With its increased size over standard Arcade1Up game machines, the PRO SERIES features a new 19” LCD screen that provides a 5:4 arcade aspect ratio​, with stunning vibrancy, contrast​, and viewing angles​. Upgraded speakers​ and speaker grills accentuate every strike executed.

For retrogaming “control freaks,” the PRO SERIES features upgraded joysticks and more generous spacing between components that improves precision​.

And yeah, Arcade1Up’s already gorgeous game machines get next-level aesthetics with the PRO SERIES. Eye-popping faux chrome trim runs around the cabinet edges, and a cosmetic 3D molded coin door​ with light-up coin slots for 1-2 player start really drives that nostalgia home.

you said they couldn't make full sized cabinets because of licensing (which makes zero sense BTW) yet here is a full sized cab.

I'm going to say I agree with you. The size was always rumored to be licensing and cost related. The price on this cabinet is supposed to be $1,000, so the price seems to have jumped considerably - maybe that's to account for some additional licensing?

They've had some success in the home arcade market - perhaps they are able to work out some better licensing deals?

I don't know. I'm not their target customer.

Thats still true.

We won't know the full details until they specify how this is going to work.

Will it still be an assemble it yourself, or buy it prebuilt.

That makes the difference.

so they've come full circle.

large size, pro parts, larger screen, better sound.



will have to wait on the reviews.

apparently the economies of scale don't apply to these. only 500 made and sold from their website.

so yes, they were able to do it. but lets see if they carry on with other titles.

there is a NBA Jam shaq XL edition which is almost as large too.

would buy when readily available for half. perhaps they wanna start selling blank cabinet too. they are leaving money on the table because lots and lots of people wanna buy a kit over just 1 game.
