Also some games do exhibit sound issues. The more I play it the more problems I find. Some may not notice the sound isn't perfect or care, but its definitely a issue.

Madlittlepixel how did you hack just simply add games via sd card and put them on folder, that's it!?
@@ChaleX_TiquiciaGamer check properties on micro sd card, ensure FAT32 format. If not use a program to format to FAT32. Then simply on the root of the card put anfolder simply named game. In that folder you can put folders named after the system you want to play. Example NES. Then just put the unzipped roms in those folders. Only supports a handful of consoles, and doesnt play everything. GBA I tested a few and some would crash. Also it will play Genesis, but make sure the file formats are .bin not .md, if .md you can just rename and change the file extension to .bin.
@@Madlittlepixel Thanks for answering! It might wouldn't be that great for $40, and you won't be able to play absolutely everything, but at least can play your own games, maybe at some point will give it a shot!
What in the name of souljha boy are these things????!
I returned mine! this thing makes those atgames blast's look amazing lol jk!
To anyone who does want to play the megaman games, the legacy collection is about $20 for just about any system and probably plays like 10x better.
Even Wily Wars on the Sega Genesis Mini runs better
Too much input lag though- terrible and unplayable on the ps4.
@@razor8717 PC and Switch are the best systems to play on.
@@razor8717 I have no issues with the PS4 version although I do prefer the Switch version because of more content in the museum like box art and cartridge designs.
Not-so-popular opinion, but not only compared to this but in general, the legacy collections (at least the first one because they ruined some stuff in the second one) are pretty fine in their own right.
Oh God Mega Man 2's music sounds so weird when it's the wrong pitch. Are you seriously telling me Arcade1up couldn't get a NES emulator right?
This is like AtGames, except it's Arcade1Up that gets it wrong this time.
Some of the arcade games have sound issues as well it appears. Went back and played a bit of everything on these machines. Finding more and more problems besides just sound. Sometimes no matter the controller a input will ghost and cause other inputs to not function. Happens the longer I play for some odd reason.
I think it is a setting in the emulation. When they swap the duty cycle the sound is like this. The weird thing is some people like the sound this way. Usually people who were introduced to these nes games by emulation back in the 90’s when nesticle first came out.
@@Bo_Knows_Tecmo nesticle? Bow to the fecal-lord!
i noticed that right away. it's like it's playing too slow, or like you said, bad emulation with bad sound reproduction.
Jakks Pacific nailed the Plug 'n Play on their first try. Still love the Ms. Pac-Man model with dynamic steering for Pole Position.
I had that plug and play with the joystick you twist for pole position
Now AtGames had competition in the crappy plug and play market.
Don't forget the "My Arcade" products, which are even crappier than those.
Atleast AtGames had a good mastersystem and game gear portable console (tho sonic drift 2 was incorrectly displayed)
Madlittlepixel: playing the crap consoles so you don’t have to.
Ron is taking a bullet for all of us.
Seeing the Jump and Shoot buttons switched for Mega Man hurts my soul.
Yes sir
Your Pac-Man controlleri is broken. Mine doesn’t do that “click” and works fine.
It could also be a revision as not all products are always made the same.
@@BouncekDeLemos A revision already? didn't this just come out? wtf
@@Justin-do7ll Either that, or it could've been made from a separate facility? I dunno for sure, just speculating, but I've seen two identical products having slight differences before, even if they just came out.
Even worse. Now he was just sold a faulty product.
They fired quality control before they even started.
I'm relieved to hear someone else mention that muddy anti-aliasing effect. I picked up the Pac-Man unit with every intention to review it, but I found it to be unremarkable and just returned it to Target without ever shooting a frame of video! 😛
Lol. Man. You didn't waste any time reviewing this product.
I saw the megaman controller issue as soon as the controller image flashed across the screen. Capcom made the same massive mistake with the game cube version of Megaman collection. There is no excuse for this crap, especially when the programmers decide not to put in alternate controller options.
Please, do you have a link to a good controller?
Great game, but needs a better controller.
Thank you for saving me $90 combined! the Pac Man one looked kind of cool but the controller being garbage kills it. The fact its only sold at Office Depot is a red flag
PCEGirl89 I also saw it at Target, and even that Gameboy looking console that has built in games in it as well. I couldn't stand the Mega Man one, as it's not the way it's supposed to be at all...music and the like.
The mega man one reversing the controls is the ultimate dealbreaker
Older consoles have got replaced with newer versions of similar content, those are still fine for their nostalgic values.
Yeah... on that Mega Man one, it would've at least been nice of them to throw in _Mega Man: The Power Battle_ and _Mega Man 2: The Power Fighters_ from the arcade, as well as just the NES originals. That would have been a nice extra touch, and it would've made sense to include some of those extra buttons with them.
They should have included Mega Man 7 & Mega Man & Bass, Super Famicom Edition, as well and maybe even thrown in Mega Man Soccer for good measure.
It also sounds like the music is in a different pitch than in the originals.
"Straight up garbage" seems like an overly strong descriptor; at least Arcade 1up did a better job than AtGames in that 1up used actual arcade roms it seems. Anyway, if I see it on discount at Bed Bath & Beyond after the holidays, I'd get them.
Can tell Christmas is comming up .... release any old crap
Liam Neeson: "Release the Crappen!"
At least the Super Mario Bros. Game & Watch looks good.
@Randy Wilson is arcade1up bad? Cuz I was planning on saving up to get a MK arcade, because having a mortal kombat machine in my own room would be badass.
What ever his doing he’s just brain washing all of us to believe that is a junk, and don’t believe it😡
Dude sounds like it is "hammer time" and I don't mean the song...
I can see arcade1up going under tbh, they have the vibe of a company that wants to diversify their revenue streams but without understanding what people want...
I’d like to see a new arcade 1up cab that takes big ass carts to change what games are on it because £500 is a lot for Pac-Man or space invaders...
Arcade cab that takes big ass carts to change games...It's was an 80's thing...called Jamma 🤣
Thanks for not shilling like ralph.
If I like something people will know I legit like it. I don't care what company you are, Arcade 1Up, AtGames, Hyperkin, Retro-Bit, Nintendo, Or any other company.... F all their feelings. Cause no actual company gives a shit about you. So be yourself and be honest, what do you have to lose? Oh companies not giving you free stuff anymore? I've pissed off more companies than I have pleased and it doesn't bother me. I haven't gotten where I am by licking anyones taint. Channels who actually shill for companies and are fanboys will get that particular audience. I don't want those people watching my channel.
All these unsubs from Ralph, lol. Join the New Jobber Order over on my channel. Just getting started. Juggling life, kids, work, etc, but I love creating.
Good vid, Pixel.
This clearly shows that if you were considering these (aka torching your money) then you may need to get help avoiding impulsive shopping, haha.
TFW Arcade1up turned into AtGames, and AtGames turned into Arcade 1up
My impulse is not to buy stuff like this.
You know you can add rims to it he didn’t mention that
The fact that they fuggered up the Genesis controls to go against the controller layout while simultaneously ignoring the NES controller layout is frustrating beyond believe. That's like next level stupid... they went out of their way to screw it up
As soon as I saw the dpad sticking up all I could think was “oh no...”
Sign of things to come
I actually like the pacman one. The games they are offering is pretty cool. I also like the menu screen. Arcade1up makes awesome products but i hate that the dpad is not of top quality. I would still buy the pacman one but will use a 8bit do controller for it. I enjoyed the unboxing man and for $40; i guess you get what you pay for lol 😆
Please, do you have a link to a good controller?
Great game, but needs a better controller.
Good to know. I've tried a couple of the handheld systems with 100+ games on it but the A and B buttons were switched. I play games like Mario 3 and Mega Man 2 on pure instinct at this point. I don't want to have to relearn games that are second nature to me.
My GOD they make the jump and shoot button mistake EVERY time they do a Mega Man release like this. I can't relearn playing these games practically from the WOMB! Dang, thought of grabbing this, now I know why people are getting desperate to sell it.
"no sir i dont like it" MLP and the horse from ren and stimpy
That's literally the exact same way I got mine.
I got it at Office Depot.
The music being handled this poorly is criminal.
Great review, honestly looked like it had the polish with the interface but definitely no heart behind it. Possible video on not trash holiday retro gifts?
That disney console seems to be for the giant disney joystick sold on gamestop for $99
Jut looked it up....what the hell are they doing?
That sound on Mario 1 and Sonic sounded almost as bad as the AtGames mini consoles...
Those controllers look like something I would not like. Thanks for trying this for us.
I mean that seems pretty good for HDMI Genesis emulation on a TV....
The shimmering is just because the scaling is not pixel perfect. If it was 8:7 ratio then you would notice the game screen would be thinner and most people would complain. The button mapping makes it a complete no go especially when there are better options out there. I would get the super retrocade instead of this. Thanks for reviewing the megaman version. I am a big megaman fan and was interested in this one. But it ended up being what I anticipated. Will just stick with my tried and true hacked snes classic with 8bitdo wireless controller setup.
Seems like they are just chucking things at the wall to see what sticks.
One (little) Big thing...you can't reverse jump and shoot. Thanks for reviewing this, so we don't have to play it.
Unless you’re on a budget and don’t have consoles or you’re a collector, don’t bother getting this when you can easily download the Namco collection and the Mega Man Legacy collections on switch, PS4, or Xbox one
The buttons being swapped around on the mega man games is a deal breaker for me (not that I was interested in these products, but still). I was so let down when that same issue occurred with the Gamecube version of Mega Man Anniversary. Could have been salvaged if there were options to change the controller setup, but nope.
Oh DUDE, the minute I heard the Wood Man music, I knew something was wrong. That would bug me WAY too damn much to be tolerable.
I don't buy many things so i live vicariously through you bro, although at times even then I feel ripped off like this crap. Thanks for being ripped off instead of me =p
Arcade 1-Up has an update for the Megaman on their site. Installed it this morning. Fixed the button mapping issue. Playable now
That is good to know, glad they fixed it... Still some testing should have occured prior so the damn thing could have shipped properly to begin with.
Shouldn't the Pac-man Collection have more than just 2 pacman games where pac-land
😆
It's so they can release 10 more Pac-Man versions of this.
It's disappointing that it has to be junk. I'd rather pay extra money for something of quality than pay less and get junk.
Thank God for you telling me this. Those are a waste of money.
The cabs are good tho
Damn how'd they mess this up? All it needs is a basic d-pad and 2 solid buttons 🤦♂️
I saw both of these at Walmart in the toy isle. I still have a fondness for the Joystick used Ms. Pacman with bonus games from Jakks Pacific from 2004.
"You just gotta finger it". You sound like every guy I knew in highschool. Lmiao. 💜 🍭💜
I instantly noticed the music in the mega man games are off quite a bit as well.
Like it's slower or something.
Will these work with other controllers? I have the Mega Man console and after a couple of days the left directional button stopped working. It's either get another controller or return it. And I was starting to get into the games.
This is an awesome review this is the sort of review that needs to be said about products that aren’t good
oh yeah, the reason why the audio is lower pitch is because it's emulating in pal mode.
so if you were to run a pal game, the audio would be fine.
Do you know when Arcarde1up is releasing the Disney wireless console? I saw it in the Megaman brochure, but I can't find the Disney one anywhere.
I've not seen any new info
I am shocked. With a company with such a long history of producing top-notch stuff. NOT!. They obviously have an audience with their products, but for me, every single thing they have produced thus far is absolute rubbish. The cabs are rubbish. Keep the vids coming MLP :)
Cant even blame it on China. China produces great stuff when you make sure the manufacturers produce your product with high quality. 1up is stamping their name on garbage and they know it
I think their arcade cabinets are great personally.
Bro I dig the raw honesty in the reviews helping us dodge another sub-par release.
Omg the awful sound of Super Mario Bros and Sonic 2 at the end 😂😂😂
Ironic...I remember talking to CEO Scott B and him flat out saying how playing these plug n play consoles didn’t feel right and didn’t really like them, and now he’s selling them. Go figure.
Surprise Surprise I actually got it on Christmas Day 2020
Welp, so that was arcade 1up's master plan. Make a bunch of crappy arcade machines to fund making a bunch of crappy at games mini plug and plays. It's like at games in reverse
Dumb question - is this compatible with my Legend Ultimate machine? I just got it and am trying to get over the learning curve.
How did they mess up the Mega Man buttons? That's the main thing they should have got right. I appreciate you doing these reviews and being honest.
It’s cool until you realize these compilations were released for ps2 and can be picked up for next to nil along with collections like capcom arcade classics, Taito classics, neo geo, etc. would be good to get more variety and not just rehashes
If there’s any way to hook this up to the cabinets control deck or a custom control deck, then it would be the cheapest way to hack the cabinets.
9:25 lol gamecube megaman anniversary collection was like that. Shoot first then jump, other way around is unplayable
Funny, people complain about swapped controls in Mega Man games, but no attention when Platinum and Bethesda do the same from XBOX to Nintendo versions of Bayonetta (Wii U/Switch) and Skyrim (Switch). No one further memes Kamiya or Howard (especially Howard) in response...
Ironically, I think the Genesis controls of Mega Man: Wily Wars were WAY worse than MMAC on Cube (but maybe it's because I didn't grow up THAT much with the NES games, so controls swap EVERYTIME I play Mega Man on any system). Yeah, you can swap and "fix", but I don't know. C to jump? That freaking far? Not as responsive either. On a Cube controller, I've grown used to B button being jump thanks to another arm canon wielding hero(ine) and at least I can reach it easy with my thumb.
The music being messed up kills it completely fr the music is one of the best parts of megaman
I dont know. A $40 device that you can add games to. Sounds like it could be a nice $24.99 black friday deal.
For clarification only. Some usb controllers (generic Xbox, etc.) Will work with these units. You just have to experiment. Having said that, it sucks to know I can get two better quality controllers from Innext on Amazon for $10 and Arcade1up couldn't be bothered to provide something usable.
Please, do you have a link to a good controller?
Great game, but needs a better controller.
Also, the audio is way way off too it's like an octive off..... deal breaker.
Pretty sure it's a defect with the pac controller. I saw Retro Ralph vid about it and he didn't have that problem. Still didn't like the d pad but he said it was controlling ok.
So you can only play NES, Genesis and GBA ? No SNES ?
Few other systems you can play but not all games will run from my tests. SNES is slow for whatever reason.
@@Madlittlepixel Thanks for your answer, I dont know why but SNES games are also slow on my Rpie 3B, look like they are some emulation issue on thoses low-end chip... Genesis and PS1 run great but not SNES. This is weird.
Thank you soooooo much for this
Them dudes must’ve emulated that *Gamecube* Megaman Anniversary Edition 😂😂
I personally wouldn't buy this but it seems like it has usb plug ins. Did you test alternate controllers?
The sound in the Mega Man unit is completely wrong. Screw that.
One thing I don’t get is when companies make products like this and still get the sound emulation wrong. Like come on, I’ve seen 2004 Nes emulators with better sound than this 2020 product. It can’t be a copyright issue either, since this is an official license, so I see this as pure laziness.
You like an SNL guy. I subscribed immediately!
Was the Pac Man controller different because Pac Man should use a 4 way direction rather than 8 way?
Arcade1Up originally said that Pac-Man Plus, Super Pac-Man, Pac-Land, Pac & Pal and Xevious would be on their so-called Pac-Man Collection plug and play earlier this year, wonder what went wrong there?!
MMLC1: *Laughs in laziness*
That's Digital Eclipse for you.
Man, I'm glad Capcom started making their later Mega Man collections in house now.
@@solarflare9078 It was also done by M2. If you already know them well then congratulations!
Hate how you’re not able to change the remote settings on the Mehaman collection series!
I think they wound up putting a firmware update that fixes this issue, least thats what I had heard anyway.
Can you plug in external joysticks and other controllers?
I forget if this was mentioned, but no other USB controllers or Bluetooth controllers work with these?
far as i remember the controls for mega man was A = Jump holding A makes bigger jump
I feel like the d-pad on the Pac-Man one is meant to mimic how a joystick rolls around
That's a shame they're tarnishing their brand. I really like their Arcade units.
Is it just me, or is the audio distorted in the Mega Man ROMs? The Start/Password screen especially sound pretty awful, but Woodman's theme isn't much better.
Edit: Looking further down in the comments, clearly it is not just me.
That's a pity. I had high expectations from Arcade1Up. (More like Arcade1Oops here.) Thank you for sharing.
Looks like Arcade 1up is trying to "FINGER THE BACKSIDE" of consumers this holiday season!!
Winced when you were drawing the X-Acto razor towards you. I slit my thumb open with one of those once. Be more careful. | ODP retail is not priority, and the customer doesn't matter (ask about the tech support plan!).
It bothers me that the music is off in the Mega Man one
And this is why I'm satisfied with just hacking my NES classic edition.
Thankful for Emulators on my Samsung Galaxy S10E and collection via namco collection and megaman collection ❤️
I hope this isn't another version of atgames aka crapgames
If only this thing had support for save states for the roms loaded from SD. Then, I might actually have some use for it.
they can get mappy, xevious, galaga 88, and new rally x on these, but they can't release a 3/4 machine with these on it, yet we get more pac man variants. They could make a cab with just those 4 games on it!!
I'd love to get a Mappy Arcade cabinet by Arcade 1Up. Mappy is a huge favorite game of mine. Having a Mappy Arcade machine to play Mappy authentically in my room would be really amazing and something I really want. Hopefully Arcade 1Up does this one day.
@@retrofan4963 Well, it will be on the pac man legacy cab, probably the best we're ever going to see.
BUT THIS IS ARCADE1UP
@@magnusdiridian I guess at-least something. But Arcade1Up seriously need to step up. A Mappy Arcade cabinet should've been made since a huge while ago. It would be cool if they made a Mappy Arcade cabinet that includes the original Mappy and its sequels Hopping Mappy and Mappy Arrangement.
Thanks for the heads up . Saw these and thought about picking them up .
god damn, these are so pathetic that they completely erase any faith i would have in arcade1up's other projects as well. no way would i consider buying one of their 3/4 scale arcade cabinets after seeing this is the kind of work they think is okay to sell. thanks arcade1up for all this landfill fodder, great job.
It’s a cool concept but the sound is off and the controller is cheaply made with slow reaction time. I was excited to get it but it’s not worth the cash sadly
Works with a standard USB joystick, just like a Xbox 360 or similar??
Didn't work with a Nintendo Switch controller.
Please, do you have a link to a good controller?
Great game, but needs a better controller.
Thanks for an honest thumbnail. Honest and to the point.
