Very true.  That's why it's step 2 of the design process in the What type of build meets my needs? section of the FAQ.   :cheers:

The All Killer No Filler game lists are a great starting point for creating a personalized game list.   ;D

EDIT: Forgot to mention that if you want to play Defender there's a MAME LUA plugin that lets you use an 8-way stick to control your ship instead of a 2-way stick, "Reverse" button, and "Thrust" button.  Plugin requires MAME v0.227 or newer.

You might want to consider using a flat-pack kit like the ones produced by Haruman and laminated artwork -- unlike the cheap artwork on the A1up control panel that wears off unless you use a "deck protector".  :puke

you're a couple of years behind on your comments.

they've fixed that issue years ago, and besides better quality, they always include plexiglass
protectors.

you might want to read from the posts of a few years back.

Glad to hear they've improved the quality of the artwork.

I figured they included the plexi because they still had the wear issues.   >:D   :lol

I almost tripped over an Arcade1Up at ZapCon cause I was looking forward.
