Arcade 1ups - Decent?

[yakumo]

Someone is offering an Arcade 1 up Streetfighter cabinet for trade. Was wondering are these machines any good?. Plus how much is the machine worth as this is a trade.

I've seen them on Facebook marketplace for around £150.

Thanks, anyone own 1 and if they're any good or just standard emulation.

Awful, unfortunately. Poor quality joysticks and buttons, low quality cheapo LCD screen, (very) laggy emulation that doesn’t feel ‘right’ at all. I would avoid. They just aren’t worth the money.

I've got the Mortal Kombat Midway one. Seems decent enough to me but it isn't a first gen machine.

 

The only downside is if I want to put a Pi in it, I would have to re-do the button board as the buttle layout for Mortal Kombat isn't conventional.
