Fantastic review! I purchased the Killer Instinct arcade cabinet not knowing that it would be my 11-year-old daughter's and my favorite out of the 15 arcade cabinets I own. It is a absolute blast to play 😎🤘
Hi Guys, Thanks for checking out the video! Let me know what you think of the Arcade1Up Killer Instinct. Did you pick up the 3/4 scale or are you waiting for the pro?
Great review sir! Succinct and respectful as always. 🤘Congrats on the trade, I really enjoy this cab in my arcade also. (once the power bugs got worked out of course) I've been inside the control panel to swap in some better parts and the sticks that are in there are different from the usual ones we'd find. They do feel a bit better/tighter. The use of circle gates helps too. I wonder how much variation there is in the marquee wash out? Mine was horrendous. 😆I swapped in an acrylic replacement from Szabo's Arcades and it really pops now! Highly recommended if anyone is looking to upgrade, and reasonably priced to boot.
Awesome! Glad you were able to work out a deal to keep the KI cab. I've got the 3/4 scale cab en route. Had to pounce on it when the 400 dollar off deal rolled through my inbox from A1up. That sword wielding skellybob just looks so sweet on the side panel. :)
Great review - cab looks awesome and the gameplay smooth. Love the soundtrack to these games as well. Lots of great memories playing the fighting game trifecta at my local arcade - Mortal Kombat 3, Street Fighter 2 Turbo, and Killer Instinct.
Awesome review thank you! This will definitely be my next cabinet! I feel as we get closer to the release of the pro a sale on the 3/4 scale is inevitable.
I loved playing this at the arcade in the 90'. Good times. This one is a little small and the spacing for two players is really close. Always hated those.
Without watching it I know you are going to just say it’s amazing and everyone should buy it and talk about how much you love A1U and John D. How close am I?
On this cabinet, I tried KI 2ce for about 10 min, KI2 1ce for 1 min, battle todes arcade 1ce for 1 min and snes battle toads never. I did however spend over 3 hours on battle toads nes. That one brings back memories since I never had the quarters to play the arcade version. I never made it past level 2 that is like earthworm jims snot a problem level. Love that game.
Killer instinct definitely was a buy for me growing up playing it in the arcade I had to have it but I’m Sticking with 3/4 scale version especially with what I’ve been hearing about Golden tee 3-D
Couldn't wait so I went with the vanilla KI at launch. Based on the reviews of the Golden Tee 3D monitor that might have been the best choice. Upgrading controls, easy. Upgrading the monitor, not so much.
The only product that would excite me, is if Arcade1Up makes a pro virtual pinball machine. With larger play field, more solid feeling controls, and better marquee
Lol as someone who played this game silly, it's hilarious to see the moves you use on the joystick. Because I know orchids moves and those do nothing lol. But I definitely want this, as the actual arcade is like 4k.
Michael, is the monitor in the non pro KI BOE 4:3? Because the new wi fi MK coming out has a 5:4 17” monitor like the gen 1’s. They are cheaping out with the monitors on newer cabs this year it seems like. What is so bad about the new Golden Tee monitor?
I was told The Brick would be carrying it, I don't anticipate hearing anything more about a pre order date for direct or at retail here in Canada before June
❤️❤️🔥👍😎 Awesome Review my Buddy! I am patiently waiting For THIS IN “ PRO!”” I wish Arcade1up would stop being so secretive and COME OUT TELLL US WHEN?
I would be fine with including a console game on an arcade cab…if the arcade release was Splatterhouse and they included the Genesis sequels. So I’m fine with this
Great review . Great game . I only started playing it recently Also it seams like everyone is sleeping on Battletoads . For me that’s a top 3 beat em up that could have been it’s own cab And a toad is actually a playable character in k1 2013 . It think it’s Rash
Geeze, if it has a permanent home in The Genie-cade, it's gotta be worth it. Maybe for Christmas. I just bought 4 within the last 6 weeks. Wife thinks I am crazy.
You are lol I owned 3... sold 1 and it's more to "show off" to friends/guests... but if you think about it.... your showing off mini 5' video games ? Lol must have kids as "friends"
How do I properly stack arcade1up cabinets new in box? Is it ok to stack them up on top of each other in storage? If so, HOW should I stack them and how high? Thank you.
I was ready to make this my first Arcade1Up full arcade purchase, but that price point is absolutely ridiculous. $700 USD for this is way too much, especially since all these games are available for Rare Replay for about $10 used. I'm sticking with that and will see how the Pro cab looks but I don't have high hopes. This was a rock solid review though. Really in depth and you answered all my questions. Bravo, Burger Boy!
Cool! But I don’t need something like this that makes me feel like I’m in the arcades, it’s awesome, but I have all of this KI Classic, KI2, OG Battletoads and Battletoads Arcade Got the OG KI Classic and KI2 during the heydays of KI 2013, and OG Battletoads and Battletoads Arcade I got through Rare Replay KI is one of the best fighting games out there and it deserves a whole lot of love, I do hope for the sequel for KI 2013 Battletoads 2020 is a dumpster fire, that puts the entire Battletoads franchise into shame for its shitty graphics, lame jokes, and everything all of the above

Man the quarter circle input when you take your hand off the stick like you just finished signing your name is hilarious
I'm about to get this...thanks for the review!

Great review Mike. If the same 19” Golden Tee monitor is in the Pro, I’ll be picking up the 3/4 for sure. 🦊👍🏼

I just snagged it for $15 (80% off)
Great review! From a form factor and look perspective, this is my favorite A1Up cab that I own!
Great video. Really sweet thumbnail man!
Great review - cab looks awesome and the gameplay smooth. Love the soundtrack to these games as well. Lots of great memories playing the fighting game trifecta at my local arcade - Mortal Kombat 3, Street Fighter 2 Turbo, and Killer Instinct.
just picked it up on their official site for 150 :)
Same lol, Couldn't pass it up for 150 shipped.
@@Ritualz999 might have to sell it. Wife might just kill me. 😅
Nvm. Arcade1up decided to not ship it to me instead. Super lame. Won't be buying another product of theirs anytime soon.
Glad to know about the CRT and scan lines settings. I just built my KI and the graphics suck. Hoping the CRT filter makes it look better tomorrow
Got it for $149 today!
Awesome review thank you! This will definitely be my next cabinet! I feel as we get closer to the release of the pro a sale on the 3/4 scale is inevitable.
Awesome video! I am the one in the video that was playing you online as Jago (BREADCITYSTARZ)
Another great review! I always look forward to your reviews.

I like the look and if it goes down in price I would def buy it . My fingers are crossed for more info on that MVC2 cab if the rumors are true!
Love the review! This cab looks amazing! Nice job! 👍🏻
I may be wrong but it feels like I never hear enough about this cab. I really never played it but looks like a sick game!!
I would wait for the pro. Thanks for the video Michael
Killer instinct definitely was a buy for me growing up playing it in the arcade I had to have it but I’m Sticking with 3/4 scale version especially with what I’ve been hearing about Golden tee 3-D

When are we getting this in Australia. We are always 6 years behind!
The only product that would excite me, is if Arcade1Up makes a pro virtual pinball machine. With larger play field, more solid feeling controls, and better marquee
I switch my blue sticks from my nba jam cab because the OG had all in blue color now I think looks better
Great review 👏
Thanks Steve!
what was the trade!? killer instinct for!?
Lol as someone who played this game silly, it's hilarious to see the moves you use on the joystick. Because I know orchids moves and those do nothing lol.
But I definitely want this, as the actual arcade is like 4k.
You are 100% right, i don't know Killer Instinct all that well. Glad there is an option out there like this
I wasn't interested in this cab but after the review I'm thinking about picking it up. Battletoads looks Sic! 👍
Great review. I wonder if a circular polarizer (anti-glare filter) on your camera would improve game capture.
I paint the screws and screw holes so they don't stand out so much.
Michael, is the monitor in the non pro KI BOE 4:3? Because the new wi fi MK coming out has a 5:4 17” monitor like the gen 1’s. They are cheaping out with the monitors on newer cabs this year it seems like. What is so bad about the new Golden Tee monitor?
Do you know the logistics behind when and where the pro version will be available for purchase in Canada?
I was told The Brick would be carrying it, I don't anticipate hearing anything more about a pre order date for direct or at retail here in Canada before June
Glad the J panel doesn’t light up. I really don’t like the look of any cabs with light up J panels.
Great review buddy!
❤️❤️🔥👍😎 Awesome Review my Buddy! I am patiently waiting For THIS IN “ PRO!”” I wish Arcade1up would stop being so secretive and COME OUT TELLL US WHEN?
I would be fine with including a console game on an arcade cab…if the arcade release was Splatterhouse and they included the Genesis sequels. So I’m fine with this
Let's go!
Hope you enjoy the review!
Great review . Great game .
I only started playing it recently
Also it seams like everyone is sleeping on
Battletoads . For me that’s a top 3 beat em up that could have been it’s own cab
And a toad is actually a playable character in k1 2013 . It think it’s Rash
I'm going to buy thank you
Geeze, if it has a permanent home in The Genie-cade, it's gotta be worth it. Maybe for Christmas. I just bought 4 within the last 6 weeks. Wife thinks I am crazy.
You are lol I owned 3... sold 1 and it's more to "show off" to friends/guests... but if you think about it.... your showing off mini 5' video games ? Lol must have kids as "friends"
Does anyone know if there is cut content from the game? I thought i heard they removed some fatalities, maybe orchids?
How do I properly stack arcade1up cabinets new in box?
Is it ok to stack them up on top of each other in storage?
If so, HOW should I stack them and how high?
Thank you.
Hello I just got the midway Defender arcade 1 up. What kind of controller can I buy to plug in for 2 players ? I cannot find any info
Cool review 👍
Polygon grafix that's what made it different from mk digital grafix or from the cartoon grafix like SF good video

I gotta keep it uniform. So 3/4 it is.
You say good things
Thank you!
NFL Blitz would be nice too!
Just got this on arcade 1up for 255 after promocode.. great video made me feel a lot better about my purchase
Which promo code?
@@nomagichere4398 Scotts1221
They should of added the snes battletoads also.
I want it but not for $700. Must go down a bit.
I agree!
Cool!
But I don’t need something like this that makes me feel like I’m in the arcades, it’s awesome, but I have all of this
KI Classic, KI2, OG Battletoads and Battletoads Arcade
Got the OG KI Classic and KI2 during the heydays of KI 2013, and OG Battletoads and Battletoads Arcade I got through Rare Replay
KI is one of the best fighting games out there and it deserves a whole lot of love, I do hope for the sequel for KI 2013
Battletoads 2020 is a dumpster fire, that puts the entire Battletoads franchise into shame for its shitty graphics, lame jokes, and everything all of the above
🎉🎉🎉great vid
😅
I do want this, but I have decided to wait for the pro on this one. WHEN ARE PRE-ORDERS OPENING FOR THE PRO?
Feels more original with the Nintendo logo on it.
Pro line is out soon youshould have waited.
What’s the actual height on this beauty
$325 delivered 😎
got eeeem
Save yourself a ton of money and get the snes version, the graphics are not as good as the arcade but all the gameplay and characters are there.
You’re a dummy if you didn’t pick it up. That’s the best one there.
Looks like snes version
Looks like your running out of room!
So arcade1up is legit or not? Lol
super nes versions better
Lol you can't do combos
255 shipped right now :)
Hi, I ordered at the $299...is there a code to bump it down further? Tx
@@nomagichere4398 yes there is
What code or how?
@@nismoj2037 there was a code, but it no longer works. $299 still a great deal.
@@nismoj2037 it's over with now
I paint the screws and screw holes so they don't stand out so much.
