This is an extended arcade1up control panel made by Tulsa Arcades (excellent third party home arcade company, who actually still makes this panel if you wanted one made from scratch! Check their site or pages).
This was made to enlarge the arcade1up decks so 2 adults can actually play comfortably on.
Neither myself nor Tulsa Arcades have tested this to work on any cabinet outside the initial first wave of A1Up machines (so the shark fin type of cabinets from the first and second round of releases is what this was designed for).
So if you have a legacy cabinet or one of the more recent ones that resemble the Midway style of cabinets, it’s not likely to fit (at least not without altering the cabinet or control panel this can also serve as a starting point for an arcade pedestal cabinet. It’s not ideal in its current form for a portable controller, as it’s wide open on the bottom, but can certainly be finished off to be a countertop or pedestal setup for a home arcade.
I bought it for my Mortal Kombat 2 cabinet, but didn’t want the artwork to resemble MK specifically, so I just used their template to use something that still fits with the lightning and colors of the artwork of the cab.
It has a removable Plexi cover, so you can also put your own art on there as well. Plexi has light scuffs from usage, but not noticeable when laid on panel.
Includes 4 long screws to secure panel to original drilled holes on cabinet.
I also have optional buttons and control sticks for a small additional charge if you would like to add to your order. I’ve labeled in the pictures what kind of buttons each are.
Pick any 16 buttons and/or control sticks in a message after checkout.
USB encoders and wiring are NOT included.
I'm setting a flat shipping fee of $35. If it ends up being more, I'll take the loss. If it's less, I'll refund the difference. It will likely be UPS Ground.
