The world kinda sucks at the moment, so now is as good a time as any to reminisce with these cheap Arcade1Up arcade cabinets. Walmart has cut the price of a few big-name games like Street Fighter and Star Wars, and some are much more affordable than normal. For example, a 4-foot Space Invaders cabinet is $149.99 (opens in new tab) at the moment, saving you $150 overall. Meanwhile, the Street Fighter Head 2 Head Table is $399.99 (opens in new tab) instead of $500. It's still a weighty price tag, but we won't complain at something so cool being $100 cheaper than it should be.
Besides, Arcade1Up arcade cabinets boast good build quality, are officially licensed, and pack in a ton of nostalgic features. That Street Fighter table allows you to play opposite a friend, for instance. It includes 12 games to go with its authentic controls, too - six Street Fighter titles and half a dozen other classics such as 1989's Final Fight. Meanwhile, the Space Invaders cabinet stands 4 feet tall with original artwork and an authentic joystick and button setup. As for the Star Wars arcade machine (which has $50 off, bringing the cost down to $449 (opens in new tab)), it features the same attention to detail albeit with a Riser that lifts its height. It also houses iconic adaptations of the original Star Wars trilogy.
