Pros & Cons
Pros
This game console perfectly reproduces classic atari games in full color and sound! The tilt in the glass/console works for me. Very nice way to remember retro games and enjoy them.
The factory trackball is now flawless for about 30 minutes of work and a medium tipped philips head (+) screwdriver. Arcade1up support is really good exceptional as well. My only gripe is that the trackball that ships with the unit is not great.

Highlights
Quality
I was impressed with the packing job the quality of the items the way it was organized the assembly manual
The only drawback is that it is hard to map the buttons functionality with the game
It is particle board quality hardware so never over tighten the screws or use cordless drills unless you are experienced with them
Price
Starting to run out of room in my home for them but the cost is well worth recreating an 80s video game arcade in my back office
Millepede is the number one game i am playing
Shipping
All units survived the shipping bangs drops and mishandles
With the atari legacy edition cabinet arcade 1up addressed our concerns about questionable packing which damaged pieces during shipping
Packaging/appearance
Be careful not to use wrong screws for some steps … i punched holes in the sides using screws that were too long

Be certain to order the one foot riser if your arcade game doesnt include it
