Arcade1up has done it again Is with this amazing 3/4 scale cabinet. this particular one has the light up marquee and custom Is riser included in the package. The games included are fun and one of the lesser known games actually turned out to be my favorite. Construction is simple but time consuming it takes about 2 hours to assemble the main cabinet and about a 1/2 hour to assemble the riser. the only negative I can think of is the price point but nowadays for arcade1up this is one of the more affordable ones. If you end up purchasing this and any other ones you will have an arcade in no time.

2 Hours to Assemble, 2 MINUTES to FUN!

Unboxing takes about 20 minutes, but if you place everything on the floor in the packaging the parts are grouped in, it will be easy to assemble. Total time to plug & play = ~2 hours (not including unboxing. BUT IT IS WORTH IT! Use a standard screwdriver, not an electric one. (You won't want to over-tighten the screws or accidentally scratch up the game console if you choose to use a powered screwdriver/drill.)
The toughest parts to assemble were the 4 screws that connect the base (riser) to the actual game. As the instructions mention, there are no starter holes. That said, you might need to lightly tap on the screw or use a pointed tool to get a decent starter hole. (Not a big deal though.) The other tough part was assembling the base - specifically, depending on how you position the individual parts, you could pinch your finger while placing the bottom panel on (as in, if you flip the base upside down, gravity will take over so watch your fingers.)
Lastly, it might be a good idea to attach the power cord AND plug in the game BEFORE attaching the 3 screws that secure the back panel. If the game's ON/OFF (located within the inside/middle where the light & speaker connections are) happens to be in the OFF position, you will have to detach these 3 screws, check that the screen powers up (not just the "PAC-MAN" logo lights, then re-attach the screws on the back panel. In other words, run a quick test to make sure both the logo lights AND the actual GAME power on before you secure the back panel.
Now to the fun part!
My Wife told me to buy this as a stress reliever. I originally wanted a pinball machine, but did not feel an expenditure of $6500 was in any way reasonable. The Arcade1UP Pac-Man 12-in-1 Arcade is a cool little arcade game!

You get 12 games! Back in the day, I only used to play Pac-Man, Galaga, and Galaxian. There are 6 versions of Pac-Man to choose from! Enjoy this game, no matter what games you play!
I may take over 2 hours to assemble, but best bet you'll be smiling and laughing in about 2 minutes of game play! The look and feel of the games are exactly what you remember from days gone by. And, it will take me a while to level-up my skills to challenge that buddy of mine who could play just one quarter for an eternity - all without needing to ask for change now!
And at $500, this is well worth it - and the mental break is priceless!

This arcade1up game is worth it. Very satisfied. Bought it for the Pacman and Galaga games but the Dig Dug game is becoming my favorite. I'm rating it 4 and not the 5 stars because a couple games (rompers and pacman land) are of no interest to me and find myself not playing them at all. Also the joystick ball tends to get loose when playing and i have to frequently keep tighten it up so it won't fly off. Definitely glad it came with the riser otherwise it would be to small (I'm 5'10). The artwork on the cabinet and light up marquee looks awesome. Assembly wasn't too bad. Took me about 2 hours to set it up. Would buy it again knowing what i know about it.

Loving this Cabinet. It’s a great deal for what you are getting. The artwork on both the cab and the riser is beautiful. The light up marquee really completes the great look for it over all. The games all work perfectly fine and are all very fun to play. Also the game selection screen is a step up from the older cabs.
Building it was also fairly easy the only thing that’s a bit different was the inclusion of two new J panels where the control deck sits. Other than that building it took less than an hour.

We love this machine! I bought it for my son’s birthday and we have been using it now for about a week. It works perfectly except the screw on ball on the joystick comes loose often. Set up was easier than expected and I put the whole thing together by myself in around an hour and a half. Since it has 12 games it is easy to play for hours and never get bored. The only real downside is that the cabinet scratches easily.

This was pretty easy to build and once it was together it looked really sharp. The lit marquee really set it off and of course good selection of games. Way better than the first gen Arcade1Up Pacman.

Fantastic machine. Game selection is great. Also nice to see the ability to change in-game options as well as enable or disable the pixel smoothing to suit your preference. Cabinet design is great too and the light up marquee and custom riser are nice touches. Fairly easy to assemble too. Highly recommend.

Pretty easy to assemble and your up and going. The base does not line up exactly so maybe a little design/quality there. For the price, cannot really beat the small version of stand-up arcade game.
Games: Kids enjoy playing and so do ! I wish it had more of the popular atari games on it, but still pretty good selection. Sometimes seems a little slow to react but... Pac-Man and Galaga, what else do you really need?

This is my third 1Up cabinet. I've been wanting to add a Pac-Man for the longest time and glad I held out through all the other versions for this one. Great game selection. Build quality is solid. Looks awesome in the game room. And most importantly... not terribly overpriced like some of the more recent Arcade1Up cabs. Extremely happy with this one.

Assembly takes approximately 2 hours, it’s not complicated, just time consuming. The game is high quality, the joy stick and controls responds like the commercial arcades. Well worth the investment.

The 12-in-1 machines are the best that Arcade1Up makes. The legacy lineup includes the nice new paint, the risers, the lit marquee, and the fake coin door. These look great in the game room with the other Arcade1Up pieces and the games are top-notch. Great selection of games that is great for all ages.

Pacman Home Arcade review

My wife and the kids love this. Even the younger ones who never knew Pacman. It plays almost identical to the original pac man arcade game even down to the sounds. Very happy with this purchase. Be ready for some major assembly work as it comes in numerous flat pieces but all of the particle board adds to the weight and feel so it does not feel too cheap.

Nicely engineered, all the holes lined up flawlessly and went together with ease. Zero problems with the screen, controls, or sound. The lit up marquee is a nice touch. The is my first arcade1up cab and definitely not my last. The whole family is loving it!
