Save $50 on Arcade1Up retro arcade cabinets like Street Fighter II, Centipede, Rampage, and Asteroids at Walmart
Retro gaming is a great way to relive your childhood, but playing old school games on new hardware just doesn’t feel the same. That’s why Arcade1Up is bringing the arcade into your home with a collection of classic games from video games’ golden age. For Black Friday, Walmart has four of the retro gaming company’s arcade cabinets on sale for just $249.00 each, a $50 savings.
Arcade1Up re-created arcade cabinets featuring immersive full-color HD displays and audio with original joystick and control buttons, but in four-foot tall cabinets with original artwork from the era.
These are exactly how you remember playing video games when you were a kid, but shrunk down to a smaller size. The best part about these arcade machines is that they’re completely coinless, so you can spend hours playing classic games without pumping in more quarters for another continue.
Capcom’s Street Fighter II is still considered one of the best fighting games of all-time with the same controls and gameplay as the arcade original from the early ’90s. This version features Street Fighter II: Championship Edition, as well as Street Fighter II: The New Challengers and Street Fighter II: Turbo all in one cabinet.
Asteroids took arcades by storm in 1979 with its thrilling adventure through space in a shooting defense game where you must prevent rogue asteroids from destroying your ship. The more asteroids you break up, the longer you can stay in space. The Asteroids cabinet also features additional video games, including Major Havoc, Lunar Lander, and Tempest for hours of playtime and fun.
Released in 1981, Centipede was one of the most successful video games during the ’80s. The game’s top down strategy shooter gave gamers an instant challenge of hunting down an alien centipede before it made its way to you. Centipede’s bright colors pop on Arcade1Up’s HD 17-inch LCD display, along with Millipede, Missile Command, and Crystal Castles, which also comes with the arcade cabinet.
Fun fact: Centipede’s co-creator Dona Bailey was one of the first women to design and program an arcade cabinet.
Before it was a hit movie starring Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson, Rampage was an arcade smash featuring three giant monsters named George, Lizzy, and Ralph who destroyed buildings to search of food. Rampage also features Gauntlet, Joust, and Defender inside of the arcade cabinet.
