doing something about it. Please stay tuned and thanks for the feedback!"

Well they can't fix it without breaking the other games on the cab. Karate Champ and Bad Dudes absolutely need 8 way joysticks.
