ep 194 - A1up, where are the new games?
Drop JDV a line: evilgeniusemail@gmail.com
AtGames sent me the ADDAMS FAMILY pinball plus 3 game packs to review, but no money changed hands, I do not (and have not) work for AtGames, and no promises were made as the what I would say. They don't get a preview copy of the video; you guys get to see it first. My opinions are my own, and are unbiased as I can make them, but as always do your research and don't just take my word for it.

Will A1up announce a new title this year?
if they announce anything it would have to be a hit. Hard to see smash TV or qbert being mega hits as fun as they are. They could likely pull numbers with a street fighter alpha or a big Capcom beat em up cabinet.
They're between a rock and a hard place if they stick with the big box store model as they can only re-package Pac_man so many times, yet more exciting titles are a big risk.
They released Golden Tee, right?
I think this video is spot on. I would not be the least bit surprised to see Arcade1UP go out of business this year. Re-releasing the same cabs over and over isn’t going to keep them afloat.
Thanks for watching Charlie! I think they'll be a different company moving forward regardless. The Infinity Table's been a success for them, so I bet they'll double down on that, and similar, products down the line....
Hey Evil genius. Well with everything expensive food, gas, mortgage, property taxes there really doesn't leave any money for entertainment. I know I cut back. Maybe at the end of the year will get new cabs and hopefully XL cabs. Thanks for the video
Well, that's right Wayne - times are much tougher right now. I think A1up needs to take a look at either putting more games on their cabs and/or lower their pricing....
They'd pull me back in with a Mortal Kombat XL, I wouldn't be able to stop myself since it's my favorite arcade game.
It wouldn't be shocking if they did. I think we will see one or two new XL versions of the Deluxe design.
If A1Up put MK, TMNT, & Starwars XL's all at once it would make everyone crazy and probably save the company.
A1up leaning into Deluxes last year (vs XL's) may end up putting them out of business. Those Deluxe cabs were a day late and a dollar short. Which I'm sure A1up realizes. I think a lot of sins will be forgiven if they roll out 3-4 new Xls for X-mas.
It's been a year, wow!
Let's hope it's not another year before the next one....
In my opinion, I believe they will put out a new title this year as they try and reduce their current inventory of older cabinets that have had one too many birthdays. A1Up may not have the resources to put out a new titled cabinet.
I hope they do - I want to be wrong about this!
Hey JDV, Wish me luck on Golden Tee XL giveaway, would be my first A1up. The Ms Pacman is good news, but why at costco only. Have you played the new star trek tables on the alp 4kp yet, I think they play really well, my perspective is, I have the same table on steam via otg on a decent gaming pc and I am scoring higher on Native on the ALP 4KP...
Good luck brother!
We will see things like Starwars XL and Tron XL when the 3/4 scale versions stop selling. No price drops on these cabs pretty much, as they sell well.
I'm guessing we see CLASS OF '81 before a STAR WARS XL... and stunned if we see a TRON XL
When Arcade 1Up released cabs consistently, perhaps stores complained that their products were sitting [there] too long. As far as firmware if it aint broke dont fix it.
Appreciate the video!
Thank you Jason! And thanks for all the great things you do for the community!
@@evilgeniusentertainment I appreciate you man. Keep up the excellent work!
I'll try!
they need to release a new driving cabinet
Wow really a year!?!?😮
Right? Time flies....
I was really looking forward to House of the Dead someday. Too bad!
Yeah, I was too. Honestly a day 1 buy, even with a 17" screen. But looking like absolutely zero chance of that happening now.
Arcade1up will not bring out new cabinets just upgrade cabinets with same games
It sure looks that way!
Hope for a New Pac-Man in 2025
New cab art?
They do not have any new stuff because they are still trying to get rid of NFL Blitz. 😂🤣
That BLITZ still hasn't sold out is crazy.
@@evilgeniusentertainment My feeling is that the NFL made A1up make so many of them which in the end really hurt A1up.
The twin super-fails of THE SIMPSONS and BLITZ may doom A1up....
@@arcadetalk Nah it was taking away the late hits. That was 50% of the fun. I would've bought it if they kept it untouched.
Maybe consolfanboy scared them off. He was always bashing the co. Speaking of which where's he been?
He is a funny and weird dude!
Funny you mentioned that, as I just looked for a nee video from him the other day. Looks like he pulled his channel though....
What would be holding up Robotron/Smash TV? Is Smash TV too violent? Not more violent than Mortal Kombat. They have the license, they have the relationship with the designer. It's all teed up. It's an absolute must buy for me. It's the title the community is asking for. What's the hold up? Listen, if the business model becomes limited release direct to consumer because they're concerned about demand, that's fine. I think A1UP put themselves in a bad spot without the necessary warehouse space. Now everything must go through retail and retailers have lost money on previous titles. It's been an absolute shit show. If you're catering to arcade enthusiasts you're dropping the ball. Absolutely mismanaged. I have no faith in them, they're absolutely dying right now to in regards to the consumers that really care.
I can't put most of this on current management - they mega fails of SIMPSONS and BLITZ totally cut the legs out from under the company. I just don't know if they can afford to put out any new PCB/title.
Why, why, why....???? 😴😴😴
