ARCADE1UP Class of 81’ Deluxe Arcade Machine for Home - 5 Feet Tall - 12 Classic Games

Great fun and reasonable pricing (2024) Assembly is complex but straight forward ( we got two: about 1.2 hrs to assemble the 1st one...45 minutes on #2) Read thru all the directions prior to assembly. Identify all pieces and organize them for assembly. This is a home use only and definately not commercial grade arcade game. As such, you shouldn't be disappointed and you will have many hours of family fun.

This is a supper fun and authentic looking replica of a standing coin operated game machine. Galaga and Ms PAC Man seem like quintessential old school games and both are on the device. The controllers work well and game play feels almost like the arcade. Many say it’s simple to put together but it takes some time and patience. The only real negative is the weight of the machine. It is not heavy enough for real game play as it will move if on a non carpet floor. My solution was to buy 50lbs of weight to place inside the machine a weight it down. Also placed non skid feet in the base. With these modifications it feels solid.

I love the retro-gaming concept and this doesn't disappoint. The amount of games on the system is really what sold me, the assembly wasn't too difficult and it looks great!I had to get two of them, so my reviews are both very similar.

Great machine! It’s a little short but bought it for my dad who loved playing a couple of these games as a kid. Both games were on this model. He stayed up late with grandchildren teaching them how to play. I get photos of him getting busted playing at random times. Always either a focused look or a smile!

I order mines at the end of November 2024, received it the first week of December 2024 and let it sit in the box a few weeks. When I finally put it together I noticed I was missing a piece. Luckily it was the piece needed at the very top, piece B2 so I was able to still put the game together and play it. I went onto Amazon, went to support, and was sent to the Arcade 1 Up website. I sent in my concerned and someone contacted me shortly after via email and asked for the serial and model number on the arcade, my address, and a picture of the piece I was missing from the instruction book. I received the missing piece in the mail maybe a couple weeks later I can’t remember. I’ve seen others complaining about missing pieces but it was very easy for me to get the piece. As for the game play, I love it!!! It’s a piece of my childhood.

I bought this product for my child for Christmas. I grew up playing these video games and wanted my son to experience the same. It arrived very quickly. It was easy to put together but uou definitely need another person to help. It wifi and Bluetooth compatible. My don is 5 and it was very easy to use. I put it together downstairs and moved it upstairs. It wasn't that heavy but definitely sturdy. It putting on carpet make sure you strap it yo the wall because it will rock.

This is a great product for anyone with an 80s classic video nostalgia. It's olny 3/4 size, but compared to the price over a full size old school one this is good enough. My wife and I like playing for too score on most of the games. All 10 games are fun, but we like some better than others (just like anyone else).

Only had a couple days, but am very happy so far. Gameplay is fun and realistic experience to arcade. Kids are loving it. Love the wifi and automatic update uploads. I think the joystick is fine. Size is perfect for my space. Already planning to get Mortal Kombat edition as well.Assembly: I would not say easy, but moderately difficult. Took me two hours working alone. Instructions say Phillips head screwdriver, which is true, but you soon realize several sizes are needed as some screws are very small. I also used a small electric screw driver against the instruction's advice as getting some screws to bite proved difficult. Overall, I would say if you can put together a large IKEA dresser, you should be able to handle this. Instructions are picture only, like IKEA, so look at the pictures carefully while working each step. Not too heavy, my wife and I were able to move easily.Update: Register for the extended warranty (free)! My control board failed after 5 months. Company was responsive and helpful with new board on its way. Comes with 3 month warranty and extended is 6 months...worth it.
