This is definitely one of the best countercades Arcade1up has made. Awesome games. And there is no way you can beat that price. I mean some My Arcades are going for $60.00. It's a no-brainer. Great review, Phil.
Wish I knew about this. Marvel vs Capcom and x men were my brother's and friends childhoods. For my kids b days and get togethers I always have it running in the back ground for the younger kids, even my aunt's would play it lol
THats one cool countercade, nice pickup Phil, I do like the way these look for sure. The plastic thing is crazy not sure why they do that. THe controls and screen are solid on this one!
Thanks Carl, I thought a few screws and we’re good then the top has excess:) oh well finally cleaned it up. It does look bigger in person not a bad arcade to have.
The Punisher can also be had on the original Marvel Superheroes Wave 3 3/4 cab. I bought mine 2 years ago at Walmart on clearance for $200 plus $50 for the riser.
I’ll always remember walking past Marvel Superheroes at Walmart for 248, still regret it to this day. Awesome cab and the Best way to play Punisher! Thanks for watching 👊
Nice review! I have this one with the mystery encoder mod and it’s one of my most played, if not the most. I couldn’t believe the quality of the monitor when I first got it. I’m so used to these things being awful 😂
Nice PD7. That countercade for that price is such a steal. I love my MK countercade. The screen is perfect, I agree with the speaker being not that loud but still awesome machine. I finally got confirmation from retro shooter that they will be sending tracking number soon. Can’t wait for that to arrive. Do you think we will see more deals come Black Friday on Arcade1up cabs? They have F&F for $524.99. Thanks again.
I think more Kohls cash and Amazon points definitely, but there will be some surprises next week too. A little disappointing F&F only $75 off, 100-150 would be great! I heard there’s an update for more games on retro so definitely hook up to you’re WiFi when you set it up for automatic updates :)
This is the one countercade I had trouble resisting last week. I love all the games on here and that GI joel mod is cool. However theres a limited edition Marvel Super Heroes cabinet about 1.5hrs away from me for $275 that's also tempting me. Decisions Decisions.
You know, if they release a few more countercades with several games/classic games at this price point they could see a resurgence of sales. People that aren't willing to lay out $400+ for a game or two and don't have the room for a 3/4 scale cabinet would definitely spring for one of these at $100. *edit* - looking at Amazon it looks like most of their countercades are around/north of $200 which seems nuts to me.
I agree, actually thought a year ago we would see a Countercade for every 3/4 cab. There really making a comeback right now, I’d like to see more next year :)
Great review Phil! 💥💥👊💥💥 Totally worth the $99. An awesome Capcom lineup! paPOw!!! It's definitely Wolverine in the Face/off artwork against Thanos. 👍👍
I have the 3/4 scale MSH limited edition cab. I wonder if I get this countercade if I can switch out pcb's. The only game I would lose is X-men COTA but the countercade has the 2 vs games
That’s the thing A1up does is make us buy several cabs because of those 1-2 games. Like Big Blue having Knights of the Round. I don’t know 100% if the pcb works on a 4.3 or 5.4 monitor. Waiting for someone to figure it out, because that would be great. COTA is the main reason I can’t part with mvc2 cab :)
Thanks for the heads up and the great review! I just ordered one for pickup at Target. I’ll give it to my kids for Christmas. They will be pumped for these games. I’m very curious to learn more about that Batocera mod.
I’m glad you found one! These are selling out quick, this is perfect for the mod because of the 6 buttons can play anything. One of my favorite countercades :)
@@PDX7 Speaking of the buttons, can you swap them out for Happ or Sanwa like you can with the 3/4 size cabs? Wasn’t sure if there were size constraints for the Happ buttons fitting, but that is what I normally use.
@@PDX7 Thanks. I’ve mainly swapped out buttons on my Arcade1up cabs, I haven’t done a joystick swap yet, but that’s good to know. Thanks for the info, Phil.
I love this countercade, even though I am not a fan of this footprint. I've had it awhile and modded it, trouble is, I don't have a home for it. May just bring it to work to sit on my desk for breaks lol
It’s hard finding a spot for these if we don’t have a bar top. I have an iircade stand works perfectly and now Joel is making XL stands that are slim it can fit in a tight spot. Can’t wait for it going to put nba jam on top. They are perfect for breaks :)
I would hack the speaker put a external oit put jack so 8 get to plug in any speakers or make it blue tooth audio.I am sure you can find a blue tooth module to put in there and keep the stock speakers working to.
You think $99 is a great deal for this diamond in a rough then also consider that you can have batocera operating on it as well and have hundred of games, truly a gem
One thing I'd like to point out for the sound, I'd personally would plug in a bluetooth speaker via AUX with the headphone Jack and the sound will be loud and crisp.
@@PDX7 it should work, I've tried this method with handhelds like the 3ds and psp, makes those old sounds so good especially those rhythm games like rockband unplugged.
Mine doesn't go straight to the main menu. It only goes straight to msh and can't get out of it to change the game. Tried holding down p1 button and even tried holding down p1 and p2 together but still nothing. The buttons work because I can confirm two player mode to play, but it just won't go to the main menu. Any idea how to fix this?
@@PDX7 sure would, with all the arcade marvel games yet to be released I hope we can get a collection just like street fighter or the fighting collection.
😊 love the review :D i was happy to get it in facebook market place new in box unfortatley all targets sold out off this iteam but i was happy to get it i never open it i like haveing it on my shelve i highly doubt i will ever part with this thing is a great size and something i think i would keep for years to come :) ill keep it in the box i have a mortal kombat one maby i can mod that one and somehow get it to play MVC 1 and the punisher i dont mind opening that one but this one is a gem :D
It’s a masterpiece Prince Vinny :) definitely something to hold on to! It’s great to hear from you, are you interested in any of the sales today or hopefully later next week?
@@PDX7 same here :D yeah am intrested in the Xmen arcade1up but it has to be realy deeply discounted before i can pick up space also is a factor for me so have to be pretty selective of what i pick up next what u looking to get from arcade1up???
@princevinny0073 the 499 isn’t working they really need to give us X-Men for $349 I think that would really move these. I’m watching both NBA Jam Deluxe and Shaq. 299-399 I’ll buy :) hold your ground even if it takes until January/ February things will drop!
Just searched for this. These vs games where popular. Can't fit a big one in the home. This will do. wondering if it has a HDMI out to connect to the TV. They should of made the screen same with size with of the controller. Whatever. Some of these arcade games should of had a PC or android version. I kinda running out of space for stuff.
Thank you for watching Delta X5, I’m not sure about the hdmi out but you can add games through usb drive. The 6 button layout is perfect for that option. Perfect for small spaces, definitely head to Target this weekend $149.99 before it’s sold out :)
Yes that’s right because of the usb port, there’s great features on these countercades. I hope they go back to the 2 player vs the 1 player from this year. Thanks for watching 👊
I just saw some things at Best Buy that I might reference to Countercade screen in an upcoming video comparisons. It’s not as bad as you think :) Thanks for watching 👊
Wait, not only does he do the best Walk and Talks but he also does great reviews...what can't this PD7 guy do? Being I'm the head salesman for @GIJoel Industries, I need this cab to showcase his awesome risers!
