Thanks for watching bud, we had a blast together with these. She seems to really like killing aliens 👽 with me. I’ll take it ✊🏻 although I would like a power up or two every now and then... she’s a power up hog. 🤣
Also... the one I had never had those rear LCD ammo counters working. If you open the guns up and look, they have a printed board they are attached to but no wires going to it
@@RetroRalph but, for what it is, its still a cool game unit. We pulled it a while ago and still have the guns/pcb. If you ever make it up to Oregon, you can just have em. 👍
I opened the gun and looked at the schematics from global VR and the 3 in 1 gun kit schematics. It isn't plug and play. But is is do-able. With a bit of wire hacking.
@@drunkeykong12 please did you get yours to work I am trying to do the same have guns and boards have power to display double 00 showing but can’t figure out how to get the counters working
I built a huge dedicated 55" custom cabinet with this kit. Noticed a couple issues: #1 the plastic used in the guns is not as durable as the "real" counterpart arcade guns. They will crack eventually. Also, we ran into trouble with HOTD 3. Often, it would reboot and glitch out on one of the final bosses. Leaving players stranded and requiring us to reboot. The 24volt failed on one of the guns as well after about 5 months of use. Aliens is badass on it though and plays perfect.
"We've never high fived before" lol that was literally a scene from like every night with my wife playing 2 player games as of late...awkward high fives lol sometimes painful misses lol hysterical but soooo much fun :)
You don't need the full kit, you can get the guns, harness and io board (red) separate which are made by a different vendor. The io board shows up in windows as a usb keyboard (also shows up as the aliens io board in game as well) and just outputs key commands and the guns show up as direct input joysticks so it will work with any emulator and aliens right out of the box, the black guns with the usb connection have the counter and force feedback built into a board inside the gun which the colored ones don't have. You might have to flip the polls of the pots because the directions are inverted for some reason but its not hard to do, just a little soldering or invert in software and your golden. Awesome vid man, if you decide to have a look and get stuck hit me up as I've done it a few times.
Dude, thank you so much for the tip. I’m hooked on these guns now. Any chance you could send me links so I know I’m getting the right stuff? I haven’t seen it parted out that way and that would be super helpful for not only me but anyone else who’s interested. Thanks in advance for the help my friend and I appreciate you watching!
@@pablohoraciocastellanosgar8639 This is a kit meant to be for coin-op so it’s a closed system. You could add other games but you would have to reverse engineer the menu system and I don’t think it would be worth the effort. You would be better off just custom building it with launchbox / big box IMO. Thanks for watching and appreciate the sub as well 🙏🏼
“I need a gun, will you stop stealing all the good stuff?” That’s my girlfriend and myself playing Borderlands 2. We don’t fight in person, but we will passive aggressively mess with each other in a video game.
Wow such a cool setup! I like these guns better than the multi racer you got. You're the Macgyver of Arcades. I love the console you made to show us the light guns.
I would definitely buy. ICE just released a new line of arcade games meant for homes. One of them is the Jurassic Park arcade game with closed booth. I don't think you can add more games to it. If it's running on a pc I might be able to mod it to run more games but I am not spending $7,995.00 to find out. www.homearcadegames.com/category/8/arcade
It can be used for MANY games... HOWEVER... the Recoil only works for the 3 games. Very weird right? I mean, why House of the Dead 3 and not 4? And also Terminator 2?... has anyone even tried using these guns on Transformers? Or Jurassic Park?... urg... it just really Sucks that the recoil only works for those 3 selective games
Gets me really interested, but do they really feel arcade quality? The plastic on the guns doesn't look good. It really gets me interested though. What about adding games?
That is strange, I am sure it was shotguns in House of the Dead 3 and the ammo counter was on the sides of the screen not the bottom. It was a Uzi in House of the dead 4 and still the ammo count is on the side. But in your gameplay the ammo count is on the bottom and you are using automatic weapons in 3 when they were in 4
hey Ralph! Would you still buy a set of these even after using the Sinden and Gun4IR? I know they're a different experience but the new breed of light guns are hard to beat for the price!
These are cool but kinda limiting since they’re so big and heavy. I would say go sinden or Gun4IR. Just know you will be on your own for the setup part.
some non-USB versions don't have working ammo counters :( I got a pair of the USB versions (with nothing else) for about $350-ish. The USB powers the Guns and LED Ammo counters but the button lights need 12v and the recoil needs 24v You don't need the IO board that is often listed with these since that just originally handled coin and volume stuff on the original cab got a 12/24v power supply on Amazon and made my own Gun cart from a generic pedestal arcade cabinet kit. Used a Windows PC with BigBox running Aliens, FarCry and a bunch of TeknoParrot/MAME gun games Windows sees them as analog joysticks so MAME setup is no problem, Teknoparrot and other games can utilize both guns if you use the DemulShooter software (similar to dual Aimtrak setups) th-cam.com/video/C1q7b-kdTcw/w-d-xo.html

Fun setup!! Did I notice at the very beginning that these games are running on a stripped down version of Pandora’s box? Or were you just using a Pandora’s box to capture some of the images?
good morning brother I bought the kit a few months ago and managed to mount it to a pc without having to reverse the soldering as it happened to you. Most likely, the company where you bought it is the one with the problem. Anyway, I have a question. I noticed that you gave the yellow 12 Volt and the red 24 Volt, but could you indicate the amperage for both? I think that for 12 Volt they are 4a due to a scheme of the wiring that I found, could you help me if you know about the amperages, I say goodbye from South America, Chile, and thanks for always giving us great videos.
Help I ordered one of this kit and I'm not getting much help from the company I'm getting no video out from straight VGA or VGA to HDMI adapter I've tried several monitors and still no video I'm also getting no sound same issue as you had with no countdown display
How to play this gun with House of Dead 3. I can play the gun with Aliens with recoil, LED. However, the gun doesn't work om House of Dead 3. Please help.
so gun tracking on this is more of a joystick aim emulation as the gun is on its own yolk /stick.. thats cool but do you lose the real aim feel ? do you prefer hold in your hand light gun games ?
Hey Ralph, I am sure you have heard by now that A1up will be showing their new products on Jan. 11th. Do you think you will be able to stream the event on your channel? Thanks.
Hey bud; I hope all is well. There’s really nothing to stream since there won’t be a live event. However, The plan is to have John D and maybe a few others from 1up on the show around 5pm PST the day of the announcements (Jan 11th).
Does it work with MAME? Are you locked into those three games only? Are there any other buttons on the guns other than the trigger? It doesn't look like their are. For the price if it's a locked down system then it's definitely not worth it.
cool video showcase! but do you still call them light guns if they are mounted and use pots? haha, i thought rail guns were the more appropriate term for these type of arcade guns
You're right man; I just tend to generalize and even call Sinden a lightgun too.... It's not technically correct, but I'm old and light guns just sound cooler than... potentiometer guns... Haha. Hmmm “rail guns” ,.. I could get behind that though. Oh well... thanks for watching man ... I appreciate the support.
Pretty cool looking , but seems like it should include a lot more than three games for the price. Still seems like a pretty sweet basis for a gun cab with true arcade guns.
Sure, there are things like the sinden lightgun or even the ultimarc AimTrak but nothing that’s Arcade(ish) quality and mountable like these, at least not that I know of. If you just want to play light gun games on a big screen TV, Sinden has a great modern solution. 👍🏻 Thanks so much for watching bud!
if you get your own set try to set it up w retropie shooters or try to add more games to that unit . I'm Shure you can figure it out to just add the guns to a retropie arcade1up , but i bet it would look sweet on a 1080p projector screen w surround sound
They come in a black kit as well I believe, they look almost identical to the ones used on the original aliens arcade shooter. I suppose you could take them apart and paint them as well. 👍🏻. Thanks for watching bud!
I just got this product! But what is bothering me there was no schematics/instructions how to put this beast together. Does anyone have a pdf or something? And also I need the power supply.. But hopefully I can get this all figured out in the future. :DD
Kim is a good wife playing shoot em’ ups with you. I wish I could get my wife to just play PAC-Man! You are right these guns are worth it for around $500. I feel most of us would want to mount it to a cabinet but I don’t think they would fit on an Arcade1up and the Arcade1up cabinets now are actually too nice to do that too. Plus that would be another $550-$750. For that price I would rather buy a sturdier cabinet to mount these too maybe from Rec-Room master or some company like that. Or try to get an older Arcade1up for the cabinet and buy a bigger and sturdier front to mount the guns on. I don’t even think anyone makes that to buy. Would probably would have to make one yourself.
This is pretty cool, so could this be configured for coin-op? I noticed it said free play in Alien, but does the kit have coin1 and coin2 as something that can be configured? Great video man!!
Pretty damn awesome. I agree take the price down to $4 -500 would be great ... Be careful dont get too competitive with games you might end up on the couch
Three games only Ralph or is it likely that you could use other light games like T2 etc?? Keen, but in Australia that’s about a million dollars so.....my 6 Dreamcast light gun games will have to suffice but, with a price drop to make under $1k Australian & some more games I am really interested.
No and No ... sorry my dude! I’m going to make a second video with the USB versions of the guns. With those you will be able to add most of , if not all of the positional shooters 👍🏻
@@KING_KONK love those two! I’m going to evolve this so these guns can be used with those games too! I just ordered all the parts before China shuts down for Chinese New Year.
@@RetroRalph that was such a great idea building it in that case so it contains everything and you can also bring it where ever u want and play it on any tv you want. GENIUS
You can bring it to the hotel for CES2022 and you and Justin can play it together after you two get home from the Spearmint Rhino and before you go to bed
Totally, tons of creative ideas you could go with for these. I like your coffee table idea, that would be killer man. Thanks for watching and supporting me my friend. 🙏🏼
I'm going to go with slim to none. It would be way too expensive for them to do something like this. It would take some significant reengineering of their cabinets as well to make it comfortable to play. Never say never, but I wouldn't hold my breath for something like this. Thanks for watching! 👍🏻
Retro Ralph there is a guy on TH-cam called Killer Arcade Games- his channel is mostly about his Killer Instinct Cabinets but he converted a 1up into a pedestal style with a big tv on it- and made it into a Carnevil with light guns arcade. These guns are probably too big for a converted Arcade1up though? Anyways check out his Carnevil conversion- very cool. I myself am just gonna wait for hopefully a House of the Dead Arcade1up- or even better Lethal Enforcers!
Warms my heart to see you and Kim having fun together.

Plus that would be another $550-$750. For that price I would rather buy a sturdier cabinet to mount these too maybe from Rec-Room master or some company like that. Or try to get an older Arcade1up for the cabinet and buy a bigger and sturdier front to mount the guns on. I don’t even think anyone makes that to buy. Would probably would have to make one yourself.
This is pretty cool, so could this be configured for coin-op? I noticed it said free play in Alien, but does the kit have coin1 and coin2 as something that can be configured? Great video man!!
Yes
So why is it that the recoil only works for those 3 games? And not for other shooters? Do you have an insight on that? :)
Love it!! T2 is my favorite shooter!
what are these like compared to the sinden lightguns?
How do you add more games to this?
Pretty damn awesome. I agree take the price down to $4 -500 would be great ... Be careful dont get too competitive with games you might end up on the couch
Three games only Ralph or is it likely that you could use other light games like T2 etc??
Keen, but in Australia that’s about a million dollars so.....my 6 Dreamcast light gun games will have to suffice but, with a price drop to make under $1k Australian & some more games I am really interested.
Do you know if there is a way to add other games ?
AWESOME bro!!!!
Arcade1up seriously needs to hire your ass!! Why they havent is beyond me!! 👊
I’m for hire, will work for Arcades. Ummm and health coverage, and a 401K... 🤣
Is that aliens game available on any console system? Like the ps3, wii ,xbox
I’m going to buy this based on the answers to these Two questions. Can you remove the crosshairs and can you add more games?
No and No ... sorry my dude! I’m going to make a second video with the USB versions of the guns. With those you will be able to add most of , if not all of the positional shooters 👍🏻
@@RetroRalph GUNBLADE NY AND LA MACHINE GUNS 💪 are the two HEAVY Hitters
@@KING_KONK love those two! I’m going to evolve this so these guns can be used with those games too! I just ordered all the parts before China shuts down for Chinese New Year.
@@RetroRalph that was such a great idea building it in that case so it contains everything and you can also bring it where ever u want and play it on any tv you want. GENIUS
You can bring it to the hotel for CES2022 and you and Justin can play it together after you two get home from the Spearmint Rhino and before you go to bed
It would be fun building something custom with the guns
I’m thinking a coffee table to where the top flips over and raises up with the guns mounted.
Totally, tons of creative ideas you could go with for these. I like your coffee table idea, that would be killer man. Thanks for watching and supporting me my friend. 🙏🏼
Can I load terminator salvation on this
Is there a way to add more games to the system. Because it looks like a PC anyway
Damn those light guns are sweet! 👍
Aweeeeeeeeeeesome ! That's super cool.
You think these could be wired to a computer and modded with stronger solenoids? I'd be really interested to use this with silent scope!
What are the odds of Arcade 1up ever coming out with something like this?
I'm going to go with slim to none. It would be way too expensive for them to do something like this. It would take some significant reengineering of their cabinets as well to make it comfortable to play. Never say never, but I wouldn't hold my breath for something like this. Thanks for watching! 👍🏻
So something like this really is the only solution. Thanks!
They are releasing a t2 cabinet
can you add more games to this system?
Nice. Enjoyed that. Cool idea to build it into a case. What kind of cabinet would you build this into?
Thanks bud. A pedestal with a wall mounted TV would Probably be fun. Are you thinking of making a cabinet for these or something similar?
Retro Ralph there is a guy on TH-cam called Killer Arcade Games- his channel is mostly about his Killer Instinct Cabinets but he converted a 1up into a pedestal style with a big tv on it- and made it into a Carnevil with light guns arcade. These guns are probably too big for a converted Arcade1up though? Anyways check out his Carnevil conversion- very cool. I myself am just gonna wait for hopefully a House of the Dead Arcade1up- or even better Lethal Enforcers!
Looks like a ton of fun. My wife would like it... For a bit. Thats a big price tag though.
Amazing setup! Did the player 1, player 2 and test menu buttons come with the kit or did you buy them separately? Thanks!
dumb question, would this work on a projector?
