@evilgeniusentertainment

Do you guys agree that there'll be no new titles for '24, or will we see something new this fall?

@theoldar

I'll always be grateful to A1Up for trying to serve our market.

@DriverGuy23

A1Up sold junk, plain and simple. The cheapest product, made the cheapest way with the cheapest materials. Every single one of the cabinets I had from that company was trash. The only thing that I will give A1Up credit for is wising me up and sending me in the direction of better quality cabs.

Regardless our community was great. Arcade1up cabinets will always exist until the last Millennial dies.

I used to collect real machines, but after moving Ill never own another real arcade. Permeantly ruined my back in that move . Arcade 1 up i can move myself love that because i move frequently 😢

@lacrossed55

I'll give my obligatory comment here. You cant discount how bad the economy is. Going dormant in 2024 may prove to be very wise. Not sure they've made bad decision after bad decision to bring their demise, I think the economy is the lead factor

@TotallySearch 21 день назад

Ironically a lot of businesses are feeling the effects of inflation and no one having money for entertainment anymore. Especially for 1up for raising it's pricing.

@mkshukeri 21 день назад

1) Lower the price 2) Provide option for basic 3) Provide option for empty game cabinet with either sticks, steering or guns and let player use for their homebrew game 4) Start onboard indie game that are popular or work with indie developers for their own cabinet version with reasonable price 5) Work on providing spare parts

And i'm here saving up for a deluxe galaga cabinet

i'm still proud of my tmnt arcade1up cabinet!

@meierb75

Funny thing is I just sat down to put together my second 1up cab and this came on to the top of my list on RU-vid.

@SoftballCutieUSA

I really liked the Partycades and wish they made more titles in Partycade form.

@tedadamgreen

Nice to hear some solid numbers reported.

@carlo1132

Hi JDV, nice summary of the history of A1up. Covid def made the home arcade space explode. The community asked for XL's for the successful cabinets of the past and they just won't do it. If A1up was a band they would be Dire Straits, looking at who is running the show there I have little hope of a turn around.

@nrnoble 21 день назад

There is only so many classic arcade games, and for the most part they all have been released into some type of mini-cab.I can't see 1up surviving too much longer without re-inventing themselves into some other type of company or finding other untapped markets.

@arcadetalk

Great video!

@shawndickmann8215 14 дней назад

Love my Tempest, great product!!

@potatochipz3097

A1Up did some great things for the retro community. But times have changed & selling cabinet furniture is no longer viable. They need to move into the online software game. Buying a new cabinet every time I want a new game, makes little sense anymore.

@PC_TV_73

It’s a shame I like them for what they were as I myself do not want full-size cabinets. They are too heavy required too much work and knowing me, I won’t even want them in a few years. For me, they were more decor as most of them only got paid when company was around anyway. The last cabinets they were actually not so bad. The only cabinet I find myself playing with my son was star wars.
