Ms. Pac-Man, Galaga and Dig Dug. There are no other titles and no way to add games.

How does it compare with a full-size Arcade1Up cabinet?

It is much smaller, with a 7-inch screen and a three-game lineup. Full-size cabinets have larger screens and more games but take up far more room.

It runs on four AA batteries, which are not included, or on micro-USB power. Plugging it in avoids battery drain.

Can two people play at once?

No. It has a single control panel, so play is one player at a time.

Is it easy to move around?

Yes. It has a built-in handle and is light enough to carry between rooms.

Our take on the Arcade1Up Class of ‘81 Ms. PAC-MAN / GALAGA Countercade

A tabletop mini arcade cabinet with a 7-inch LCD screen and full-size joystick and buttons. It plays three classics: Ms. Pac-Man, Galaga and Dig Dug. It runs on four AA batteries or micro-USB and has a built-in handle, so it moves easily between rooms. It suits fans of retro arcade games who want a small, playable cabinet rather than a full-size one, and it costs far less than Arcade1Up's upright cabinets while offering fewer games and a much smaller screen.
