  1. they won't put that many games on the countercades. get the partycade instead, most have 8 games on them, better larger screen, more room for the controls, and a much better price for value. only problem is that some games have control issues, especially the trackball ones. later -1
  2. Just checking back to see how things are going. Any progress. later -1
  3. the giant atari 2600 is out, but $150 is too much, there's a pac-man one too.. Centipede Millipede Asteroids Asteroids Deluxe Lunar Lander Major Havoc Breakout Missile Command Tempest later -1
  4. capcom has different licensing rights for asia, europe, japan, and north america. happens with all their games. later -1
  5. excellent as always, i don't think i can get the timing right. but its amazing, even getting the fruit on the 2nd rock drop at the end of some of the levels. master playbacks.. later -1
  6. there were several mentions of pre-orders for it quite awhile ago. these are limited runs, so they always go up when ebay prices go around. that said, tempest is still pretty cheap, as its not as popular. later -1
  7. probably due to licensing why wouldn't it be real, arcade 1up had minature mockups of atari, colecovision, and commodore mini units in their 2020 CES, or E3 show. probably finally just getting them approved. they also have several new titles coming out in mini-coleco handheld shells at some point. later -1
  8. Do you mean the screen, or the graphics on the screen. Neither one is right, and neither one looks good, so I'm not sure what you're commenting on. later -1
  9. all arcade1up machines can be modded. that's never been an issue. later -1
  10. I've only seen and played this version, maybe it was an american one only: later -1
  11. Arcade 1up selection can be good, but control mapping is terrible. Fortunately the vast majority of players won't have a clue or care, because its 'paperboy'. Not like 'star wars' or outrun, etc. later -1

  13. They could both re-release everything, and do it right this time. Use the arcade rom, put in a better joystick thats centered, and change the cabinet form to look more like an arcade cabinet, and then I would re-buy everyone of them that I would like. I don't care about the price, so thats not a factor. Since I have the Namco classics compilation, I don't ever need to buy another mini arcade again, unless they put out an arcade game version of a game that is not already on there. later -1
  14. it can't possibly be any worse. the legacy line up is to cover all the old cabinets, and people can get rid of those, and consolidate 3 of them into 1, it also gives new owners much more bang for their buck. and the quality is much better than the earlier cabinets. later -1

  16. Dig Dug is Namco, not Midway. Good luck in getting back into it, and please post a score. later -1
  17. There are about 60 on ebay right now. Half are decently priced starting at $120. I bought a used Centipede one for $100, and it was fine. But there are new, unused ones too. They're not hard to pack right, and have plenty of protection. I've gotten 4 partycades, and 3 countercades in the mail. Haven't had one scratch on them during shipping. I wouldn't go higher than $150 for a brand new one. later -1
  18. I have the 2 game version with super pac-man. I can get 300,000+ on both games, the joystick is terrible, but ok for casual players. Will be replacing with an arcade quality joystick though. later -1
  19. countercade 8 inches are fine, since you're sitting right in front of it. the partycades are 17 inches. YES, i'm crazy, but i've even played the replicade 4/5 inch screens for tempest and centipede. later -1
  20. actually, you don't have to give up any room for it. it's only slightly wider than the countercade. they come with rails, so you can just put it on table, like you do with the countercade, and when you are done you put it in a closet. or you can put it on a door. you do have a door, right. there's always ways to make room for it. the 7 other games are way better than any countercade will have, unless you mod the countercade. you should do that, there are many kits on ebay, which allow you to connect to the video adapter. the newer countercades have a different video adapter compared to the old ones. i will never mount mine on the wall or door though. a table or desk is enough. i even have some on the floor. later -1
  21. i had 3 countercades. down to 1, just dig dug, which being modded. there are tons of countercades on ebay, and they are getting cleared out in stores like walmart for $60 there is a large thread about countercades and partycades here: go to hsn or qvc, if you want to buy the 8-1 ms pac-man, pac-man, centipede or asteroids ones. https://www.qvc.com/Arcade1Up-8-Game-PartyCade-Portable-Home-Arcade-Machine.product.E234105.html https://www.hsn.com/products/arcade1up-8-in-1-centipede-partycade-arcade-with-8-game/9647339?sz=6&sf=EC0313&ac=&utm_source=google&utm_medium=paidsearch-nonbrand&utm_term=%2Barcade %2B1up %2Bpartycade&utm_campaign=Electronics|VideoGamesSystems&utm_content=_pgrid_116031767240_ptaid_kwd-1116166992697_pmt_b_pkw_490422234689&gclid=Cj0KCQiAx9mABhD0ARIsAEfpavQQ2BBydQfqCmS4-l5bP72l-kC5cN4FsD7MVXkpfaHASLGQiqjwbwEaAuHqEALw_wcB best to wait for a sale, as they usually go for $200 whichi is why they cost more, but have more games, bigger screens, and more room for the controls. later -1
  22. its centipede and missile command. I had one, and gave it away after replacing the terrible trackball in it. partycades / wallcades have either 4 (gave that one away also), and 8 games on them. later -1
