Is Arcade1Up Done For 2024?

I've given up on 1up ever giving us our Robotron 2084 MichaelB. I'm starting to look in other directions like Retro Lizard making me a Robotron cab. Thanks for the afternoon work break! See you in a couple of days!

Use that Canadian charm to get D Mac on the show and get some answers.

They would be smart to drop something special for the holidays, but I don't think they are smart so I am not expecting anything.

Excellent assessment
👊🏻😎🕹️

MB - You've mentioned this topic so many times I'm starting to feel like you know something (and/or are trying to get the community to push for something). Otherwise... why bring it up? I can't imagine A1U sent you out to tell everyone what they're NOT doing. Unless they're thinking this will somehow drum-up sales for the claw machine and Pac-Man because people might otherwise hold out hope for something else?

You could’ve just removed the 2024 in your headline and that would’ve summed it up better since John D left

Claw machine is ass.

I agree, I think they're done for 2024. Let's see what NWT announces as their first larger cabinet for 2025.

you got a better chance of your wife putting out then then putting out another cabinet lol hahaha

Sleak?!?!?

Ya know James hates everything.. BUT LOVES PENIS . LOL true story lol

Claw machine??? That’s what you’re looking forward to? Seriously?

2024 is a wrap... Arcade1up was a epic fail this year!! They should of released something wicked for the holidays but there too fucking stupid to realize this.

No American Laser Games cab + no NARC = no more cabs necessary.

Im just saying the claw machine had potential but they need to add the coin option. Plus the claw should be alittle bit stronger.

I too, am Canadian and the claw machine is what is the most exciting to me in a very long time. Bummed it isn't coming to Canada but that also means I won't be a test consumer who has to deal with potentially a crap product.

Honestly, I am kind of happy there isn't a whole lot I want to buy from Arcade 1up. Collectivey I've spent multiple thousand dollars over the years for cabinets where I could be putting that money towards other things. This year I bought a used Marvel Vs Capcom 2 cab and I'm pretty happy there. If Arcade 1up was doing all the cabs I could ever want all at once, I would be in debt.

A lite year from Arcade1up is good for my wallet!

Maybe they’ll drop a pacman for the holidays, I been needing one to go with my 5 others

they kill the new product releases by asking too much IMO. a lot of us got in the habit of buying when on sale. i'll wait for a sale once again. i was considering the new claw machine. for $399 it will probably be a buy for me.

Hate all pac man's !!

I feel like Arcade 1up is a dead carcass being dragged around. I would love to see a pic of a Pac Man ghost with an Arcade1up logo on it. Im still waiting to see what John D does. Right now, I would love to have better replacements of my existing cabs like a better Simpsons and Turtles where the control panel is further apart and some flaws like the Turtles intro and that strange shadowing under the characters in The Simpsons being fixed. An NFL Blitz that has late hits and an NBA Jam that also has NBA Showtime and day one purchase for me.

Maybe for xmas 2024 they will bless us with a Street Fighter World Warrior Cab

I'm relatively new at the hobby having started this year {4 cabs (Atari, Pacman, MK2 and Cap vs Mar) and 1 4K pinball Addams F}. I would like to see older cabs that I missed out on but I'm over all the Pacman variations. Star Wars in a Deluxe would be nice. If there was an upgrade for the claw to bring it up to at least 16oz, then I'd be game for that.

They need to get back cool with Sega and release 2 titles...best of Sega racers Daytona USA,2,3, virtual racing,and Sega gt. And the best of Sega shooters... virtual cop 1 & 2, house of the dead 1-4 make me CEO 😉 oh and star wars racer will out sell Atari Star wars any day

....and since arcade 1 up can't release burger time any more just give us a bad dudes/robo cop cab since data east made both games .last but not least a Tron deluxe or xl cab

Imagine in 2025 they come out with - Jurassic Park, Daytona, House of the dead, Smash TV, Star Wars Trilogy Arcade…THAT would be amazing (and were I thought they would end up going). If next year is claw machines and Pac-Man. Pfft, forget it. I’d maybe settle for a deluxe Simpsons or Turtles 😂

As far as long time fans are concerned it's the end of Arcade 1up full stop.

Done for 2024? They never started 😂

Why not get full sized games instead of these? I bought a Golden Tee Complete machine for $450. It needed a little cleaning up, but it's the real game. Between a few original cabinets and vertical and horizontal MAME cabs to fill in the game list, I just don't get these for actual collectors. They seem like they're made for a person that buys one at Christmas time and forgets about it by February.

I bought a Golden Tee Deluxe this year, but that was it because the rest of what they released this year didn’t appeal to me. I think the slim cadey design and that new Pac Man are steps in the wrong direction. I’m ok with the claw machine because it represents something new and different, but it doesn’t appeal to me. I wanted XL Star Wars, Street Fighter, Mortal Kombat and Smash TV/Robotron. I feel like their last truly exciting cab was Time Crisis and it’s been disappointing since.

All I want for Christmas is a Robotron 2084 cab. It may be time to build my own, if Arcade1Up cannot create anything other than re-runs of their existing products and a claw machine.

Is this a rerun? LOL Mike kills Arcade1up in 2024, Danny kills the AtGames Influencer Group, this community keeps getting better and better.

I loved this years releases! Its been a great year. The claw machine and the Midway cab are super cool! I think they have one more for us before the end of the year. I honestly cant wait til the xmas specials.

Arcade1up isn’t just done in 2024, they never got started. Literally everything they released in 2024 is 💩 and I passed on all of it.

Man, when I bought my first couple A1U cabs I like many of us in this community was really hoping they would expand their license holdings/sharings whatever. Since they released Simpsons/TMNT, which came to arcades in the early 90s, I was hoping they would expand their Konami titles and announce a Lethal Enforcers cab since they've done light gun games already and nothing. Just the same cabs/titles skinned differently. I think I"m done with A1U until they get their crap together. If they're planning on changes in the future to stay afloat, I'll believe it when I see it.

If so say goodbye to half your income sellout

Arcade 1up " Suck " this year for 2024 and for next year, 2025! Buried them and moved on! Arcade1up kill themselves with they selfish of not putting out new titles for the die-hard and new comers! So, at the end of the day, i have pocket full money!

7oz is a lot of cannabis!.... You could fit like 3lbs in there!... Best claw machine ever!!

Imagine if Arcade 1up goes belly up. Their machines will go from $400 to $2000. They could become quite the collectors items on the market then.

i dont get why they dont buy the rights to double dragons.

What's your rec about getting an asteroids cabinet? I really couldn't find any Arcade 1up versions, so maybe it's just going after some rare original cabinet that I stumble across???

Just disappointing at this point. Switched to just building my own.

The jazz hands get me every time lol

Ima get more I like em

Their website is pretty much empty aside from about a dozen of their standard size cabs. Looks like my unopened T2 is going to be quite valuable 💪

Arcade 1up was awesome when they first started coming out and were recreating all the old arcade games. Now it is pathetic and it's just re-release of the same old junk. Clearly there's something going on in the company and they're not getting licensing for stuff. Where is NARC? Where is Operation Wolf? Where is Double Dragon? Why stop? Keep it rolling!

I think in a few years arcade one up will be a dead company.

Will we get newer games at some point? I mean really spring forward a bit?

I have no complaints about them re-releasing the same games. I have complaints about their terrible, laggy hardware, specifically the really bad LED screen on the Class of 1981 cabinet that has a 1/4 second lag time between the input and what happens on the screen. And that can't be corrected by any updates or replacing the stick. So disappointed. Some people don't notice or care about this lag, but it's very noticeable to others. My advice is to always try before you buy whenever possible.

arcade1up is not dead and they are not saying they are going away. There is no "going out of business" on their site.

Hi Everybody, Thanks so much for watching! Do you think Arcade1Up is done announcing products for 2024?
