We offer many different models to suite exactly what you are after. From a 2 player bartop to a massive 4 player supreme cabinet. Simply select what model you would like and then select the build options.

After you pick what cabinet you would like next you will select what color T Molding you would like on the cabinet. The T Molding is the plastic material that goes around the edges of the sides and around the control panel. This protective T Molding makes it so the edges don’t get damaged as well as makes the overall look of the arcade stand out. 

Every standup arcade that we currently offer comes with a abs bezel and a cast acrylic screen protector. On the DIY cabinets we offer this as a option if you would like to have it included.

Standup models the cabinet will have vinyl on the marquee, control panel, sides, and under the control panel facing the player.

Pedestal models will have vinyl on the control panel, sides, and the lower panel facing the player.

We use a high quality textured laminated vinyl that with holds for a exteremly long time compared to lower quality or non laminated vinyl.

On the arcade builder section you get to decide what theme you would like for the vinyl. This part is nearly limitless. Simply type in the style theme you would like. Once the order is placed you can then send any ideas or examples to the order confirmation email that you receive. After that we will come up with a design for the theme based off of what you request. We will send over a sample for appoval and at that point you can request modifications to the theme or approve the design. Once approved we will then proceed with printing. 

The marquee is the section just above the screen on all standup models. This section has a light behind the marquee and then there is a section that gets vinyl. We can do images and text on this section and make it say anything you would like. This will be provided with the vinyl design for approval as well. 

During the arcade building process, you will need to choose between 6 or 4 buttons for a 2-player arcade.

For a 4-player arcade, you will select between the 6/6 layout or the 6/4 layout. We recommend the 6/6 layout for 2-player models and the 6/4 layout for 4-player models.

Each player will have two additional buttons: one for “Start” and one for “Select/Coin.”

Cabinets with the PC option selected will also include 4 admin buttons located at the center top of the control panel.

We currently offer two different acrylic options for the control panels:

Option 1: Plexiglass Control Panel Protector
This option features a standard wood control panel, which is then covered with vinyl. A piece of cast acrylic is placed over the vinyl to provide added protection. The acrylic serves to safeguard the vinyl from wear and rubbing over years of use.

Option 2: Full Acrylic Control Panel
Similar to the Plexiglass protector, this option replaces the wood control panel with a 1/2-inch sheet of cast acrylic. Additionally, LED lights are installed inside the control panel box, creating a subtle glow that illuminates the control panel from underneath.

We also give you the option to install your own system. This will make it so the entire arcade cabinet is complete minus the system you would like to use. Generally all encoders are connected to the system you install using USB cables. And then from there it’s a matter of configuring the controls on the system. 

We offer a few different options for buttons such as LED or Non LED.

Non LED Buttons

•  We use high quality Suzo Happ or Industrias Lorenzo non led buttons with Zippy micro switches.

LED Buttons

• All LED Buttons – These buttons are completely translucent and offer many different colors. If you want the glow effect on the control panel these complete that effect perfectly. Paired with zippy microswitches.
• Eclipse LED Buttons – These LED buttons have a transparent ring and a black plunger and creates the same glow effect like the fully transparent buttons. Paired with zippy microswitches.
• Black Ring LED Buttons – These buttons have a black ring and a transparent plunger. Although they look great these buttons eliminate the glowing effect on the acylic control panel protector. We can also do these same buttons with Gold or Chrom rings. Paired with zippy microswitches. “If you would like the chrome ring or gold ring variation please include a note in the notes section during checkout.”

RGB Addressable LED Buttons

• The RGB addressable LED buttons are really neat! We use a few variations depending on the order. Either Ultimarc Goldleaf RGB Buttons or Industrias Lorenzo RGB Buttons. These buttons actually are lit using a software called LED Blinky this software tells the buttons what color to light or animate. By default these buttons will light random colors with the pre configured built in animations. But it’s also possible to create animations. “Requires customer to purchase the software from LED Blinky which is right around $30.”

This upgrade makes any arcade stand out by making the buttons animate instead of being always on. The way it works is we install LED blinky on the PC. This software tells the buttons when to light up and how to animate. There are tons of options the customer can set to there specific prefrence. Such as animations, when to light the controls, light specific buttons for that game, list controls, as many other options. If you selected the RGB Addressable LED buttons it does the same exact effects as above but the buttons are lit up 1000s of colors instead of the color selected during the purchase.

We setup the software but to get the full version the customer has to purchase the software directly from LEDBlinky.com which is a zip file that will need extracted into the LED Blinky folder installed. 

We offer a few different options for joysticks such as LED or Non LED and Motorized.

Non LED Joysticks

•  Non LED Bat Style Joysticks – Our non led bat style joysticks are 8 way and either Suzo Happ or Industiras Lorenzo paired with zippy microswitches
• Non LED Balltop Joysticks – We use zippy 8 Way joysticks paid with zippy microswitches

LED Joysticks

• LED Balltop Joysticks are a great way to bring some additional lighting to the build. These joysticks can also be controlled with LED Blinky just like the buttons.

Motorized 4 to 8 Way Joysticks

• We use ultimarc ServoStick Joysticks. Why would these be needed? There are many games that only need a 4 way joystick but there are also games that use a 8 way joystick. While its possible to still use a 8 way joystick on games that use 4 way joysticks some customers find it hard to hit those 4 directions while playing games such as pac-man. These joysticks are installed on player one and two and allows the customer to switch from 4 to 8 way with the press of a button. 

All of our stand-up custom series arcades come equipped with an amplifier and two 4″ speakers. The unique hidden amp design ensures that the amplifier is discreetly hidden with only the knobs visible, keeping it out of reach from smaller children when mounted on the speaker panel above the screen.

When you choose to add a trackball to your order, we will include the popular flush mount Ultimarc U-Trak LED Trackball. This option is highly popular for customers who want to play games such as Golden Tee.

This option adds an Ultimarc Spin Trak spinner to the control panel and enables gameplay that requires left and right spinner movement, with Tempest being a popular example.

All of our custom series arcades are able to use light guns. Our systems are pre-configured to use either Ultimarc Aim Trak light guns and Sinden light guns. Currently, we are not offering light guns, but they can be easily purchased from Ultimarc or Sinden. If you do plan on using light guns, be sure to add the external USB port option to easily connect the light guns.

When adding a 4 way joystick you can select what placement you would like. You can do either above player one or player two. This is a good option if you like to play games such as Pac man or other games that originally used 4 way joysticks. 

The stock joysciks installed on the arcade are 8 way unless you select the motorized joysticks. If the motorized joysicks are selected this option isnt needed. 

Many people wonder if a subwoofer is necessary. While it is not essential, adding a subwoofer can greatly enhance the sound system. Our 8″ subwoofer is designed to be easily controlled with the amp mounted on the speaker panel.

We use RGBIC smart LED strips for our LED Cabinet lighting. Installed under the control panel and at the base of the arcade, these strip lights can be controlled by the mounted controller that has built-in colors as well as different sound-activated animations. Or take it further and install the Govee smart app to create different animations, light different segments, or even program these lights to Alexa.

Our LED Marquee changes the normal marquee from a vinyl that is always the same image to a classic LED panel marquee. This marquee changes and displays system logos as well as game logos. Its also possible to create your own art to display. Please visit Pixelcade for additional information.
