Everything sounds pretty awesome so far Glen! I also just realized that the full name of the cabinet sounds like a new type of martial art... "BAC-FU". I say you run with that theme and do a mash-up logo showing some martial arts weapon... like nunchucks, but using joysticks or something along those lines. lol
The benefit of this is literally making it your own. You have an exceptional base model that is functional. Everything else is personal taste aesthetics and add-ons. You can add-on as you have the money and interest.
This looks awesome Glen! I've had a Rec Room Masters Tankstick cabinet for years now but was never entirely happy with it. I might end up replacing it with the FU, especially with the swappable control decks.
I am excited for this, was going to get an ALU now I am going to wait. I have no clue about Viper or Pi. Just curious does the Viper Venom have games on it already or does it just run the games you have to put in it? Yes I am a newbie. Thanks Glenn can't wait! Best Regards, Michael
I suggest considering a rearrangement of the back door and power switch, as this would enhance accessibility and functionality, especially with the arcade cabinet positioned against the wall.
@ Right, that’s what I understood, but they had said that changed on their Friday show. Said you had changed and added automated rotation. At least that’s how I understood it. Thanks. Keep up the great work.
Glen If I dont have room for the Buildcade can I buy the Irrcade Ultimate Control Panel as a Bartop Unit with the RK3588 Viper Installed within it plus the R-Cade OS Software. I want to be part of your online network play communty!
Glen, there is one thing that you should add onto BaC FU, and that is Pinball buttons on sides, to play all pinball games, if you added that, that would bring in even more people who love pinball makes complete sense, to draw them in, as well.
The holes above and below the screen , assume the glass covers the holes if not , shall they be filled with extra wood with like a spring loaded catch when you put your hands in and out ?
Im sold, when this launches i’ll be getting one. First part of last year i was waiting for the ALU 4k but then they still haven’t launched it, i see more value in this then that. Im pretty much done buying any A1ups. I have 6 cabs left and done see me buying any more. Not selling the A1ups i have as buystuff and team encoder has saved me from selling those. They are nice toys to have. Have no interest in Iconic arcades bigger 1ups , unless they make a Hydrothunder or Star Wars Arcade. But with how yours is able to be set up to make the arcade how we want it, perhaps i can make my own Star Wars Arcade? Will that play on your venom? Or will i need my PC to do that?
@@etharp1980 The Viper venom is more than powerful enough to run it? We have to just make sure the emulator is ported but remember you can also connect anything like a full PC in the unit and you definitely would get that working. No issues but of course don't make sure we have the emulator ported. It's definitely I know a game people would want to play
Hey Glen! Greg here. Have another question: I understand the 26 inch will rotate manually. However, was wondering what the limitations are for it to run electronically. Is it the width of cabinet or the mechanism itself? Can you add something to the wood circle mechanism where the screen is out a little so it can electronically rotate freely? Just throwing it out there. Sorry you had to go through that with Arcade1up. It's great you're doing your own machine!
@@gregwalzel7504 the width won't allow for electric 💡⚡ powered rotation . A big part of BAC FU is turning it into a glentendo cabinet. So true scale ⚖️ of the unit would be far off to compensate for 26" electric rotation And thank you .. I really appreciate that :)
@@chucksgrace3225 the Volume again. Something we learned off of the iiRcade KVM Will be volume up and down through volcano buttons on the control panel
@@chucksgrace3225 You can rotate the 26-in Unicode display however you wish. You can put it horizontal and leave it or pull it out and rotate it to vertical and leave it, but you'll be able to move it whenever you like
Hello Mr. Glen! I recently purchased the GRS yoke over the Alan-1. It was best for my cabinet mod and seems most others choose your unit over the Alan-1 as well. Was hoping you could lead me to answers on mapping the controller? I'm using the usb connection with the Android box S905x running Emuelec. I've mapped it but when it comes time to press "coin," I get no farther. I also saw where supposedly controls are more accurate using a Rasberry Pi or a PC. Can this controller be just as accurate using the Android box? (I just subbed so i really hope you'll respond to my inquiry.)
@@tooshort4892 I'm really sorry on this one. I'm not going to be too much help helping you map it inside your Android gaming box. It's probably going to be experimenting with trial and error, but since GRS door was flot yoke is basically seen as a USB analog joystick. As long as the box can handle it, you should be able to map it just fine
@@GlensRetroShow Well thanks for replying. Surprisingly after several days of frustration I figured it out. Although I finally had success, gameplay is not as smooth and responsive as I've seen this unit advertised and perform on other systems. Guess it's not truly "plug and play" depending on system. (I accept your apology but still a nice unit.)👾😉
Is it really a 4:3 ratio 19" monitor. All 19" monitors and LCD panels I have seen are 5:4 ratio, although some sites will say their 19" screens are 4:3, they are actually 5:4. Even Buy Stuff Arcades with their 19" monitor upgrade for A1UP is actually 5:4 and they cover the bottom part so it displays 4:3, which in turn makes it about 18.5". So is this a new LCD 19" Panel from BOE specifically for your build?
You’re tha man, Glen. The cad renders look clean.
Glen, I think a full-sized Cabaret cabinet would be awesome. People love cabarets.

@@michaelmullins4372 yes .. you can add your own games ..many ways including a build.in downloader

Plans on showing off prototypes or the real deal at upcoming gaming cons? Midwest gaming classic per chance?
What a great stream today Glen!
@@tedadamgreen thank you ... For watching
Too funny just got to the part where you can download games, haha! Got it now Rims!

Game Room Dudes said that the 26” would (now) also have motor rotation..?
@@troymcdonald Yes, a 26-in Unico display will rotate but not electronically. It'll be done manually

Interchangeable control panels ;)

Any ideas or thoughts for volume control (ie knobs or volume button)? I feel like im always struggling with that piece when i put cabinets together.

@@cordellbelk360 loo most definitely lol
Will the reapers work on this?
@@user-321pinball I have to confess ignorance here. I'm not quite sure what this is. Can you explain?
So, there will be an option to have the 26" unico screen vertical, for those of us who want a strictly vertical only 4:3 ratio build (no horizontal)?
@@chucksgrace3225 You can rotate the 26-in Unicode display however you wish. You can put it horizontal and leave it or pull it out and rotate it to vertical and leave it, but you'll be able to move it whenever you like
@GlensRetroShow perfect. Will that be an option on the Nintendo style cabs as well, or will those be 19 inch only?
@chucksgrace3225 they're basically the exact same cabinet, just different screens. So the answer is yes. You could put the same Hood on either one
