Arcade1Up Limited-Edition Pac-Man Cabinet & New Countercade Available At Amazon

Arcade1Up Limited-Edition Pac-Man Cabinet & New Countercade Available At Amazon

Arcade1Up has released plenty of Pac-Man arcade cabinets over the years, but the newest full-size addition to its catalog might be the coolest yet. Launched on October 8, the Arcade1Up Limited-Edition Pac-Man Plus Deluxe Cabinet is now available for purchase at Amazon. Due to Arcade1Up labeling this particular Pac-Man cabinet a “limited edition,” it would appear that once Amazon sells out, Pac-Man Plus will be gone for good.

If you don’t have room for the Pac-Man Plus Deluxe Cabinet or want a more affordable way to play Pac-Man, Arcade1Up just released a new Ms. Pac-Man and Galaga Countercade. Though both of the new machines are listed as available now, Amazon currently estimates orders won’t arrive until November 19.

More Arcade1Up Pac-Man Cabinets

Some Arcade1Up Pac-Man cabinets are no longer manufactured, but a few other standing cabinets are still available, including the full-size version of Class of ’81, a traditional Pac-Man Deluxe Cabinet with a bright yellow color scheme, and a machine themed around Pac-Mania. The Pac-Mania and yellow Pac-Man machines come with the same 14 games you get with with Pac-Man Limited Edition. Meanwhile, Class of ’81 is the cabinet for Ms. Pac-Man fans.

If you like all of the designs, the most affordable option is the Pac-Mania-themed model. Amazon is selling Arcade1Up’s Pac-Mania machine for $362 (was $500). It also comes with 100 bonus stickers.


Evercade Alpha: A more versatile countercade

Evercade Alpha Mega Man: The Power Battle & Street Fighter II Champion Edition
Evercade Alpha Mega Man: The Power Battle & Street Fighter II Champion Edition

If you like the idea of a countercade but don’t want to be restricted to a small number of games, Blaze Entertainment’s Evercade Alpha releases November 28 in two styles: Street Fighter and Mega Man. Each countercade comes with six games made by Capcom, but the big draw here is support for the 60-plus Evercade cartridge compilations. Evercade cartridges are themed around classic arcade, console, and handheld games for $20-$25 each. Our Evercade Alpha review will be published soon; it’s a very impressive and versatile machine.

If you preorder the Evercade Alpha, you’ll save $20 off its $250 list price.
