Great mix of games!
You have to put it together but it is so worth it! Shipping was great, packaged arrived quickly considering the supply chain and not damaged. Only hiccup was there was a piece where the holes were off and I triple checked and as was the case I was able to remedy easily with a screw and drill. If you do use a drill don't use it for initial thread or final tightening. I used a rachet phillips and that did the trick. it's quality and sturdy. Games are just how I remembered!

Glad I bought it, but it could have been better.
Pros: - Authentically shaped cabinet - Easy to put together - Comes with Riser Cons: - Button layout for the main game (Defender) doesn't match original game (maybe remove the 'MK'

    I FINALLY OWN MY OWN DEFENDER
    I love it! It doesn't have the red piping on the ad or the box. It's still fun to play. It takes a while to get used to the buttons and thrusting. It still reminds me of the original arcade game. The only way for Arcade 1UP to make this better is to stop playing and bring out the Stargate Defender Cabinet. Also, you can watch the Arcade 1Up assembly video on Youtube. Just leave the screws loose to adjust the parts not explained because you have a legacy cabinet.

    Great time capsule
    i have been looking at the mortal combat legacy cabinet for some time. saw this was the same thing with a different skin and had to have this one as i prefer the early 80's theme and artwork. great collection of games. Surprise fun is Wizard of Wor's 1980's robot voice taunting.. lol Great addition to the hike arcade. Ignore the dumb review complaining about games they wished it contained. It is very clear what games come with this cab. love it!

    If you only buy one Arcade1up consider this one!
    I own many 1ups and this is one of my favorites. The look and style of this cabinet are unique versus the others and the list of games is classic. I had a few of the games from this machine on an earlier rampage cabinet and on this Defender they are much improved with the quality of buttons and joysticks, and the screen is also more vibrant.

    Excellent Arcade Cabinet
    This is a great collection of Midway games in a Defender cabinet. I'm not a huge Mortal Kombat fan so I was really excited to see this alternate cabinet offering with the same 12 great games with the Defender cabinet art. Screen looks great and the sound is adjustable to be nice and loud if you like it. Arcade controls work perfectly! You can play Defender with arcade controls or simplified controls for easier play (thank goodness for a Defender novice like me). Tapper utilizes both sticks for moving/serving - so a nice touch that makes the controls more arcade accurate. 2 player Joust is my favorite- one of the best Williams games ever made. All games can be set with easy to hard play, and high scores are saved. The assembly was relatively easy and the instructions are very clear. Materials feel strong and durable. Cabinet graphics are bright and wonderfully nostalgic. I'm super happy with this arcade multigame. My only wish for this collection would have been if it included Robotron since the cabinet already has 2 sticks. Seems like a missed opportunity - but I suspect Robotron will be coming in another collection. Thanks for this Arcade 1Up!

    Excellent
    Cabinet was excellent. The only reason it doesnt have 4 stars is because it is a little small even with the riser and it was hard to put together because the instruction booklet was out of order. Otherwise, everything was well made with 0 fitment issues.

    Awesome Game !
    If you loved the arcades of the 80's then this game is for you. Identical game platforms and solid built cabinets.

    Good Old School throwback
    works good, controls are not set up like original Defender arcade game from the 80's, buy overall looks and sounds good, like a mini version of old school arcade cabinets, easy assemble, about a hour to put together with just a phillips head screwdriver
