A couple forgotten details! I know, i suck.
1.THE HDMI CONVERTER USES SAME POWER SUPPLY THAT THE CAB COMES WITH.
2.YOU WILL NEED TO BORE OUT THE STOCK POWER AND VOLUME HOLES TO FIT NEW BUTTONS FOR “SELECT”. You can use these extra buttons as select and hotkey inputs

Hey man I made a really cool launch screen will you help me make it work on Nova launcher??? Check it out on my page
Hey I have tried everything and believe it’s all correct but still can’t see anything the screen lights up black but that’s all I can see I can hear other games playing and that’s it. Any shit you can help?
@@FrostyBite hhmmmm, and you checked all the connections to make sure theyre in all the way?
@@dadgamertv84 I can double check is there any way I’m able to contact you if possible or is this the best bet. Haha we can double check we just have some lights atm. On the screen
@@dadgamertv84 the screen is just goo in red. Then blue then green then white then black.
Just wanted to pop in here to say i followed your guide step by step for modding my cabinet and you made things SO easy. I have zero experience with any of this and managed to nail it by rewatching this video about 100 times lol 🙌
Lil tip for anyone doing this mod with a midway legacy - you can order a new control panel with the additional button holes pre drilled for like 65 bucks. Made this project super smooth...thanks a ton DadGamer!
Awesome!! Glad to here it

@@reneescarcega7263 i ordered mine from DIY Retro Arcade
im adding the select buttons as the 25c button on the front of the cabinet
Hey man i know u made this a year ago. but you probably know this video has helped at least 100s so I think it's cool you took time to put this together to help other nerds and geeks like us lol. Seriously this is a real comment from a real person. Thanks for being real etc lol
Thanks man, i appreciate that
Thanks DadGamers TV. I watched a few videos on modding, including ETA Prime's, but your video gave me unique information that suits my needs. I got an old Super Console X several years ago but didn't play much (the ps3 controllers suck), so I wanted to put it in an Arcade1up. Your video fits my situation, as the Arcade Box is similar (both use Emulec). I also didn't understand why we need to splice stock speakers and get an expensive AMP for sound anyways; your suggestion of using old computer speakers is great (I got one for 7 bucks from GoodWill). Finally, your tips on controller/display settings and hot keys for sound control are very helpful. I have a fully functional Street Fighter Arcade1up mod now with Super Console X, very happy. Thanks!
Awesome!!! Glad to hear it
This is exactly what I want to do as well💪🤓
***To remove the wires - use a small flat head screw driver, and gently lift them off the pins - They won't break !!
To get full screen without the bars, use aspect ratio 30/17!
You’ll notice that with Sega NAOMI the mvc2 has all players unlocked to avoid any frustration and having to grind and buy characters.
1:09 nobody could make “black nuts” sound worse 😅
Love this video and now my husband is on a mission!
Walmart usually has good prices!
Thanks for the video. Ive been wanting to make one of these. I told my wife that if I thought about making one that means that someone else thought about it too. Unfortunately the gaming hardware no longer exist in Amazon but I have a small pc that I will install Batocera and add the 5000+ games that I have on a hard drive. Again... Thanks for the video!!
Very entertaining and fun to watch. Thanks for posting this.
It's kinda unfortunate that you're stuck with the button layout of Mortal Kombat/NFL Blitz instead of a more traditional 6-button fighting game layout, but the overall project is still very cool. The Arcade1up machines are so limited and being able to play anything on your expensive cabinet is an upgrade for sure.
I finally modded it and now I can play ps3 on my arcade 1 up thanks man your a life saver
you really got me when you said you were going to give the CPO "the people's elbow" ✌️🤣
The rock really was thee most electrifying man in sports entertainment.
Thank you for great video, it gave me enough info to do this myself. I found out that if you buy the cheap amp seen in other mods, you can use the stock speakers when they are connected from the HDMI board to the amp. Hope this helps someone in the future as well.
AWESOME TUTORIAL! You just gained a new subscriber!
I'd like to ask you something though, do you think I'd be able to keep using the original buttons and joysticks, so that I can save on those? Or are those new buttons and joysticks necessary for the mod to work? Thank you for taking the time
They’re necessary for THIS TYPE of mod. Because they need the usb connections to plug into the controller ports
Now I know what I'm doing this weekend. Thanks for making this vid man!
Thanks for the video I’m definitely going to try this asap
I was gonna give this an attempt, blight the supplies but remembered I don't have common sense. All the parts has been sitting in my cabinet collecting dust for 3 years now 😢 not wanting to drill holes and risk looking ugly, wish they had a paper layout...
Thanks for the awesome, simple to understand video. I do have a quick question though, at the end of your video when you're showing some of the games, i.e. Mortal Kombat, will there always be black side bars for certain games? I saw in a different video where you can go into settings and set the video output to 16:9, is this an option that's available on your system? Can't wait to start playing some old school games!
Yes, switch the ratio to 16:9 and it’ll be full screen
Best opener ever. I don’t care about specs. I don’t care about switches. I don’t give a shiiit!
Fuck all that noise.
Nice job! I love the box arcade is amazing, I recommend u to place a computer fan together to the box👍.
Thanks! I put the box in there upside down so its fan can breathe. Alot of people putting it in regular have had overheating issues and system failures. I keep it on constantly, no issues.
Hey we’re trying to start the machine but just left with a blank screen any shot you can help?
Is it possible to play games like NBA Jam with 4 players, if i install the arcade box in a nfl Blitz arcade 1 up? What do you think?
The arcade box only comes with two usb ports
If they had a face I'd punch them.. lol. Gold! Made my day. Thx
Wreck it Ralph upgrades his 1up
Your video was awesome man.. Keep it up. 💯
That seems like quite a bit of money to spend on an arcade cabinet and screen, since you appear to be bypassing the A1u content entirely.
Clearly, a lot of people like the idea, though, so more power to you all. Enjoy.
Am about to do this in 2024 😅 man shouldn't be bad.
Thanks. This was helpful. What did you end up doing about the original LED marquee connection? Did you replace with other LED light strips?
I didnt have a light up marquee to begin with
Yo dude! I just got done following along with your video on my MK3 cab and it’s looking really great. Thanks you 👍 one question, I went through the process of mapping the controls like you showed but then when I jump into games the system seems to default to different controls for different systems/games and it loses the mapping I just put in? . Any idea how I could make this work consistently in the settings perhaps?
That happened to me too, i just kept annoyingly remapping them and left it on. They ended up sticking after leaving it on
I enjoy your crass-ness more than the content. Beautiful commentary lol
Me at the start of the video:
"Alright, finally an easy mod that doesn't involve taking stuff apart."
0:36
"I'm done."
I hope you see this (since you made this a year ago), but changing buttons is a personal preference, correct? I have NFL Blitz and I'm interested in modding it. Thanks
Gotta change the buttons because the new ones are usb compatible to plug into the arcade box
I bought this arcade box because I watched your video. When I plugged it in the screen is white. I hooked the arcade box to the tv, so I know it works. When I connect it to arcade cabinet. The screen stays white
Make sure the the moniter circuit board that has the power button is attached securely. If its loose, it will mess with the screen
This duuuuuuuude is selling the arcade box lmao. Not complaining just noticed xD I'll give you some money brother
@@oyeah310 not really, i actually just swapped it with the Super Console
I just bought the same cabinet with the intention to modify it the same way as in this video ! Just ordered in fact the hdmi converter from aliexpress ( will take a month it says to be delivered ... ugh.. ). Thank you so much for the instructions !
The only issue that bothered me with this particular cab is that its kinda short for me ( I'm 6.2 ), so I ended up buying four metallic legs 10cm in height to raise it up a bit.
One question - wouldn't it be possible to use the speakers the cabinet comes with ? They seem to have a standard speaker jack, I think so anyway.
Yes, you can use the original speakers.the pcb has a 3.5 mm jack in it as well, it has 2 of them just make sure you plug it in the right one. Theyre just not as loud.
@@dadgamertv84 Thanks again !
Do you have to change your buttons for each gaming system you choose to play ?
Great work, looks great
I Wanna change my buttons for the LED ones so Bad Lol, I don't think i could do this though id be too scared to mess up the button layout or something
Love this video bro As a fellow dad, i have a question? I built a bartop using same joystick kit except I used the super console pro cube instead of the arcade box. Worked pretty good except it took real long for screen to pass the Emulec boot up screen. And it kept switching the joystick from player one to player two after some boot ups. Did the same thing happen to you using the the arcade box? I want to build another bartop using the arcade box if it works better and more consistent. Thanks bro. Salud 🍻
Yup same thing happened to me, then i double checked the wiring. Have to make sure they are wired into the same exact spots as each other. Use the diagram if it came with one. After i double checked the wires, it was fine.
Do you think a steam deck would work with this method? It'd be so cool to play like Dragon Ball FighterZ on a cabinet.
Steam deck i don’t know but since you’re converting it to HDMI, you can probably hook up whatever you want thats controlled by USB. Ps4, old xbox, etc.
@dadgamertv84 Might spend a little to get a cabinet then. Gonna have to save this video for later, haha!
At the end of your video you said you had to add a selector switch (button) where did you add this on the circuit board. which slot?
Great Video i'm about to get the street fighter 35 anniversary. The only videos I have seen done have been on the Mk2 machine...will this work on any machine? Thanks
Thanks. Different machines have different connections so just make sure you have the right HDMI converter. Once you get a converter, you throw anything thats hdmi in there.
Could a intec switch fighting stick would work instead of the light up buttons?
Good video 🫶. I have two questions. The first is that the whole thing works without replacing the original buttons. The second question is does the coin slot still work after the mod? I would like to set up a machine with lots of games, but the coin slot has to work.
My coin slots are non functional, theyre just a flat panel board. And yes you have to replace the buttons for this particular mod
What did u do for speakers and my volume doesn't go up much and sound sucks.when I can max it out and new board can't attach the volume up and power one on my arcade 😢
I plugged regular computer speakers into the audio jack of the hdmi converter
Great video, 🌹
Will this method work with arcade1up mortal kombat 30th anniversary cabinet?
Not sure, probably not. I bought this cabinet before Arcade1up was even popular
Hi there , the HDMI converter on Amazon has 2 resolutions. Should I get the 960 or the 1024? Thanks in advance
Full honestly, i have no clue.
thanks for this beautiful video, i have followed the steps and am all good, but i also have encountered some issues, i have the latest arcade1up the yoga flame one, 2 features stopped working which is the cabinet lighting and the internal speaker that comes in it, i had to buy a new speaker, if you ever going to make a new video to mod ur speakers it would be lovely instead of buying external ones, am in for another challenge as well. as for mine i have added three more button and i used a drill to make the holes more wider a bit to fit "in" the button instead of them popping out just like urs for the additional ones, and you got a subscribe
how is the arcade box doing? I haven't seen many reviews on how well that box handles after a few months
Working fine. Its more if a decoration piece these days, i change the game every couple days. I leave it on. Alot of guys were mounting the box with the fan up against the wall which was making it shit the bed. I have mine with the fan facing out.
@@dadgamertv84 Thanks for the reply...
can i still hook up the arcade box without changing the original button/joystick board? thanks for the vid!
No. You gotta switch them out.
I cant find the VSDISPLAY can someone help ?
Do you have to turn on the Arcade Box from inside the cabinet or how does that work? Simple method though I like this a lot. I was thinking of getting a PC to run Botocera on one of these but may do this instead. I want it to be as seamless as possible, as if it were intended to come that way.
After i made the video i ended up drilling a hole in the back cover of the cabinet , right where the power button is on the Arcade Box. Since i mounted the arcade box on the rear support panel, it made it easier to do so. That way i dont have to keep taking the back panel off.
@@dadgamertv84 That’s a good idea. I’m doing a build with a PC instead of the Arcade Box. I bought a remote power button for it, and I’m going to drill a hole in the back as well. I liked the PC option as it seems more versatile and also it was cheaper lol.
Finally someone that thinks like me this is all i wonted without having to buy a raspberry pie and making an arcade PC build BS
Fuck all that
one issue the arcade boy has a tendency to flip controls on the USB controller for sticks and stuff. Everything works decent just that part is a bit annoying.
Make sure they are wired the same exact way, in the same exact port on both sides
@@dadgamertv84 AHHH okay yeah that makes since I had my son wire up one side while i wired the other.. thanks Ill try that.
@@Visionist3000 thats dope 👍🏽
Well done, thanks for making this tutorial 🙂👍
No problem 👍
Got it all setup only problem is when I load up a game there is no audio. Do you know why ?
Loose connection maybe? Or volume is down. I installed computer speakers for better sound. I just plugged them in and left them on the bottom of the arcade INSIDE the cabinet
@@dadgamertv84 there is audio when you see the game video before selecting a game just not when you launch the game which is strange
@@migattekid yeah that is strange
I have the gen 1 street fighter cabinet so how would I connect the original speaker to the converter?
Do you need the MKII Cabinet to do this, or can you do it with any cabinet? Also, could you make a video going through some of the games? Specifically , the MAME games. Thanks!
Sorry, i just saw this. You can do it with any cabinet as long as you get an HDMI converter that is compatible with its screen. I will make a video of the games when i get a chance to
Forgot to ask can we still use the speaker from the mk2 arcade? I have the same one you modified. Or is it better to use aftermarket sound.
Stock speaker isnt as loud. I like to use aftermarket. Bigger sound. But yeah you can use it if you want
Where can I get the boards to convert the buttons to hdmi? Not in link. Bought everything else

Hello great video I did everything step by step. everything works great I can’t confirm anything in the retro arch menu any suggestions?
You mean like the settings? I think they stay the way you set it just by backing out
I see a few of these done to the Mortal Kombat 2 machine. Can this be done to others ? What does it depend on ? NFL Blitz? Im in the market but I'm a Blitz fan . Any help is appreciated.
It can be done to the others. I did this so that i didnt have to buy blitz but it doesnt have blitz on there
I did all the same stuff in my Simpsons cabinet, but I can't stand how it does not use the full screen properly. These arcade boxes are made to work great on a 16:9 tv. I saw that your basketball had the black bars on the sides. I was able to configure game by game to solve this if you set that basketball game to 16:9 instead of "auto" with bezels removed as you have it, it will fill the screen and look great. However, I can't find a way to do it "across the board" to have video output as a 4:3 display so it fills the screen properly - the same 16:9 setting in game like galaga stretches the screen horribly. Did you ever find a way past this?
Yeah i put it on 4/3 under system settings and it stayed for all games
Hey how does the on and off switch work? Does the cabinet and arcade box come on with a push or flip of a switch?
Yeah the switch thats on the arcade box
How do you lower controller lag on that "arcade box? It seems to be running behind controller inputs
No clue man, sorry.
Looks good brother. I have 2 partycade. I want to do that to one of them.
Could you do this, but keep the stock buttons and joysticks? I'm looking to do this mod, but with a Rampage Arcade Machine
You gotta find an HDMI converter thats compatible with the stock buttons
Lmao. Love your video man. Thanks!

@Zyronox yes
I have a question the light on the motherboard is green and the screen lights up white for about 10 seconds then the light switches to red any reason why?
Might just be loose. Make sure the board is really secure (without cracking it of course) . I had the same issue
Thank you!
Questions so machine is always on? And when changing power and volume button for select are you just changing configuration?
Yes i leave mine on BUT make sure the fan of the arcade box is facing out. Change the button mapping in the arcade box menu
Bro one question can u use the speakers that come with the arcade?
Yeah you can
You couldnt fit the buttons in for start on and off and the volume switch wow how do u go about turning the system on and off
I fixed all that afterwards
Last question I promise....The game unit itself seems to be coming from outer space somewhere....is there another retro box/android game box that you can recomend that will work with this setup? I just don't want to order the wrong one, the right one looks like a Thanksgiving delivery date
I assume anything you can hook up with HDMI would good, like any one of those multi game consoles. Not too sure, i just saw someone do it with this one. No complaints from me at all about it
I see where you said you made a hole for new on off button button when changing old off on button did you just change configuration or was it a port in the back that had to be plugged in to new button motherboard
Yes, the motherboard comes with a diagram. Make sure select is plugged into select. Also, map it in the menu.
Drill holes on the side, so it's like pinball, so you don't have the 2 buttons sitting on top
I already drilled the holes where the original ON/OFF & VOL switches were. I still have 2 extra buttons, i was thinking of doing the pinball buttons

I noticed the kit didnt come with a power supply{ I ordered it separately} Do i need any other cables /hardware other than the 3 items you listed? I'm pretty excited to start this, gonna take a bit to receive the arcade box.
You can use the same power supply the cab comes with. Cancel that order if you can
Sorry, i forgot to say that in the video 😏
@@dadgamertv84 its ok thank you for the reply!
New subscriber! Sick bro
Thanks brother
do you have to add the new buttons or is that optional?
Optional
This particular way of modding, using a super console, you have to change the buttons.
How well does the Emulation work on this? Some of these pandora box things emulate games horribly. So I was curious how well MVC 2 runs and some other arcade games. Do they all run great or do they have issues with this system. Thanks!
Honestly, MvC2 runs the best out of any other game i tried. Some games look great, some games look like shit. The button layout that the MK cabinet came with isnt the best for most games. Im gonna have to upgrade to a better deck in the future but as of right now its perfect as an interactive piece of decor to bring you back memory lane.
Do have to change the buttons?
Would this work on a partycade model
I have the street fight anniversary edition and idk what I did wrong but I get like a blue lit screen..
I would just double check your connections.
Nice vid bro I may try my luck 👍
Would this work with the Killer Instinct cabinet that has 6 buttons for the characters?
The button kits come with 10 buttons for each color. So i dont see why not
Know if all of this is possible with an iiRcade?
I have no clue 🤷🏽♂️, im sure theres videos of someone doing it to one of those though
