Got my custom graphics Rec Room 32" cabinet & PC built. Just waiting on the drives & super pixelcade marquee. Thanks for this review, it really made my decisions a lot easier.
I was just about ready to pull the trigger on this cabinet after months of researching. Then I tried to go to the website but discovered that Rec Room Masters went out of business. I don't know what cabinet to get now. 😕
@@UrGamingTechie I just read yesterday that they are coming back. Check their website, it is back up and saying that they are coming back soon. I read somewhere else it's a new owner who bought all the designs and plans to keep making them the same way.
I bought this and love it EXCEPT for the placement of the spinner. It is a bit awkward and my palm is always hitting the bottom buttons..... keep that in mind
Just wondering if the light up track ball comes standard or did you modify it? Every other video I’ve seen with that control panel just has a white ball
Does the art look glossy/laminated? I've seen the Game Room Solutions art for their cabinets and it looks dry and matte. I wanted to inquire if recroommasters would do art separately but their website is currently down.
What software did you use to light up the trackball. I just bought this same controller and it has a rgb trackball. I tried ledwiz and ledblinky but neither work to light the trackball. Thanks for any help you can provide
The 2019 version shown here only leds up in red and can’t be controlled. There new full RGB unit which I upgraded to and did a video on, is fully controlled with all colors with ledblinky
The lid for keyboard it’s hard to open even with the handle, because the position of the knob been too low, I installed more upwards and it’s really easy to open for me. Jus t a little observation. Congrats!!!
Happy New Year my friend. I was thinking of getting a hyperspin set but wanted to ask a couple questions. How much extra drive space do you need when doing cloud download? I mean, you can't download the 16TB set on a 16TB drive as it would take up bit of space. And how is the compatibility for Teknoparrot? Lots of non working games? Does the reseller have a way of handling non working roms or do you have to just click a game and find it doesn't work?
Happy new year. As far as the drive the seller has a very good support system. Some games for Tekno dont work, thats the nature of it, nothing to do with the drive, but there is a community with the drive so you can ask others if they got it to work or if the game is currently broken etc due to emulation. No complaints here. Also i didnt need any extra space, you ftp for the download so exact space works fine
Do they make bezels to hide the tv trim area ? Love rec room masters but feel like if they shipped with bezel they would look better. Awesome cab. What spec PC are you using ?
Thanks for sharing. I'm thinking about upgrading my controller, but one thing bugs me. How is the placement of that spinner? Seems like the player 1 joystick is in the way for spinner games.
Great looking machine! I don’t have the room yet for the cabinet, however I want to get the control board you have, but I need to know what type of computer I can get to put games on? And the type of TV I’ll need, I’ll be putting in the arcade cabinet next year.
Congratulations, looks great! I can’t express how much I love my setup and it is always the focus of conversation in my man cave. Congrats again brother!
do you have the PC specs you put the 1050 TI into by chance? I believe you mentioned you put it into a Dell machine? Also, the lightup trackball. Did recroom put that in for you? Or did you do that after market?
Great video! Your review lead me to purchase this cab about two weeks ago and it's a dream come true. Mapping the controller has been the biggest issue but I finally figured out everything but the two mouse buttons. When using the Winipac utility I see a PIN for MO LEFT and MO RIGHT but i don't know what to map it too under Primary. Any help would be appreciated!
Im going to buy this myself this year going to use an Odroidxu4 for the emulation thought about a arcade one up but why not go with this spend the extra money and get way more im going with the 4 player version
Just got this, I hate the placement of the spinner. My right palm hits the lower buttons. Too far to the left as well and not a great view of the screen. Might be swapping it out for the 4 player.....
Just flip the switch to turn on the 4 player controller and it disabled the main 8 way stick and it's buttons. Your spinner and it's buttons as well as your 4 way and its 2 buttons will be the only ones working
Getting ready to order this now. I'm really curious as to how it will be to play Tron without a stick/button combo like the Tron Arcade Flight Stick. Guess I'm gonna find out. Thanks for the review!
You could put an Ultimarc Ultrastik 360 FS in place of the 4 way. 8 way Happ's are tight enough sticks that 4 way games have no issues. You don't need a 4 way stick.
Did hyperarcadesystems send you a physical drive or did you do the cloud option? I would think to download everything would also take forever, even with decent bandwidth speeds.
Did you purchased the arcade already pre setup with the PC and all the games? I’m thinking of getting one but don’t want to built a pc strong enough to run all the latest games.
How’s the sensitivity on the spinner and trackball? I’m thinking of getting this someday I originally wanted the 4 player version but realized I don’t think I’d have that many friends over that often so this one would be a better bet.
Nice video! I just got mine I too but had couple questions before I assemble.... 1. What light gun brand and model do you have, and how accurate is it when you use it on Shooters like House of the dead? Pretty accurate like the original? 2. Unfortunately my monitor I'm using does not have a remote, So I'll need to physically touch the buttons underneath it to change settings. The plexiglass is in the way though unless I just don't install it. My question is, does that plexiglass SLIDE UP easily so I can get my hands under the monitor to change settings? I noticed the plexiglass slides down at the top portion of the cabinet when assembling. I have not assembled the top portion of the unit yet, so I was just wondering if sliding it upwards so I can get to the bottom of the monitor was a possibility. .. VERY IMPORTANT QUESTION LOL
KJ MullinZ 1. Gun brand is the Ultimarc aimtrak, def get the recoil one adds some fun to it. Works well not as accurate as the real machine Were but it’s really the only option currently and it’s fun as hell regardless 2. It does slide up a few inches, but not sure it’s enough to get to ur tv buttons. But u can remove is very easily even after ur all done if it doesn’t work for you. Just remove the top sodden board and u will have access to remove the plexiglass.
@@UrGamingTechie thanks for the prompt reply! ...The button settings on my monitor are located directly In the middle under the monitor, so the FEW INCHES you are referring to when sliding up the plexiglass from the front should be enough to access those buttons you think? If not, if I decide to just take the top board off, will I need a stool? ...I'm 6'2". And couldn't I just remove the top to just slide the plexiglass up a little in order to have access to the monitor buttons, or will I need to remove the plexiglass completely each time I want to get access to the buttons? .... I'm basically trying to find the quickest and simplest route to just simply change the input on the monitor between different consoles without having to remove the glass completely all the time.
KJ MullinZ it might be enough if it’s right at the bottom. Why not just get a universal remote might be must easier then touching the glass and worry about smudging it
@@UrGamingTechie unfortunately, it's a LG GAMING MONITOR and no remotes exist from what LG told me. : ( Thinking of adding a little handle in the bottom middle of the plexiglass so I can slide it up with ease without having to smudge the glass. That's why I'm trying to see how far it will slide up. Thankfully, the button settings are directly under the monitor in the middle dead center
Hey man, I cab looks great! I bought the same board and have the same wheel but I cannot get the spinner off. Did you have to do something to disconnect it?
Calcium Director it’s not gone, he’s working on a lot of projects for next couple weeks to improve the drive even further and took the website down till his done in a couple weeks from getting new orders.
I didn't think they altered the sticks? Did you add the red sticks and lit track ball yourself? I also want to add a rotating joystick - do they have parts for that?
@@UrGamingTechie I must be missing something. I have a gun from Arcade Guns. Do you have a tutorial you can recommend , what software did you use? Thank you.
BigPoppa arcade guns software is actually what I used but I didn’t have a tutorial cause they just worked but I didn’t setup the emulator it was pre setup for me with this system
Listen mate if I'm spending a grand or more on an arcade. It better come completely assembled got it! Plug and play not spending that kind of money and have to bloody work to.
@@UrGamingTechie That's not what I'm saying. I watched your video mainly for info and entertainment. I have no interest in making a purchase of that particular device. I'm completely happy with what I have lad.
Part of this hobby for many of us is the fun of building, customizing and tinkering with our cabinets. An assembled cabinet is very, very expensive. I once looked at a $400 DK replica, wood only, no parts whatsoever, and the shipping would've been $550. Even the cheap Arcade1Up's need assembly. Your best bet is to find a multicade someone else has built that you can find locally. Drive it home and play. But you'll want to be sure to adjust your attitude because if you talk to anyone in person the way you are talking on here you won't get past a phone call. Just a little advice mate...
Megacade cost like 3x as much, not to mention i disagree, emulation is dependent on the pc and how you configure software. And i have hardly any issues even with all the games ive tried with my setup from the guy i purchased from in the link in the video.
Where are you recroommasters?
LOOKS GREAT!!!
Where did you get the wheel for the spinner?
very solid arcade
Recroommasters closed its doors.

YOU GOTTA RASPBERRY PIE FOR IT, NO???
I bought this and love it EXCEPT for the placement of the spinner. It is a bit awkward and my palm is always hitting the bottom buttons..... keep that in mind
Can I still get the xtension controller with spinner and trackball?
Just wondering if the light up track ball comes standard or did you modify it? Every other video I’ve seen with that control panel just has a white ball
It was an upgrade option
@@UrGamingTechie cool thanks
I just ordered a drive from them. Can't wait
Is there a wheel for modern windows games like modern mortal kombat, street fighter and killer instinct 2013?
yes
Does the art look glossy/laminated? I've seen the Game Room Solutions art for their cabinets and it looks dry and matte. I wanted to inquire if recroommasters would do art separately but their website is currently down.
Yes the art looks great
Does it have DosBox? Thank you.
It does
For the keyboard door, remove one of the metal plates. You only need one, and one still holds it really well.
What software did you use to light up the trackball. I just bought this same controller and it has a rgb trackball. I tried ledwiz and ledblinky but neither work to light the trackball. Thanks for any help you can provide

I GOTTA SUPER CONSOLE X PRO THAT PLAYS A LOTTA CONSOLES ON IT LIKE THE ODDYSSY 2!!!
thank you for this simple straight forward rundown
CAN YOU PLAY LIKE PS4 GAMES ON IT?
The lid for keyboard it’s hard to open even with the handle, because the position of the knob been too low, I installed more upwards and it’s really easy to open for me. Jus t a little observation. Congrats!!!
dammit well canot do anything about that now or else id have a hole lol

You can use a normal pc that you don’t use anymore and is semi decent or you could use a raspberry pi
Congratulations, looks great! I can’t express how much I love my setup and it is always the focus of conversation in my man cave. Congrats again brother!
do you have the PC specs you put the 1050 TI into by chance? I believe you mentioned you put it into a Dell machine? Also, the lightup trackball. Did recroom put that in for you? Or did you do that after market?
Rion Johnston trackball recroommasters offer, and yea it was a regular dell machine I had as a spare i7 machine.

Where you live got to have you come over help me make an emulator pc
I like that they give you a fluorescent under the counter fixture for the marquee. Do you know the size?
sorry not sure i would ask their support
Never mind, I just figured it out. Keep the these video's coming!
Im going to buy this myself this year going to use an Odroidxu4 for the emulation thought about a arcade one up but why not go with this spend the extra money and get way more im going with the 4 player version
Dude, never new about some of those games, I will add some of those to my favorites.
Dennis Mangual Awesome I’ll be doing a top 10 mame games I like that no one talks about sometime in next month

A question:RecRoomMasters built that same arcade machine to a 40" tv or only to 32" tv?
It's a 32inch I have
@@UrGamingTechie Yes i know but do you know if they build to monitors of 40 inches too
Did hyperarcadesystems send you a physical drive or did you do the cloud option? I would think to download everything would also take forever, even with decent bandwidth speeds.
I did the download took two weeks to download everything almodt
@@UrGamingTechie Yeah I figured something like that. I just paid to have the 24TB drives sent to me instead.
Build with wired 360 controllers? Man that’s weak
Did you purchased the arcade already pre setup with the PC and all the games? I’m thinking of getting one but don’t want to built a pc strong enough to run all the latest games.
How’s the sensitivity on the spinner and trackball? I’m thinking of getting this someday I originally wanted the 4 player version but realized I don’t think I’d have that many friends over that often so this one would be a better bet.
Agent Chris awesome, the trackball is great and so is the spinner
UrGamingTechie Thanks for the reply. This machine would be a cool thing to have that’s for sure
I want something like this what does it go for
What hard drive did you buy? How much did it cost? Clicked on the link below but, I like what you got set up, so just wondering.
Should have read the comments first lol. What is the difference between the 2 tb and 16 tb, the amount of games?

It's a shame it's so damn expensive. Even more so for Canadian customers :(
Does it play Doom?
It’s a gaming Pc attached to this so it plays doom just fine
SO HOW MUCH MOOLAH WILL THIS SET ME BACK? HOW MUCH WILL THIS BEAST COST ME MONEY WISE???
Any PlayStation 2 games? 1050ti is way Overkill for retro gaming but that makes things nice and fast and perfect.
Andrew Borntrager yes for sure, also Pc games as well
What software is used to pull in all the games in your pc all in one?
Eric M hyperspin
Hey man, I cab looks great! I bought the same board and have the same wheel but I cannot get the spinner off. Did you have to do something to disconnect it?
Andrew Ward yes there’s a Allen screw inside that you have to loosen first, I use an Allen and loosened it then it came off
Where did you guys get the wheel? I have the wheel from Glenn at GRS Arcade but it's too big
You didn't link the place where you got the hard drive with everything on it from. Please put a link to it in the description, thanks.

Nice video, thanks! Can you get LED buttons?
May I ask what did you put in place to be able to hang the 360 controllers?
I didn't think they altered the sticks? Did you add the red sticks and lit track ball yourself?
I also want to add a rotating joystick - do they have parts for that?
they did just the color of the sticks and the lit trackball is something new they offered the same time i placed my order
Hey what size hard drive did you get from that link? I was thinking about the 2tb but I wanted to see what you got before I pull the trigger.
Fernando da Silva 16tb
What did you do in terms of an external power button or just turning it off? (Assuming you don't just leave it on)
