The riser is the booster placed under your Arcade1Up to raise it to a comfortable playing height for adults. Without riser, the cabinet is about 4ft tall, requiring bending. With riser, it reaches about 5ft, ideal height for standing play.
The standard Arcade1Up riser measures approximately 18" x 22" x 12" (45.7 x 55.9 x 30.5 cm). It adds about 12 inches of height to your cabinet.
The riser offers an often overlooked additional customization surface. A customized riser perfectly complements your entire cabinet.
No, it's an optional accessory. However, for an adult playing standing up, it's highly recommended for comfort. Children can play without riser.
Third-party alternatives exist but check dimension compatibility. Some DIY risers also allow integrated storage.
The marquee is the most iconic element of any arcade cabinet. This lit sign at the top of the cabinet immediately catches the eye and defines your machine's identity. On Arcade1Up, marquee replacement is one of the simplest and most impactful modifications.
Side art represents the largest visible surface of your Arcade1Up cabinet. These two side panels truly define your machine's visual identity and are often the first thing noticed when entering a room. Quality side art instantly transforms your cabinet's appearance.
The control panel is your cabinet's interaction zone: it's where your hands spend the most time. A custom control panel overlay not only improves aesthetics but can also protect the surface from wear marks. It's an essential element of successful customization.
