Arcade1Up STAR WARS ARCADE MACHINE

Product Information

But the most important thing is it plays very well and will turn you back into that little kid in the arcade again. Bringing the machine’s height to a more arcade-accurate 5-plus feet, the extra inches allow you to save the galaxy without slouching over the controls. The Pac Man cabinet is available now at Smyths Toys and I read in the Metro paper yesterday that the Arcade1Up Star Wars/Empire/Jedi cabinet will be released some time next year in the UK.

It was a pleasure to build, you just need to take your time and have plenty of space, and use supplied wrappings to ensure nothing is scratched when things need laying down during the build. Whilst the graphics are simplistic I think the use of vector graphics has a timeless essence around it and was a great choice back in the day.After Smyths cancelled plans to bring the Star Wars cabinets to the UK last year fans were keen to see these cabinets arrive and while there’s no Star Wars products on the In Demand site yet they have made it clear that Star Wars is a priority.

As a result they have aged better than a lot of retro games on 8/16bit machines that employed sprite based graphics. Original, licenced artwork decorates the whole cabinet, with the illuminated marquee giving that original arcade vibe.

Finally when constructing the riser consider that the graphics should align with the graphics on the main unit. Because the horizontal and vertical controls are on completely separate pivots, be prepared for some inconsistency in control tension; in our cabinet the up-down tilt of the grips felt notably tighter than the left-right rotation of the yoke. Therefore will the added height I only have to bend my neck slightly and therefore it's more ergonomic.

when you consider that it's about a tenth of your total cost for a cabinet (after repairs/maintenance) then it starts to feel pretty good.I thought I might miss the artwork by having a plain black bezel, but something about this actually looks better to me. At the heart of the games however is simple yet addictive game play that will keep you coming back and that's something that is timeless. It's a really nice cabinet, better finished than the gen 1 modded Street Fighter and Pacman cabs I already have. Play Atari games Star Wars (1983) and The Empire Strikes Back (1985), both high-speed, polygon-based 3D shooters where you'll pilot X-Wings, Snowspeeders and even the Millenium Falcon. Pop the level up with the useful volume control and you'll have to pinch yourself that you're not back in the seaside arcade in the 1980s.
