What's Happening?
Arcade1Up has introduced its Classic Special Edition series of arcade cabinets, now available on Amazon. Priced at $334, these cabinets feature 13 preloaded games, including popular titles like Pac-Man, Ms. Pac-Man, and Mortal Kombat II. The cabinets are
designed to be more affordable than the Deluxe versions, with a height of just under 4 feet, though a riser can be purchased to increase the height. The Special Editions maintain quality with arcade sticks, buttons, and dual speakers, and offer online leaderboards and multiplayer modes.
Why It's Important?
The introduction of budget-friendly arcade cabinets by Arcade1Up could make home arcade gaming more accessible to a wider audience. By offering these cabinets at a lower price point, Arcade1Up is likely to attract consumers who may have been deterred by the higher costs of Deluxe models. This move could expand the market for home arcade machines, potentially increasing sales and encouraging more innovation in the gaming industry. Additionally, the availability of these cabinets on Amazon enhances their accessibility, allowing consumers to easily purchase and enjoy classic arcade games at home.
