I DO NOT MOD MY ARCADES ANYMORE LIKE THIS DUE TO BUTTON LAG AND DOWN LEFT JOYSTICK DOES NOT WORK. USE THIS METHOD INSTEAD ruclips.net/video/O4mSdCpEfT0/видео.html

Do this ^ if you already bought a switch fight stick deck!!!!
Great. I just bought one of those Switch decks from the video new off ebay and it is non refundable 😅
@@PreppyvibesAdeline ruclips.net/video/ekqL9wWkdbI/видео.html
Do this to it. Works way better.
@@Oracle_insight Thanks. So all I need are the buttons/joystick package with the encoder/speakers/drill bit? Do I still need the two NS from the last video?
@@PreppyvibesAdeline no you don’t need the magic ns adapters. If you have the parts from the last video; you just swap buttons out and replace with button kit from amazon.
For anyone wondering, this mod can only be done to Gen 1 or 2 Cabinets due to the older shapes of the cabs. The PCB will work and you could possibly do some DIY work to get the Switch Pad in, so technically you can with others, though much more work. WARNING, this will not work for any Vertical Style Game Cabinets, such as Pac-Man, Ms. Pac-Man, and Galaga. Your picture will be sideways due to the monitor being sideways on the cabinet. The Arcade Box has no options to rotate the screen either, so for Arcade1Up Models that have a Vertical Screen, this will not work at all.
Hi, is there anyway to know which ones are gen 1/2? Or are all mortal Kombat ones gen 1/2 I’m asking about mortal kombat because I like the style and look for the cabinet, thanks so much
@@gamerzlane936 Yeah, Gen1 or 2 have a bulkier design, depends when you bought it. Is it the one with Mortal Kombat 1 art, or 2, or 3 Ultimate?
@@gamerzlane936 also what games are on it?
is there a link to where i can purchase a gen 1 or 2 cabinet
You don't need to buy the switch controller for this to work. Just get new joysticks and USB encoders and wire it in.
I did exactly what you said for my final fight arcade and it works perfectly thank you for the video
Awesome!
Thanks for the tip about 16:9 and the bezels settings.
very simple and cheap mod, I’ve been looking into this for weeks. this is definitely the route I’m going to take, appreciate you. shout out to donkey kong country 🤞🏾
Its roughly 100x easier than all the other videos no? Rall thos latinfluencers autisti or sumfi lolthey lik careful this will break ur machine den proceed to break der machine. Dis guy plug n play while delivering more n better games w bestof both worlds on either nd. Lmk if u do it n if it works im goi optto enjoy capcom marvel beforei risk or go thru the investment n effort even for as superficial a mod as this ty
You literally just saved me a few thousand dollars. Great work bro.
Good luck, I know they made changes on some of the parts but let me know how it goes. I stopped modding my machines this way and now buy the button joystick kit instead. I have videos on how to do that if you look through my channel
So do you mean you do the retropie and buy the buttons and stick? Just bought a street fighter 2 machine today for 100 bucks from a lady and wanting more games. Researching best way to do this.
Centipede, Joust, Dig Dug, Frogger, Tempest, Galaga, Ms Pac-Man are some of the ones I grew up playing at the arcade.
Reason for asking about the Ghostbusters is because I’m trying to build a Ghostbusters themed arcade! Thanks!
Great video worked like a charm and for those wondering about the led bar and top sign lighting up I put the old control panel and old monitor motherboard inside the cabinet spliced a toggle switch on the positive on off switch on the old controller ran a 12v power supply to it and bam lights work I have a marvel vs capcom unit btw
Nice! Glad it worked for you!
@@Oracle_insight do you power off the arcade box or just the screen
@@jamez9021 I leave the arcade box powered on inside the arcade machine. I go to the menu screen and click shut down to turn it off. Then when I want to play I just unplug and plug back in and it starts right up.
@@Oracle_insight ok cool thanks
Do you need a no to do switch?
What's up...this inspired me to do the same...only thing I can't fig out is why it won't recognize the fighting stick...top row buttons just keep dancing
I had that problem on my second build with the switch fighting stick. Took me an hour and at some point it worked. Hit the Bluetooth button over and over, swapped player 1 with player 2. Tried with both plugged in and then with only 1 plugged in. And at some point it worked. I don’t know how. I went a different route with my newest build and bought a button kit and swapped the buttons out of the switch fighting stick. By doing this you don’t need the magic Mayflash adapters and it has less delays in the buttons and it fixes the down left joystick issue.
ruclips.net/video/ekqL9wWkdbI/видео.html
Watch this video on how to fix the switch fighting stick. It took me about an hour to swap the buttons and install this $40 kit. It is a must!
@@Oracle_insightwhat kind of usb cables are you using? I’m trying to sync the May flash with the switch stick but same thing just flashing red but won’t sync, in using Amazon basics usb wires
This is great, and seems easy to do. I'm not very computer savvy, so I appreciate mods like this - and Kevgret's.
I wonder, would a Racing wheel via a USB work for all the driving games without the need for the control deck? Seems like an easy way to set-up a racing cabinet. Thanks!
That might work, as long as the magic adapters can read it, it should work.
@@Oracle_insight Thanks. I'm gonna look into it.
Which colour blinking light on the magic stick do you have it set to?
LOL, you're description of plug and play, defers from mine. 😉
Night Slashers would be awesome to see. Hope it's on your game box. Fantastic game, hard as nails also. Great - and much easier - in co-op play.
Marvel Vs Capcom Need Retro Game Need 30.000 Love Work Enjoy:)
this only makes sense for games that use a few buttons, for instance setting up n64 controls on something like this would be a pain because you have to set up because you already have 9 buttons to map excluding the main joystick and the most buttons it has is 6 with these arcade 1 ups,playstation would never work either cause you have to map 2 joysticks and 10 buttons to map
Yes although you can plug in a controller that the arcade box comes with for games that don’t play well with the arcade buttons.
@@Oracle_insight Ive used emulec before and as you know it detects whats plugged in and remaps your save for that specific controller(arcade buttons/ controllers) and will switch it but youll need access to the box constantly
Add a controller...done😂
@@dennisveneman9469 doesnt work like that on these 🤮
Dude this is awesome, best DAD ever!!!
Battletoads ARCADE game is 🔥. It'll look good on that cabinet, look it up. At wasnt a console release. It's MAME I believe.
Hey great video Where did you get that MK cardboard box from
And does it come with Sega Saturn games as well
Hey bud
Thank for the video .. I have the same arcade can you provide me info. Where to purchase the same board and game box to do it at mines?? All details will help. Newbie on the arcades want to do something plug and play . TIA..
Hey man, I see no one replied, go ahead and follow the link in the description and it will take you to a page where you can get everything off Amazon. However, when you go to buy the arcade box, it will say it’s $90 on Amazon. Most people are getting them off AliExpress for around $47 but it will take about a month to get to you. So it’s up to you if you want to save $33 and wait a month for it to arrive.
Great video and such an easy mod!!
Thanks man, I’ve seen so many complicated videos online where they want you to make a raspberry pi and manually download games and order new buttons and joysticks and drill into the stock deck… I did some research and found a much easier way. You can also hook up an Xbox or PlayStation console. You could have the game box with 30,000 games and then get an hdmi splitter and have all your consoles hooked up if you wanted.
@@Oracle_insight exactly why I made my video... 5 minute mod.. no need to drill any holes or anything like that. I have a HDMI switch and have switch, gamebox, evercade, nvidia shield, all hooked up
Hey me and a few others have an issue with down left diagonal on the joystick, do you have that issues as well?
The link in the description doesn’t take me to Amazon. I get safari errors opening it from my iPhone.
Awesome tutorial!! Can you save games? Like when you play Mario 64 can you save your progress??
Yes it saves
@@Oracle_insight Sweet, Thanx!!
Great video. Very informative. Can you lock the options so that kids don’t accidentally button mash into the settings?
this is so cool! thanks for the info. Question -- what if I want to play the original arcade1up game again? (I have the marvel vs capcom arcade 1up cabinet.) Does this mean I would have to undo the mod and controller in the back, or is it included in the emulator?
I think the game is emulated on the arcade box
I'M TRYING TO CONFIGURE THE INTECHGAMING JOY STICKS WITH THE THE ARCADE BOX. PLEASE DO A VIDEO ON CONFIGURING.
I have other videos explaining the set up
They do look awsome from the uk considering getting one hope we can get the arcade box, just curios how does starwars trilotgy work with just the sticks and not a yoke ?
Pretty cool! Thanks for links as well
Is there saves game data saved? For instance, you played DK Country and I’m wondering does it save your progress to come back to later? For all games? High scores? If so, do they reset after unplugged?
Hi, you show 2 usbs cables coming out of the controller and going to the arcade box . Are there 2 usb ports behind the controller ? I understood it could connect only via Bluetooth
Yes it has 2 micro USB ports so you can plug it into mini consoles like the arcade box
@@Oracle_insight thanks, I'm planning to use a raspberry pi, I hope it's compatible
@@mattia1622 let me know how it works with the Pi
Any idea if the USB doggie for the controller will work on the super console x cube ?
Got a question for you. Can you use the original joysticks and buttons that come with 1up or do you have to buy the switch controller board?
Awesome video man, before I buy and try myself could you tell me other from the 2 street fighter games I could see on your game screen, which other ones are available? Thanks..
I’ll have to check but it had a lot of street fighter games, do this method instead when you modify yours. Don’t buy the Nintendo switch fighting stick. Or if you do buy the Nintendo switch fighting stick, replace the buttons and joysticks with a kit. Check this video out
ruclips.net/video/O4mSdCpEfT0/видео.html
@@Oracle_insight thank you!
Cool I'd like to do this if I ever get a used A1UP
ruclips.net/video/O4mSdCpEfT0/видео.html
Do this instead, the button kit works much better than the Nintendo switch fighting stick.
Do you have to use wires? Or can those magic usb do Bluetooth? Also, how did you make your power button on the system also turn on the arcade machine?
When using the arcade box you do need to wire it so the arcade box can recognize it. But if you are using a Nintendo switch it does have Bluetooth. It’s a pretty simple hook up with two micro to regular usb cords and the controls work great on mine. Currently I turn the system off by going to the options menu and clicking shut down. After it shuts down I just unplug it. When I’m ready to play I plug it in and it fires back on.
Can you share a video of you installing this all?
Hi, awesome video! Thank you! I have an original Pac-Man standup from the 80’s. Can that board fit it or any suggestions on what I can do with it ? Thank you!
Great video. Does it have Tac/scan? Old arcade game.
Are you able to use a button kit with usb encoder and plug that directly into one of those console boxs?
Haven’t tried it I wonder if someone on here has
@@Oracle_insight really nice setup youve got there 👌
Can’t get the magic ns May flash to pair with the switch fighting stick , any ideas why? Just flash red but won’t sync
Does this unit have Tekken tag, mortal kombat trilogy, metal gear solid from the ps1? How about the in game save feature as far as progress with the game you are playing?
Nice but for me raspberry pi was my best choice
Hey Greg what would you need to use the old pcb and deck to create a diy arcade1up
Can you look to see if there is a dream cast game called "Power Stone 2" please
I just got the simpsons 1up arcade. Would this work for it? Also since simpsons has 4 player could I set up all 4 for 4player games?
I think you would have to go a different route because this won’t fit a 4 player cab. The deck is meant for 1st and 2nd Gen 2 player models
Can you play old cabinet games from the arcades like magic sword or NFL Blitz Etc
I’ll have to look and see if those are on it
Do you know if the PCB board you used works with the tabletop 1up arcades? @Greg Walker
where should you plug in the micro usb in the arcade box or what?
How many games comes in the arcade box look like an easy set up. Might have to do it myself
Around 30,000 is what it says
do you have to replace the control deck ?? can i just add the game box and do the control deck at a later time?
Whats the best way to find out what GEN you have? I got the MK2 that has 12 games on it . When trying to get to the settings mode , I noticed that 2 player button actually puts me into settings . I really want more games , better sticks and buttons , and better speakers . I thought about moding the cabinet to accept a better monitor as well .
Check my other videos, I’ve modded the gen 3 with 12 games as well and have a whole step by step
hey greg so i got the joystick everything is set up and working my question is how do you use the power on on the joystick because the on off is on the game box
Nice 1 Bud, Anybody got a link for the board kit & will It fit a 2021 Street fighter 2 Legacy cabinet? Cheers, Liked n Subscribed From Scotland.
Check the description and click the like to know it link. You don’t need the app just scroll down and click the items I bought and it takes you to amazon.
Also check on amazon if it will fit your cab
Can you do this with just the arcade box? Because I have the same arcade1 cabinet
Followed everything you did in this video. Everything works great except for the sound. PS3 portion has sound but doesn’t have on any other game. Any ideas? Thanks for your help!
by PS3 do you mean PlayStation 3? The Arcade box doesn’t have PlayStation 3 in it. Are you using the Arcade Box that is listed in the description? If not then it may use different software.
Do you know the name of the silver box the the USB plugs into? You said magic or something and I couldn't find anything on Amazon.
Thanks
There’s a link in the description that takes you to a website called like to know it. Just scroll down when the page pops up and you will see a photo of each item needed.

Just scroll down a little bit and you will see a picture of the arcade box, the magic adapters, and the Nintendo switch fighting stick. Click the magic adapters and it will take you too amazon.
My USB wired controllers wont work with the arcade box anymore but it's fine bluetooth with the switch. Any ideas?
I Have gen 1 cabinet. Do I order the wireless arcade box and magic ns 1? Thanks for the video
I no longer mod my machines this way and highly recommend doing it this way in my other video. Click here > ruclips.net/video/O4mSdCpEfT0/видео.html
I have the 1up killer instinct cab would it work on it ?
Does it have shadows of the empire for 64, or batman returns for the super Nintendo
Dope
Thank you!’
Hi there just asking if killer instant mame, and all the street fighters on there? Asking bc those are the games I’m after thanks
You got any idea if you can do this to a arcade 1 up countercade
Hey you've had this set up longer than me I just got it but I'm having a issue on not being able to return to the game home selecte screen and advise
You need to set up a hot key button. Mine is start and select pressed together twice to return to the home screen. You set it up when you configure your buttons.
I'll try yours cuz I have one of the top green buttons but doesn't work
@@shelbyatkinson3452 cool let me know if it works
Is there a list of the games it comes with? Does it have the classic games like Joust, Defender, Pac-Man, Ms Pac-Man, Dig Dug Galaga, Arkanoid, Dragon's Lair, original Donkey Kong, Space Ace? Is there a section for your favorite games and can you save high scores? Thx
Yes it has all those games and different versions of them. I’m sure there is a list somewhere but it has everything. You have the option to pick a game system and then scroll though the games. You can also go to “all games” and then search for a specific game.
@@Oracle_insight Awesome! wondering, do you know if it will fit in my Mortal Kombat 2 legacy cabinet? Can I assume I could split power to use light up marquee?
@@sony4k270 I’ve heard of people using the legacy cabs but it not lining up quite right.
Also the Nintendo fight stick has its own speakers on it for sound.
@@Oracle_insight Greg which setting are you using for the Magic sticks? Thx
What about the legacy cabinets?
How’s you get the audio to work?
Did you buy the wired box or the wireless box also how does the fight stick hook up to the controllers I have one hooked up to my switch but done through Bluetooth
There’s two micro to USB ports on the Nintendo switch fighting stick. Just need two micro to regular usb cords to hook to arcade box. And doesn’t matter which one wired or wireless.
@@Oracle_insight good to know I didn’t know there were ports on it just thought it was wireless on the fight stick. Great video btw.
Can you play mortal kombat gold or any def jam games
Wow u need a magic stick? And set it to what for it to recognize the stick?
I have the same setup but my screen reads not configured. All buttons work but as soon as I select a game the start select and hit button no longer function. Lmk what you think, thanks.
*hot
Hey I now got all the parts you have and built the machine and I love it so far . The hard part is I have clipping on my monitor . I have a different screen than yours , I have the marvel super cabinet . So I can’t figure out how to stop the clipping . Any leads and thanks !
take a video of the screen and the inside of the cab, post and tag me in it so I can see what’s going on.
Would this work with Arcade1Up's cocktalil gaming cabinets?
Super Console X 256G Retro Video Game Consoles Built in 50,000+ Games,Dual System for 4K HD/AV Output,Compatible with PS1/PSP/AMIGA/NAOMI, WiFi/LAN, with 2 Wireless Controllers,
Questions: dose anyone know if I can do the same thing with this console??? I have this one please let me know
It should work. You still would need the magic adapters to read the Nintendo switch fighting stick. The magic control sticks allow your switch fighting stick to be recognized my most other consoles instead of just the switch. I’m about to upgrade my system to a mini pc that runs batocera. All I’m going to do is unplug the arcade box and plug in the mini pc game emulator. I will also plug in the magic control sticks into the mini pc so it recognizes the Nintendo switch fighting stick controller on my arcade.
@@Oracle_insight ok thank you
I did this to my galaga 1up it worked but my screen was sideways and I had to turn it on from the button from the lcd board can use some help
Do you know if the PCB board you used works with the tabletop 1up arcades
I do not know
Anyone know where to get a all characters unlock file for the Dreamcast version of mvc2. When I save using the state save it just freezes up the whole arcade box. The other version of mvc2 the controls seem to be locked for arcade stick only, unless anyone can tell me what controller setup using the stock controller the arcade box came with.
The switch fight sticks are sold out. Is there an alternative?
When you enter a game system you said you have to set the configuration up. I that everytime you use it or just the initial set up? Also do you think this will work with a vertical screen?
youll want to set up the controls with emulec and retroarch, first youll have to set it up in emulec, then quit and start in retroarch and set the controls up in input, but itll map all the games for you
@@kyles8524 I try to set up the controls in retro arch and hit save, but it still doesn’t detect the stick in game
@@TheSteelerFan58 Ive never seen a save function but when the controls are set up dont quit retroarch,choose the reboot retroarch then try it again in a game
Will this work on the mortal Kombat 3 ultimate 1 up machine
How do I go into training mode on my games using the arcade 1up?
Can it play marvel vs capcom 2 on the dreamcast?
I have the Magic Ns 2 could that be why it not working??
Since the video was made the firmware on the adapters has changed. Some people have ordered them and received the old firmware of the adapters and they work just fine while others have ordered the adapters and they have updated the firmware and they no longer recognize the controls. Your best route is to send back the adapters and order the button kit/joystick kit for $40. Follow my video below and replace the buttons and joysticks and the arcade box will recognize the controls with no issues.
@@Oracle_insight
Ok I will try that thanks for you help
If I new it was going to be this much of a hassle I wouldn’t of bothered lol 😂
@@donaldshanley963 it’s not hard at all to replace the buttons and joysticks, I’ve probably done about 20 of them by now and usually have it done within an hour or less. But yea it’s annoying that the company sending those out did that because now it requires more work
@@Oracle_insight would you know if Intec's own USB adapter would work?

Is the Mike Tyson Punch Out on it too?
Can anyone tell me if the arcade box has Fix it Felix Jr on it. I believe it was a Sega game.
I want arcade specific games. Like all the other 1up Games. Does it have that available?
How do you power off?
Ive been turning it all off at the wall. But each time i boot up. The second stick isnt connected and i have to reconnect it each time pressing the littel pair button. Is there a better way to do this?
Use a power strip or surge protector. Power down from the main menu then flip the switch on your surge protector.
Greg. I did this same setup today. Everything seems to connected correctly according to your steps. The deck powers on and I hear little static while it’s lit up, but nothing on the screen. Any ideas? Connections look ok
Does the screen when connected to another source ?
would this work on the shaq nba jam machine?
Can you do this on the mvc2 arcade1up machine that just came out?
Do u need to chang joy sticks
do you have a a link for the pcb replacement?
You didn’t list a link for the micro cable to usb so I didn’t order it! I’m sitting here all excited thinking I ordered everything on Amazon Monday it arrived Friday (yesterday) and I thought I’d enjoy it on Labor Day weekend and the control deck won’t connect lol
those cords i had laying around the house. i actually dont mod my cab this way anymore. the button joystick kit method is the best option
