Arcade 1Up's Ikea cabinets

The cool thing about BYOAC is it's always been very accepting. Quite the opposite of KLOV. Someone needs help with their Midway Arcade Treasures machine, they come to BYOAC and there are people who offer help and not belittle their choice by calling their machines toys, trash, etc.
If the winds are changing, and I'm part of the old guard, well, that sucks. If this is just normal resistance between the old and new, akin to Rasberry Pi's, LCD monitors, etc - it'll work itself out over time.

Allow me to take back "toys" as I referenced it as an insult. It's technically a toy. I think it's said with a bit of snide, but that's moot.

But they aren't. I think these are neat but I wouldn't advocate buying it. They are better than the midway cabs; and if someone made a post asking for help, I'd help. Im actually surprised there havent been any owner posts about them.

We are relics. People these days only use facebook or reddit fan pages to post questions.... sad but true.

Someone asked about the Centipede and Millipede games, being
smaller on the deluxe, and that the aspect ratios of both
games looked wrong on there, and on the regular cabinets.
So I looked into it. The arcade 1up pictures, used stock photos,
so they aren't exactly accurate, but are close. The deluxe image
IS incorrect, so I had to fix it to match.
I used reference issues from youtube.
Bottom Line:
====================================================
Aspect ratio is close on Regular, and Deluxe versions.
Incorporating 5x vertical scaling, and 4x horizontal gives
1280x960 pixel resolution on the 1280x1024 screen. With 32
pixels unused on sides.
So, yes, the images are mostly correct, but much smaller.
The standard cabinet is 71% the size of the arcade screen
on a standard 19 inch monitor.
The deluxe cabinet is 60% the size of the Arcade 1up
standalone cabinet.
