Welcome to my channel. I have been playing and collecting games since 1987 and I use this channel to share my passion and memories of gaming. I review games that I believe are under appreciated or wrongfully dismissed on Game Genie Reviews. Video Game Nostalgia is a fun series where I take a look at a topic from my gaming past and share games that come to mind from it. I also do Top 10 lists, of course I do...what else is on youtube right? Well I like to think I put my own spin on them because they are based on my life in gaming. Hope you enjoy the channel and always looking forward to hearing from you.

Hi Everyone, I hope you enjoy the review and let me know what you think of the Golden Axe Arcade1Up
I'd love to have it, but $500 is too steep a price. By like at least $50. But as gamestop can't keep 'em in stock because they're flying off of the shelves, I don't guess that price will drop anytime soon. Great review Michael...
Thanks for the review Mr Genie. I'm disappointed I didn't get one
Really tempted to get this one if I can find space for it. I love the Golden Axe series and always hated that Revenge of Death Adder never got a proper home release.
I think it's bad a$$
And very dope versus the arcade 1 up first generation
How this game didn’t initially get a Sega Saturn release is baffling!
I know, really! A 32X, or even a Sega CD (albeit to a much lesser extent) could have maybe done the game properly for that matter too. Why Sega never gave us a home port of Revenge Of Death Adder, but instead ported the mediocre fighting game in Golden Axe: The Duel, I'll never know either! That and Golden Axe III, which while I thought was okay, didn't even get an official stateside release for that matter also!
My only wish for this cab is that it had WiFi so we could play together. Cheers 🍻 to X-Men.
SUCH. a good golden axe game. Also never was on a console!!!!
Got mine sitting in the box waiting to be set up. Great review! This cabinet looks terrific.
Hey Michael... Those Cabinets in all different shapes really look good together. I have been wanting this more and more as time goes on in my game room. Also I am glad to see that you Canadians are getting more cabs. Keep up the good work!
Michael be the game genie! My wife would love this cabinet. But she don't want me to spend any more money so I can't do it sorry wife, LOL
Big fan of the Super Game Room Dude’s! You should of just bought it and then hidden it, then when the time was right assemble it.
Awesome review brother! I’m glad you have that cab on the end of the row showing off that amazing artwork! Def one of the nicest looking A1UP cabs👍
I completely agree Jason. It's really a piece to take in plus i have this column sticking out that the 4 player control panel kind of wraps around so this works ; ). Big fan of this cab and thanks for checking out the video
Great review. Bought this cabinet. Mostly for Shinobi. Love it!!
Great review as always Michael. Can't wait to get my hands on this cab. Currently on order through the Brick with a tentative delivery of end of January (fingers crossed). I agree that Wrestle War might be a sleeper hit. I have always been more of a fan of Exciting Hour/Mat Mania, but my local Malibu Grand Prix had Wrestle War back in the day and I did play it from time to time.
Another quality review. It looks great, top of my wishlist
Woah! I wasn't even aware of a Golden Axe Arcade1Up Machine! Thanks for this review!
Hi Micheal B love the intro and great review, thank you!!
Michael we need to find you more room because I absolutely depend on all your reviews!
You get it! Awesome cab dude and great review.
Great review as usual. This cab is awesome . Looks great and the 4 player makes it pop. I love the games and Shinobi is what sold it for me because I loved playing that game at my local convenient store. I now have three 4 player cabs and only have room for Simpson’s if it gets released soon.
If you're going to drag Revenge of Death Adder out of retirement of course you need to make it 4P. Adding the other classics is just icing on the cake.
I will definitely getting this..i also played golden axe and Shinobi when i was kid so this brings back sooo many memories
Was hoping they would add Golden Axe The Duel to the cabinet, still excited to get mine
Pretty cool cabinet man. And thanks for the major detail and showing the games on it, as well as explaining them in much detail. I have a custom 4 player Space Invaders Arcade1up I modded running a Dell PC with Launchbox and Big Box. And all these games will be running on it and 1000s more. lol But of course I need to finish my wife's modded 2 player Frogger cabinet first.
Michael B, your reviews got me to currently have 8 cabinets in my cart... Just need to push the button....
Bought this last night, had to have it, loved it as a kid
Good review as always Big Guy!
That's awesome! Didn't know arcade1up made this!
Golden Axe: The Revenge of Death Adder in arcades (4 players). I played with friends many times. Great memories!!!
Was finally able to pick this one up at Best Buy, on sale. Will have to move a couple of cabs to another room that has no cabs in it, yet to make space for this one. LOL Enjoyed the review. Thanks for sharing this. :)
If I want one I'm gonna have to order it from the brick. We are sold out here in the U.S.
Nice cabanet Mike love some Sega, would have been good to have seen After Burner on this.
Great review the cabinet is awesome but I love the Bubba hotep and army of darkness posters on your wall im a huge fan of Bruce Campbell and the evil dead movies 👍
What an amazing cab. This was the one that I really wanted as my first A1Up cab but just couldn’t justify the $650cad price tag. I ended up getting a SF cab for $370 and modding it. Wish A1Up would treat their Canadian customers fairly.
Wow that's a fun game to explore great collection of arcade machines
I grew up with three of these games on console so really have no nostalgic pull to play them a different way. It’s a nice looking cab however TMNT is the four player I have, and is super popular in our house. I’m liking the xmen cab but I think we’re only gonna do 1 four player cab. Great review as always!
Nice review 👍 I think it’s one of the Best Cabinets of 2020! It’s just about flawless. Nice job Arcade1Up!
Great review!
Now if only this was available! Arcade1up ended up treating this as even more rare than their official “limited edition” cabinets by ending production to the US. Really bummed they chose to do this to those wanting and waiting to buy it.
A lot of Arcade1up products have become scarce or impossible to get
I just ordered one of these for my pizza shop and am sooooo stoked! Anyhow, 2 years later, do you still love it?! I'm guessing yes
Shinobi would be the reason I would buy this cabinet 👍🏼👍🏼
Thanks for the video. Glad you got the arcade. This is part of Arcade 1ups new trend of artificial scarcity. Expect every release from here out to be perpetually sold out.
Your arcade’s sick dude. 👍 btw did you see BSS has the Legends Pinball, just not for sale yet! #excited
Thank you so much! I did not see that. I think it's going to be closer to April before I will be able to buy it sadly
Great video!
I'm all "four" 4 player cabs. I have NBA JAM
I have all the 4 player cabs too now that you mention it
Get ready to add X-Men 4player cab soon to the collection
I wasn't that excited to get this one...but now...dang it!
This one looks fantastic and has some classics on it!!!
I cancelled my brick pre order after you gave me the heads up about London drugs and tmnt...after your review I was thinking about ordering again...then the street fighter legacy cabinet showed up for pre order! I think I’m going to have to get the street fighter legacy cabinet
Truly the nostalgic keystone in my home arcade. Well worth the purchase during its limited run.
I’m very upset that this cabinet was so limited.
Nice review!
Nice review sir! 😎👍
Thank you Deputy
Altered Beast gets too much hate, I really like that game as well. Great video!
We go way back with Altered Beast buddy haha. Thanks man!
Altered beast and golden axe share a common enemy...the pink bird thing
Altered Beast was a pretty okay game for it's time. That along with it being the very first console game where you truly felt like you were playing an actual arcade machine in the comfort of your own home, even if it still wasn't quite a perfect port though. Problem was that it was a short game, with little depth to it, and didn't age too well as a result either.
How did Sega ever agree to the license when their logo isn't even on it? There's a small bootleg Sega on the bottom right hand corner of the marquee which makes me puzzled. Great video!
Sadly this has been sold out in the states. I’d love to get my hands on this. It’s a great cabinet.
it's not i just ordered one happy hunting. Google is great
@@trappedintimesurroundedbye5477 where did you order it? GameStop was the only US retailer that carried this and it has been unavailable on their site.
Wonder boy in Monsterland would’ve been a perfect addition
I wanted this cabinet more than anything, then they released it mid Covid outbreak after I was laid off and jacked the price up to $500. I own five other cabinets and this one would complete my collection. I’m very upset that this was such a short run that it’s not even obtainable anymore now that I have the money to do so after getting a new higher paying job. Will this cabinet get a re-release?
it's obtainable just use Google you'll find one asshole on ebay and one company happy hunting
This 1 looks great...!!! bought Just NBA Jam PCB and built my own cab, The 4 players are fun..!!!
I would love to be able to play Burgertime with the second controller instead of the corner controller.
I really hope they do a wi-fi enabled Golden Axe.
i bought this and love it
You should turn off the some lights in your room to prevent glare during gameplay. You can turn on everything for the review shots.
Can you swap the contole deck? Mount a longer one on the cabinet?
And can we add games?
I love everyone of these games that are on it especially altered beast. I am generation X I’ve had to be drug out of the arcade room in our little hicktown bowling alley I don’t know how many time as a kid.
cant find this one in walmart bought the nba jam machine last sunday before football game
So cool
Wrestle War's inclusion over other titles that would better fit the overall side scrolling theme of the cab (and its visual aspect ratio) still baffles me, but it's an otherwise stellar collection of Sega fighting titles. I'd have gone with Alien Storm or Shadow Dancer over the wrestling title
I want this cab so bad. Unfortunately I slept on it for about three days, by the time I made it back to buy it it was sold out
So when your arcade room fills up, how do you decide which machine to remove? and how do you store it?
Well I'm constantly trying to figure out how to make more room tbh. They have new legacy cabs coming out now that have all the games of the and sell the other 2 to make room SF and Final Fight cabs so I could buy that one....crazy I know. I have also thought about just keeping some in storage and changing them out from time to time
That's kind of the main problem with these cabinets, along with the cost adding up, as you get more. It's only a matter of time until you have no more space, and have to be very creative in order to fit more, if any others come along which you feel must absolutely have for that matter too.
QUESTION! I also played the original golden axe at home when i was younger SO the problem im having is the game ends when i save the prince & princess. Is that normal? Im very let down that it's not the full game 😥
What i think? Nice Cab! But since Golden Axe 1, Shinobi, Altered Beast are included...there will be no separate Cabinet for them! Which is a shame. My first Cabinets i have seen are Shinobi, Altered Beast and Golden Axe (also Wonderboy). Thats a shame!
do you still have this cab?
Its the only 4 player I will get,, but bought mine when sale was on for this and Burger Time was 400 each and free shipping,:)
Hey, you still looking to sell marvel vs capcom cab? I'm in texas though
Hiding damage with marker? Typical 1up QA
I'm less irritated with that than I am with the corner of the control panel being damaged
where is everyone getting there arcades from I cant find golden axe unless its pre order from gamestop and that takes 3 plus months.
I’m in! This was the 1 I’ve been waiting for. I forgot to order it so I hope I can still get one. Then I suppose I’ll need TMNT. Then I should prob get Star Wars. Then maybe... lol
That's how it starts! I bought tmnt first thinking it would be a one time thing... Then I saw how awesome these things are then came star wars, then mortal kombat, then outrun now x-men and hopefully eventually simpsons haha. I just don't know where I'm going to put all these damn things.
@@The_Bad_Guy. Oh we cant only hope eventually Simpsons
@@backinthedaygamer it has to happen right??? I mean from everything I've seen it's the most requested game there is. It could be a gold mine for arcade1up. Hopefully they come up with something special for it.
I think they could have sold more of these cabinets. Don’t understand the severe lack of availability
Lol then ur too big a fan of that game
Been on the fence for Golden Axe cab, I hardly ever play my TMNT cab and I just don't want the same situation happening.
Can you do Tekken arcade machine's?
I'm so bummed. My Golden Axe 2 game freezes at random intervals. Working with Arcade 1up customer service to see what can be done. Too bad, because this cabinet is just gorgeous.
Any update for the issue you faced ?
@@realash they were awesome. No questions asked, they immediately sent me a replacement board. Easy to install, and it’s worked perfectly ever since. My favorite cabinet !
Seriously, You gonna open up shop in sobey's square soon? Think of all the traffic from frosty's you'll have!
I really wanted to buy this game being a big fan of golden axe. But like most people who buys these things hard decisions have to be made due to space. And unfortunately I don't think I'll have room for it. Especially since I'm pre ordering x-men the second it comes out. And same with Simpsons when it finally gets made. And unfortunately I won't be buying Killer instinct for the same reason even though that game looks bad ass. Unless of course I can convince the wife to buy a new house with a bigger game room so I can buy more arcade games. But I probably have a better chance at hitting the lottery haha.
If that wasn't the generic Arcade1Up cabinet it would look awsome. I am not a fan of the way their standard cabinets look.
Hey, you agree. Well, at least you agree with the part about wishing it copied the shape of the original.
I'd like to see the art from the front of the riser copied to the sides.
I don't think I have ever played Wrestle War. I'll have to pull it up on the MAME cabinet.
This one would be tempting if it used the original cabinet design, or if they would change their awful standard cabinet design to something more akin to a cabinet you would likely have seen in the 80's or 90's.
Nice review. Great collection 👍
Shinobi is a better game than Golden Axe imo
Your home arcade is very impressive Michael! One that makes me wish I could afford these things someday! lol. Great review and to be honest, I think Wrestle War is probably the weakest entry to this cab. Wasn't really a fan of it on the Genesis either but I'm glad you enjoy it!
Where out east are you? What province are you living in bro? 🕹️
No Marilyn's in Shinobi :-(
Why is Sega leaving money on the table? Port Death Adder to the PS4/5 already.
Power Up!
Altered Best is great!
Nice review. However, for the price of this, it should not suffer from the I want to look just like the other syndrome. They really should have given this a more unique cabinet shape like Star Wars or BurgerTime. Games are great, colors are nice but originality is just not there.
Commas in the sentence, (struggling to breath), period at end of the sentence (just fine).
Shinobi is Not 1:1 Arcaden ☹️
The Spiderman Level 2 is Green and i Hope the Monroe Pictures is in Level 2.
no 1up is worth the amount it charges with 4 or 5 games. now the mvs x is cuz it has 50 games
sell me pcb please ?
You still don't have a real golden axe arcade game in your house.
You say "arcade" weird.
For the sake of the planet, please stop being so American and only turn on the machine you're playing 👍
