I spent $10,000 on this CUSTOM ARCADE MACHINE!! Was it worth it? 

Are you still happy with the 50" screen or does it feel too big / too close up

They are very impressive and extremely tempting. However, I learned long ago; You're NOT going to play Resident Evil nor Legend of Zelda on a Arcade cab. You're NOT really gonna play Console games on a Cabinet. I took a A1UP and installed EVERY Arcade Game that boots into the frontend @ start up. Best to buy a 16TB Hyperspin HDD and install it on a dedicated PC connected to you TV.

Looks great. Congrats. I played so many of your favourite growing up. Sunset riders. Golden axe. I love it. It costs but you can tell it’s premium and well built. Will enjoy for years to come.

Ahhhh you love the classic beat 'em games too! We're the same age... oh the memories. Thanks for reviewing this machine!

That is amazing! All the OG Classics under one roof. Golden Axe I remember playing on the sega mega drive back in 90’s. So many wonderful memories play them types of games ☺️🙌 Love the video brother ❤️💪

This video is kind of old, but if you haven't figured out by now, the 4 way joy stick is for the old games like Pac-Man, Ms. Pac-Man, and other games that used a 4 way joy stick. It's actually easier to play these games with the 4 way rather than the 8 way more modern games use. If you ever tried playing Super Pac-man with an 8 way joy stick you'll realize why you want a 4 way.

This takes me back to the days I played Cadillacs & dinosaurs,Captain Commando,Hook,Samurai Shodown : Amakusa's revenge to name a few.. One day I'd like to get a custom arcade made, hopefully for much less lol. Its nice to experience the nostalgia of youth again with friends but most importantly to be able to share those moments with your own kids. Great vid!

Extreme Home Arcades has a great community to help solve those emulation and hardware problems that come up. Big Box (Launchbox) that they use is really awesome. Really like your machine, very nice. I'm really into TecknoParrot games at the moment after gorging on these retro games. Cool video, like your channel a lot.

So inspiring, thank you for sharing

6:00 Your artwork & concept of the gorgeous fighting game girls is great.

Man, I was so crazy about Golden Axe. I just had to play every time i found a machine with it! Great game!!

Thank you for making this video. It has really changed my perspective on the arcade 1 up systems. I would love to see the arcade version of killer instinct running on your machine please!

Very late to the party but wow what an exceptional video and cabinet bro. Thanks for sharing. I will certainly be picking up a Megacade *SOME* day. As for the price, might be controversial to say, but what a lot of people don't realize is, when you buy this monster of a cab, you're getting over 200,000 games with it. Now I'm not going to get into the gray area here, but if you were to purchase every single game individually on its own, you'd end up paying over a million dollars lol. Good value for the money? Absolutely!

Really cool machine! The art work is great on it. I did notice it looked like the capcom logo was revered at the top. Is that just from the camera or do you have to send them mirroed art work to get it back correct?

Great review!!!

Awesome machine! Great video

Awesome arcade you have, i just finished my own arcade and i can say its worth it. I hope it has a coin container, because thats the thing that makes it different, from a topbar arcade, or even holding a controller on a pc. The song of the coin getting in and giving you a credit its priceless. They arent hard to addm i can see you already have 12v for the lights of the bottons, so its easy to wire and to cut the wood. You just need some daisies for the negative and 12 v and, another negative and sharing the cable of the coin slot. But most of the time they have two pins on jamma cables.

Now THAT'S a Commitment...All The Bells & Whistles+Ongoing Customer Service+Execution of Personal Customization = BIG WIN!

I like the video, it basically started the same way with me. I wanted a cabinet or cabinets. I did research on Multicades from damn near everyone because I played Street Fighter 2 and TMNT. Just by looking at elbow room was a deal breaker from Arcade1Up. I told myself I need the best of the best. Went yolo all over my megacade and never looked back. I think I made the right choice

Also have one of these and had an additional request to add to extra buttons for players one and two to play games like mortal kombat 10 and injustice on steam. Very sick. Bought a multi port USB to add DDR dance pads - now this plays everything.

Great arcade; the games you highlighted are very much a gateway into my childhood as well. Between your gaming, old cartoon and anime tastes, we must be similarly aged 😄. It's like looking back on my own childhood. Price seems steep given the ROMs and emulators are pretty much freely available if you know where to look, although I really have no idea of the cost of producing the physical product itself between the cabinet/displays/sticks/light guns etc. Definitely a great piece to have as a collector though. Thanks for the vid 👍

Thank you for taking me back in time. All the games you went through were my favourites as well Street Fight vs Marvel Sunset Riders TMNT Golden Axe 🔥 Simpsons Was just hoping to see Die Hard lol. Awesome review. 💯💯💯

I have a self built arcade cabinet with a 48” lg oled tv with a high end comp. It get used a lot but I’ve moved to tuning my BMW suv. I have more fun in my 3.3 second SUV and whooping on sports cars.

Great machine! So do they do free upgrades like if a “PS8” comes out in the years ahead and they have the ability to put “PS3-4” on that cabinet do you send them something and they upgrade it for life?

I have the ATlegends with a Rasberry Pi attached. Great value for money :) Great machine you have there. Regards from Norway and much love.

oh man, Sunset Riders is such a great arcade/SNES game. One of my favorite couch coop/arcade coop games

My favorite arcade games during my childhood were TMNT, Simpsons, Tekken 3, Cruz'n USA, X-men, House of the Dead, Metal Slug and Area 51.

@primecollectibles can you tell me where you found the image of Mai for the side of your cabinet. I can’t seem to find it. Love the collection

Awesome cab, does this have berserk and Robotron?

it's a nice set up and if it's worth that cost to you, then that's all that matters. we all have our own ideas on what the perfect set up is. I started out with a pandora stick, with 5k games hooked up to my 65Inch TV, then I got an old PC gutted the pandora into a controller loaded it all up with batocera has over 100k games. Now I've built a cabinet from scratch, took 2 days to build, it houses that same old PC and uses Sanwa sticks and buttons, has a 60inch screen and has 3 screen marque utilizing 3 old PC monitors and custom graphics on cab..the whole build has cost £1000

I built a gaming pc and put the games on a 120 inch screen. I bought the Retrostation 4tb hard drive with over 70,000 games for 150 bucks. Used my JVC projector and everything runs through a Denon receiver. I got a Sinden light gun that works on any screen.

Seeing this machine in person I have to say its really impressive. Definitely a nice additional for anyone's showplace. So much better then the arcade 1up units.

Beautiful cabinet!! Now you need a Stern Godzilla pinball machine. 😁

The controller layout seems to have everything you could possibly need! I love the integrated marquee display. Don't think I've seen that in a mame/emulation system before but I bet it adds to the experience! Very happy that I have the skills to build my own cause that price is a bit prohibitive!

Year later. What you think about it now? Still dig it?

Hey Jayson - Dude I gotta give it up for your hot diggity taste in gaming machines. This was spectacular and the time was so appropriate because I took my 1st grader to the arcade at Pinstack Bowling yesterday and we spent the entire time playing Arcade Halo and Jurassic Park shooters. And while that awesome experience was on my mind, you just blew me away with this DOPE arcade machine. It just took my back to being a kid and biking on my Huffy bike to 7-11 and the neighborhood arcade afterwards to meet my brother and all our friends to basically game all Saturday afternoon and evening blowing out the entire paper route job allowance in one day followed by deep dish Godfathers Pizza and Slurpees afterwards. While I definitely don't have the coin for something as awesome as what you have, I was curious what you think of some of those more affordable bootleg Chinese arcade couch cabinets on Amazon and EBay. They claim to have like thousands of games too but many are repeats. Also, TMNT, Golden Axe and SF II were my favs too. Do you know how some players get random characters like Thundercats, DonaldDuck, and Justice League to pop up on Street Fighter? I've been seeing a bunch of replay videos on RU-vid about that recently. Thanks again for showing us this tour of your super fine Arcade cabinet.

20:45 Hey, what?! How is the overlay/bezel cycling through different pictures for the same game?! I have Launchbox/BigBox and MAME, and I've never seen this before

Awesome setup! Can I ask what shelves you use for your figures?

That is a beautiful arcade machine. In my opinion, it's easily worth $8 grand. Just setting up the software with all those roms could be hundreds of hours of work. I personally would rather have this as opposed to a dozen arcade1ups with maybe 50 games. One game recommendation for the spinner control, Disc of Tron. It's older than the fighting side scrollers but really fun gameplay. My local arcade had the environmental version you sat in like the Star Wars cab. We dumped a lot of quarters in that machine.

There are so many arcade owners who don't convey the experiences well and aren't actually coordinated when they play. This guy may be extremely rusty at Tekken but atleast it feels like he was actually conscious while playing all those years ago 😂 very good video. A high potential youtuber He's even playing Sunset Riders now 😂 it's like he grew up with the people I know

That's incredible, i wish i had that 😮

I wanna see you make a short video playing one of my favorite games: Crazy Climber, where you have to use 2 joysticks. Then test it with Robotron and all the Crazy Climber sequels like Hyper and part 2.

How is the optical gun accuracy? Crossbow and , Cheyenne for example are just not the same experience unless you have the light guns. The way it's organized and the amazing marquee, all the joysticks, trackballs, etc. I think you got a bargain. Would love to see a video of "Toobin! '", that's a unique concept! Floating down the river throwing beer cans LOL!

This is one of the best set ups I’ve seen for a single arcade cab. Kudos on that brother. In my opinion it’s definitely worth the 10G’s 👍🏼

Nah that is mad!! Literally a dream arcade machine ! 🎉

I have the same arcade machine I got mine machine in April! I think it’s fun with friends and family! I have to start using my light guns more often though!

Loved this video. Make more with you playing them. BTW I buy statues based on whether I like them. Not on resale value.

I was thinking about one of these. You pretty much sealed the deal. I was just wondering if it had ability to play time crisis, area 51, virtual cop and so on

Just curious if it has all the Sega arcade classics like Daytona, Space Harrier, The House of the Dead, LA Machine Guns etc?

I have one by Arcades R Fun as well, its awesome! Pro tip: get yourself the Nintendo Switch online retro controllers! They're bluetooth and can be connected to the cabinet fairly easily. Then you can play N64, SNES, NES, Genesis, etc. with actual hardware!

This is awesome. I am also an arcade enthusiast, but couldn't really justify something that big, so i got an arcade bartop, with 5000 games, that only costs 300 euros.

Is that an oled screen? Can it emulate graphics with an accurate CRT look with scanlines ect?

I just bought the arcade guys for 899. Plus 395 shipping. Grant it yours looks way more fancey. I have same amount of games on mine. Is 9000 more worth a little fancier cabinet?

I wonder how this compares to Game room Solutions. I’m looking at their model R

It's not worth the money. You can build the same thing and put thousands of games on your own for a decent amount of money. If you have the money to spare and don't care about money then yeah by all means spend that kind of money but you can get that all done for 700 dollars.

So I just finished building something similar myself. I only have a 37 inch screen. I don't have any guns. Mine doesn't look as polished (still good though). I have spent about 3k on just materials and that doesn't include the insane amount of hours I have dumped into this. I still only have less than half the games working. With the after sale support is is worth 8k all day.

Has it got streetfigher rainbow edition 1,2,3? And all the other hacked version of street fighter? Them versions were the reason I bought my mame arcade machine

mind providing a link on where you purchased the machine from

I ordered mine from Dream Arcades and it shipped 48 hours later. I highly recommend them.

I dont remember parents making a bid deal out of N ARC, but they made a huge deal out of Mortal Kombat lol

Awesome review. Im looking to buy a Arcade Machine. Who makes this one you own? Thanks

That’s so awesome makes me wanna sell all my arcade 1ups and just buy this !

if you could do it all over again would you buy this cabinet again?if so would you stick with the same company you purchased from or would you go with extreme home arcades?

Wow! There's a saying in my country. Money must flow. You live by the rules! I'm jealous. I need this too. I've enjoyed this video. I would like to see more. It's a part of a mancave and i'm building mine too. So any ideas are always welcome.

Everything you picked was a huge part of my childhood! If you ever want a CRT style Arcades with a retro style cabinet let me know.

Which company did you get this machine from?

I enjoyed your video. I don't have a cabinet but I bought close to 40 terabytes of content and a high end pc. You and I like the same kinds of games. And thankfully there are a few new games coming out that are retro inspired. Cowabunga collection, shredders revenge, final vandetta to name a few. I enjoy 3d games also but the old stuff is what is near and dear to my heart. Make more videos and I'm sure people will watch. Game on

That's nuts.

3:05 what's the lifespan of the computers in these arcades?

Not gonna lie you kind of swayed on trying to get one of these because I was hesitant on how the machines are and I don't hear them as much as I feel I should but they look great. I'd love a custom one myself but I'm no artist or designer but this machine is stunning!

Is it possible to install two trackballs on the control panel 🤔

Haha I used to have my own little hack when it came to bc ferries, but yo your knife trick had me laughin'

I'm curious why you didn't consider the "Atgames Legends Ultimate". I bought mine used off Craigslist for 350, and even with the "bit LCD" it would only set me back around 700. Was it the larger screen, or maybe the "build quality"?

I bought one of this couple years ago, but now am interested in selling it :( Do you know any company that buy’s use custom arcade?

10K is overkill but at least you have a fav section .

Bro the spinner will be for tempest ..give it a go its brilliant ..

Greeaat video. I think eswat was Sega Tryna get the robocop licensed Back then but data east ended up getting it. So they just reskinned what they had and released a nice rolling thunder type game

Does it have the true multi-player games like NFL Blitz and NBA Jam/Showcase. Those cabinets are 3k to 4k a piece and would make this way more valuable? Imo of course.

I used to build those all the time, put a bunch of emulators on it and have some fun

How do you turn the unit on?

How is the light gun in games that use it?

I don't know much about emulation but deep down I would love it if it could be the real thing instead of emulation if that's even possible? can you tell the difference graphics wise? or in its playability? thanks for uploading this video wondering what company should I go with if and when I purchase one.

No one is better than Xtreme Gaming Cabinets (XGC) from Australia, mine 4-player with 8 buttons for player one and two, with 40,000 games, Sinden recoil light guns, Coin Door, led buttons, trackball, pinball buttons, external USBs, Lunchbox/Bigbox and Hyperspin for $2,300 plus $1,400 for shipping. It is still way cheaper. The Beast one (70,000+ games) comes with more stuff and it is more cheaper than this one. $10,000 is too much.

Where did you buy this from?

What company did you purchase this from?

14 weeks was a pipe dream. 28 weeks is amazing tho, for what you get. 😂Would love to play The House of the Dead on it or Tekken 3. Not a patient man but collecting resins? Doesn't add up Jason. 😂

ESWAT looked like it had the same assets and gameplay as the original batman arcade game

Nice machine!

Wow, over 200,000 games!

nice arcade machine and good games just supported u

Awesome room. It was worth it.

What front end is that?

I've been restoring legit arcade games for about 20 years, and polishing emulator compatibility for just as long. I build legit home cabinets, fixtures, and built-in bookcases by trade.I just built a few prototype pedestals and cabs that are way closer to actual arcade spec and build quality, based on actual machine designs, and before paint, they take less than 8 hours. I don't understand why these take so long unless they're outsourcing EVERYTHING but the build and wiring. Ive learned their wrap design is overseas, then printed in michigan, and they have a group that basically refines hyperspin for them. If I get another experienced finish carpenter under me, tell extreme home arcades im coming for them.

$8000 is a family vacation. Wish I could afford it.

Glad you are enjoying your arcade! You could have saved a ton by building one yourself and learning the process of both the hardware and software. There is a ton of information online and communities for everything you could want to know. I know that's not for everyone, but you're going to pay a premium if you avoid the DIY route.

If space and money wouldnt be a problem i would buy one of these too. I have a small house, 2 arcade1up (capcom and midway anniversary) and a pandoras box plus all mini retro consoles. No more space for other stuff. In germany it is not easy to get the cool stuff.

I fully forgot about Sunset Riders!! Battle Axe, yeah obviously

I have 4 arcades, a neogeo, street fighter 2, and alien Vs predator and a pacman cocktail. a super cabinet would be just too much for me lol. I have a system with emulators and I don't even touch it . that's an awesome setup for sure though

Where did u get it from

Nice!
