Reading this Bill Of Materials, you’re probably experiencing sticker shock right now, believe me, I get it. I haven’t finished the optional purchases, and I am having to assemble this project piecemeal. I priced out a variety of options, such as a MAME Cabinet that a popular fabricator makes here in Austin, and his price for a two-player system with basic controls costs over $2,000. There’s also been several debates on which is cheaper: building from scratch or buying (and optionally, modifying) an Arcade1Up. One comment in particular gave me a chuckle:
Add on to the fact that I live in a small house and can’t devote a large amount of space to a full-sized cabinet, so the 3/4 scale model that Arcade1Up makes suits my needs perfectly — and the fact that I love the old Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle arcade games, and have so many fond memories of playing various iterations. The stock Arcade1Up cabinet without any modifications (which allows you to select between Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles and Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Turtles in Time) is already a blast, and these modifications are to simply extend its capabilities.
