Actually, they might not even be able to get the original ROM. It's more about not using the HD remaster to show it in 16x9, there are people that want it in the original 640x480 4:3 ratio. They also want to build a cabinet that looks more like the original, but probably without the the LED scoring. later -1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sirlynxalot Posted January 11, 2021 Share Posted January 11, 2021 (edited) Really pumped for the Tempest cab, primarily because I think that particular cab design is a beautiful work of art. I'd love to figure out a mod to get Tempest 2000 on it. Hopefully the control panel won't look too crowded with the trackball and whatever else they might add to make the other games on the machine playable. Wish the coin door was a plastic fascimile with a little depth to it like on the higher end cabs rather than the decal, but that seems easy enough to deal with, I understand they consider a cab like this to be their entry-level $299 model. I'm never that excited about Pong, but I think the 4 player pong table is a fantastic idea and it would be wonderful to play Warlords on it. 4P Xmen is great, imo the other included games on that one aren't exciting me. This cab is great but doesn't give me the same wow factor as some of the others, maybe because a lot of fans have been expecting an xmen cab for a long time now and the other included games don't seem to be classics regarded as well as the marquee title. Killer Instinct is the cab I was least expecting since emulation of it really requires something beefier than an ordinary cheap android board, and all of the licensing involved in terms of getting permissions from Rare, Nintendo and maybe Microsoft. I don't play KI much, but I'm impressed with the job they've done on it and it looks like it would be a hit. The other cabs look great, too. Overall, I'm very happy they are branching out from their typical arcade1up curved sidepanel design and offering some designs that resemble the lines of the original cabs a bit more. It'll make looking at the various home arcade posts I see on social media and other places a lot more interesting when its not someone's collection of 8 arcade1ups that all have the same silhouette.
