    Great review! I’ve got a couple classic MyArcade consoles on display in my home arcade (PacMan & Galaga) and this looks like a great addition for consideration.

      This one sets the bar pretty high, really curious what they will put out next. Appreciate the comment 🍻

    I think it's the best looking one out of the bunch I've seen. No HDMI out kinda makes it a shelf piece but it looks cool for the price.

    Did you get any issues with the "home" button on the unit ? Mine do nothing.

    Show-Me Retro,
    Yeah, I bought this for my brother for his Christmas present. It's one of his favorite arcade games. For me, I only by these smaller replicas to display. Since I have an even smaller replica of Pole Position in my Home Arcade, I'm going to pass on the My Arcade version and hold out until a company like New Wave Toys or Numskull brings one out looking like the actual machine. Sure, it might not happen, but I'm willing to chance it.
    I did buy the Buy Stuff Arcades Racing mod for my Arcade1Up Out Run, which added both Pole Position and Pole Position II to the cab. Unfortunately, the Arcade1Up wheels aren't free spinning, so it's difficult to play either. Still doable, but not ideal. I'm glad Buy Stuff Arcades did come out with a free spinning wheel, so I'd keep a look out on those kits if you're interested in games that use them like Pole Position. They even have a configuration that doesn't require buying an Arcade1Up to use it. And definitely much cheaper than a $1,000 racing multicade cab. So many solutions out there, a great time to be in the hobby (unless you're looking for new IP Arcade1Up's, which I know you aren't :) )
    Glad you're liking this new little guy!
