The Arcade 1up hobby might be dying, but not for arcade machines in general. If you want a Q*Bert machine but there isn’t a 1up version, build one from scratch. It’s a fun thing to do and you learn woodworking and electronics along the way. I’ve just finished my Pac-Man cabaret replica build over on my channel. It means so much more to me because I built it myself, rather than a mass produced item.

You’re forgetting the most important part - for $1099 you can play any other machine. Going to pay extra for what ? A different sticker.

I like it as well. Going to order it tomorrow. A quick question for you? Give me your favorite five pinball games to add. (I am going to add Addams Family as I played that a ton back in the early 90s) Thank you for your review.

Barnes Arcade is LEGIT! I did a SSF install video as well. Thanks for you 2 cents. I like the way it looks.

I have big bart and little bart

3:52 Business as usual here. Few things: 1: Will the employees stick around for a store closure sell off? Discounted low demand items basically while higher will be standard price before shipping to another location that will sell for the same amount. 2: If abandon ship routine is likely with the team then you expect a pack it up and go immediately. Distribution going thru the website is more convenient and cheaper than having sales on closing doors. 3: Leasing retail locations are becoming unprofitable in certain locations due to saturation as well as physical copies aren’t the only supply for demand. While I personally prefer to have a physical copy of my product over digital, I have never resold any of my games or consoles. Product availability? Blame Temu type platforms, crooks “backing up their copy” and selling (which can ban legitimate gamers buying used) along with GameStop themselves for accepting the trade in due to a minimum wage job with nonstop Karen style customers who eventually stop caring. I haven’t been to a store without someone trying to hustle the workers as if they are on pawnstars. Not all customers ruined GameStop by nonsense. Not all employees ruined it either by not caring. 🤷‍♂️ I’d hate to see it go but also fully understand the why if it did.

No they don't tell you, but I have had a few people tell me the leases may not be renewed.

I plan on getting it asap!

I feel like the floor of a taxi cab. 👍🙏

When we think retro we think anthing before the 360 but we know some people who think the wii u is retro! Isnt that crazy??

The Wizard isn’t a movie, it’s a full-length advertisement.

I agree - the 360 is too new to be "retro" maybe the OG xbox at a push but no newer than that - Really when i think retro im thinking NES / Sega megadrive etc

Perfect place to put him ‼️💯🔥😂

Cool.

Game stop incompetent No Realy

I saw the news and found your video. I am also disappointed that its not a full retro store but im glad to be able to browse some retro games in person

Even if it is just a section, im still hyped, any amount of retro games is ok with me, definitely gonna check my local GS

2:12 dammit 🏜

good video

Space Invaders was the first video arcade game I ever played in a K Mart as a kid

Good stuff bud, just subbed 😎 While I do think A1U has fizzled out, I don’t think our little home arcades are going anywhere. Buying these things off the shelf may have died down, but the hobby is still here to stay. If one was as talented as Anthony Vitale, you could literally build your own machine! I agree about the $500 price tag being the absolutely most for a machine you want - that’s the price I paid for Dragons Lair when it went on sale at Best Buy… and I was willing to pay that price only because of the steep discounts I got on my other machines!

It’s Better Than Bowlero and Dave and Busters in 2024!!! Thanks for uploading it.

The Arcade1up hobby is dying. The real arcade hobby is not going anywhere.

Whats the toy store name

20 years is crazy

Hehe! Volume up and volume really up.

KONG KONG KONG KONG

I was 11 when Pac Man came out, so I grew up on Pac Man, Galaga and Centepede and the other real early games. You're a bit younger, so naturally you like more modern, advanced games that require more power and cost more money. I thinknits reached it's ceiling in the $500 price point

This is incredibly cool! Cant believe this 😆.

I'm collecting them too, got 12 of the bottles so far.

Not dead at all. Biden economy hurts disposable income. 1-UP machines are a niche market. It is constantly evolving, much like all Retrogaming.

Great stuff man

Great video !

THE PIN IS SIR PENTIOUS AND THE PIG IS FAT NUGGETS DAD

Thanks for watching Arcade Talk. It was great seeing you in our stream. Love classic arcade stuff. Smash that like!

if exterminator is yur wifes favorite movie then what is yours? barbie and ken?

I'm not 100% percent positive since I didn't see him from the front, but I think the guy right in front of the camera with the black t-shirt and brown backpack at 1:00 is me.

Correction: Haunted House is Gottlieb. Sorry

The hobby is alive and well. These companies apparently don't want to make money as they keep rehashing the same titles over and over to get new sales rather than appeal to the existing customer base. Morons.

I refuse to buy anything that is shipped directly from Asia. Especially China. It is always a total rip-off.

home arcades? NOPE. terminator 2 requires a 100inch screen to get the full effect LMFAO. then a VR mode needs to be modded HAHAHA

If you were really paying attention this shit died 2 years ago.

Yeah homie the people of the comments have decided that if you have a kid that's old enough have him show you how to download m a m e you could run it from a cell phone and wirelessly send it to any TV in the house or garage, you can also hook up any type of controller and it will work well for most games like die hard X-Men Ghouls and ghosts✌️😬👍

X-Men

I heard back in the day that an original Ms Pac Man could cost up to 6K due to demand. Some others were perhaps half as much. Yes, it was ONLY MS Pac Man for that price, or whatever price you paid for a machine. Get us some Zaxxon already.

i am not a robot ... hahahahhahahahaha

A Quest headset is way better

I just want a Galaga partycade, picked up the super pac-man partycade for 200 on sale. Love it. I might even buy an Evercade arcade too and buy the carts to run games.
