Thanks for the in-depth review, appreciate it! As for some of games that the steering is too sensitive, that is limited by the emulators, so try using our sensitivity adjustment feature - hold START and A and hit the shifter up a few times. It should make a huge difference. Also, you have one of our newer firmware boards with the Deadzone adjustment. For a game like Rally Bike, hit START and shifter up 5 times or so and you'll also find a huge difference. Thanks!
I thought about this mod, but I actually like my stock R. Racer cab. I also got 2 F&F cabs coming in a few weeks. Totally pumped about being able to link 2 F&F's together!
Sounds cool man! I just sure hope they fixed the steering issues with F&F as the steering because it acts like you are driving drunk and your car is all over the place. lol That is what I found out playing F&F with TeknoParrot on my PC modded sit down Ridge Racer A1up cabinet.
@atranfanatic I did hear about that specific issue from a few sources, but I want to give these 2 cabs a try. Worse case scenario if everything just sucks I can bring both those F&F cabs back to the store.
Great Video Phil having a dedicated Racer and Shooter is a good way to go for a home arcade, especially a racer and buystuff keeps us on the road. thats the cabinet I should have jumped on more than any of the A1ups.
Thanks for share your experience. The community expects videos like this to find out what it's all about, how it works and what games it contains. Thanks !!!
I hope you decide to go with this for your RR it has everything on it! Thank you Todd! I was really excited when I saw this yesterday I had to show Kellie right away lol
Got the Star Wars BuyStuffArcade mod. So happy with it. SW cab gets so much more play now. Although PS1 games or anything that originally had a dpad don’t control the best. Everything else works like a dream. Mod what you got people.
@@PDX7 Star Wars mod plays all the arcade versions of the racers but requires a PC with a video card and is a more complex mod. It looks like more fun. I do like the Rave Racer game. I can play all the arcade racers on the Bee Kong mod just a yoke instead of a wheel and you use the buttons instead of a shifter or gass and brake pedal. How much was the Buy Stuff setup you installed?
It's for sure a cool mod for somebody that doesn't want the hassle of building a PC, then getting the games and controls to work on it. I for one wanted the games my Ridge Racer came with and many more. Which is why I wanted a PC build. It also helps that I'm techie and computer savvy and such. lol I love the original Ridge Racer games as I played them at the arcades and my PlayStation. I could pick up Ridge Racer 1 and beat it within hour every time I played it. lol And I normally am not a big fan of the bumper cam style racing games. But the Ridge Racer series is an exception. Got my encoder boards from Buystuffarcades yesterday for my Ridge Racer and started messing with it last night. It is so cool now that I have a PC sit down arcade racing cabinet! Now I just need to manually set my controls for MAME, Model 2, Model 3 and TeknoParrot. lol It's a start and I'm enjoying myself for the most part. lol I have over 100 arcade racing games and counting as well as the 5 the cabinet came with. Now I just have to get the controls working correctly. lol Anyway I will be making and dropping a video on my channel on that build here very soon.
My summation of the Ridge Racer Arcade1Up cab is every time I play I only make it to the second race. It is frustrating to me. It is my least played Arcade1Up.
It’s the best thing to happen to RR / Outrun! Thank you J I really appreciate you being here since day 1! I wasn’t sure how this video would turn out I rewatched it before I loaded it this morning:) Thanks J💪
So withthat splitter you cud play the buy stuff box....then switch input on the hdmi hub and play the original 5 games that came with the cab? I didn't know that was possible
It’s the best thing to happen to Ridge Racer, best part is there’s a mod coming for Star Wars cab and there will be one for F&F eventually. Buy Stuff is absolutely incredible!
I like your take on this because I bet there are people nervous about doing this or too lazy like me :) . I have a box and just ply it with a mariokart wheel for now . May eventually put It into my outrun I just love the way it looks in on Rr cab though I used to absolutely hate first person as well but then got into it . Took a few years Btw you can get that rave racer intro in there when it turns on but buy stuff would have to do it custom Idk how to do that yet but I have a few images that people did custom intros for me . Maybe I’ll try to learn that
Please let me know if you figure it out :) this is a great mod for someone like me completely stress free, I will be drawn to this cab for a while now I’ve invested a lot in this cab with everything I’ve done have to get my moneys worth :)
Phil nervous doing mods is too funny to me😂You crack me up😅I’m not too impressed with the console games on the collection, but it’s cool you have what you started with & were able to expand your library considerably!
Lol I get nervous about everything:) some aren’t going to knock your socks off, but Daytona is in this and it’s the only way I can play on an arcade. I’ve wanted this for so long and I even considered buying a Sega Saturn just to play. I will play this more than I did before and saved this cab from me selling it! Thanks for watching 6
I do love this mod. There are definite issues with some games and a lot of console versions. I wish I could have all the games as they were with the A1up included in this mod.
It’s mine too, I don’t think I’d mod my F&F cab. I’ve said this and people think I’m nuts, but I prefer our A1up over the real F&F. It’s a fun racing cab :)
They sold me on Star Wars pod racing. But tbh, I enjoy the ridge racer games. However, the wife and kids would get more use out of it if I did this mod. Once I mod it, then I’d have to change the graphics on the cab. That would be my next upgrade
I know when I modded my Street Fighter 2 cab I was nervous to do it at first. I turned it into a Mr. Do! using a raspberry Pi. Once I got into it, it was so easy to do.
I’m nervous about doing this myself, but I’m going to give in. I love arcade racing games, but the Ridge Racer ones are some of my least favorite. I desperately need more games on that cab
I've gone back and forth on this for months. Wish Atgames had announced that racing cab already just to know what or if it'll be. But I'm leaning towards waiting and doing the GT monitor swap. Cause if the Atgames racer ever comes out and is a simple usb plug and play Outrun and Ridge would probably be out of our game room.
It’s the reason I kept RR, I originally liked the games but I hardly played since purchasing in July and marquee going out didn’t help, but Buy Stuff saved this cab :) GT would be a cool option to use, it’s such a big cabinet I can never get rid of mine!
@@PDX7 i hate racing standing up. Thats the RR killer for me. I just don't have the room to do another seat mod like I did with Outrun. I love the GT xl cab. Absolutely stupid they put the crap monitor in it. Everything else is great. I'll probably order the Dell replacement next week.
I might have to also it’s such an eye sore, it would be nice for a sit down that’s comfortable, I just don’t have the room. Im on my feet all day like you and I get it, can only play so long but these games are great :) I’ll suffer through the pain!
@@bonesjackson81 I have 3 stand up racers n back issues so I never play standing . I use a stool n even put bass shakers underneath. Depending on your hight. You can sit back or kind of on the edge and I play for hours like that Even more than on my sit down
@@supermetalgamerman5930 i did that for awhile. Took the extensions off the stool. It was ok. Standing my issue is the awkward way off trying to brake. I wanna play left foot brake but impossible standing. Sitting the problem is the pedals are way too close together. Becomes a nut cruncher !
Rave Racer had weird feel to it. I call it "slip n' grip". Either slides out too much drifting or bites into the track too soon. I got used to it. Yeah, feels nice when you can make the top 10, but especially for the mountain course. So I take it all online times are gone with the mod as well obviously.
The variety of games are great but performance seems lacking especially in the 3d games. Looks like they’re running 30fps instead of 60. How’s the handling? Any lag or calibration issues?
I haven’t noticed any lag, but out of the 172 games there’s 10-20 that might struggle steering compared to the rest, but none of those are bangers :) it’s just a common issue you could run into with multicades. I think anyone who purchases will love this, it’s so much better than the 5 games included with RR cab. Thanks for watching trev04!
So I take it some of the PlayStation Ridge Racer games might be emulating that NeGecon thing or whatever it was called for analog steering? (Some controller you twisted to steer. I only played digitally with the original controller)
Yes, but from my stance I wasn’t completely in love with the 5 games. Losing the actual arcade roms didn’t hurt, because I mostly wanted Daytona. It’s a great mod for this cab, there are a lot of fun games that play really well on here :)
Awesome job, Phil. It looks great. Now I just have to get to mine. Haha. I am looking forward to Mike's video also. Because I'm wondering if the turbo button on the Outrun gearshift will still work on Outrun Turbo. One other thing, what is the networking option for, just firmware updates? Or can you play others online?
Yes, the OutRun gearshift button is set as a second A button and works for Turbo. There are 31 local network games on our Racing Boxes for 2-8 players.
If and when your shifter goes limp, the springs on them brake easy very flimsy I fixed with rubber ban since I was out of warranty great instructional video
Thank you Dave! I worry about that now because we use the shifter so much more now to toggle through menu. I drive automatic hasn’t been used a lot up until now :)
That’s a great idea! I’m happy you were able to get RR at least, these should really be available everywhere. Hope yo see that in the future, Thank you for watching 👊
@@PDX7 yeah outrun was big in uk back in the 80s so odd it wasn't released here hopefully they re released it. Love your videos I took your advice on the big blue as I own yoga flame and you convinced me and was great advice as I love it.
@user-ck7my4dh4k it’s a tough choice, both are great in their own way. Do you want 5 racing games or 1 lightgun game? It’s hard for me because I turned both into multiplayer cabs. I’m leaving towards RR
I’d say 6 weeks, I did add the audio option 2.0 amp after I placed my order along with the 1.1 upgrade and everything shipped together. It was near the end of February and I received it last week. Thank you for watching corigami7!
I wonder if the game box can be modded to add more games? It's a little disappointing that playstation versions of games are used and not the arcade versions.
I think you can there are extra ports, I might be wrong but these versions might run smoother and that’s why they went with them. I can honestly tell you when your playing you think it’s the real thing in a lot of these. Thanks for watching Retro Replay!
If the arcade versions would run well, they are on the box. Unfortunately, MAME is not very optimized in many ways, so it's not always possible without using a PC build. But our encoder board does work well with PCs and consoles as well, so that is always an option.
All I can tell you is my marquee started flickering and it would completely turn off. I found a Simpsons replacement peeled off sticker and bought a Szabo’s marquee and it works perfect. Do you have RR or Outrun?
@@PDX7 yes I double check my connections I opened up the control board doesn't look like any loose connections the Marquee only flickers when the rumble pack is in use
@@PDX7 Thanks anyway. There are instructions, but they are poorly written and vague. They just say to long hold the coin button. But it doesn’t say which menu screen to do it on, what type of indication you will receive, or what to do next. It also offers no illustrations or image shots so you’re just left guessing. I’ve tried numerous permutations of the coin long hold but none have resulted in an add/remove option. It’s not a huge deal as the game is still playable and fun. It’s just annoying to have to go through the entire menu every time to find the specific game I want to play.
The thing that is interesting about this mod is that it has a curated list of games that is configured properly. Most of these android box setups are all janky and require a lot of emulation setup to get every game working properly. I don’t like that you lose all the original games from the pcb. That would make it a no go for me. Especially losing rave racer.
I wish they could’ve kept Rave and Ace Driver 1 and 2, other than that its perfect :) I’m going to play this a lot they did a great job with it. I just didn’t play RR enough this gives me a 2nd wind. Thank you for watching Bo!
I noticed you only showed gameplay of the titles that play well. Unfortunately, many of the titles included in this kit have significant slowdown, audio stuttering, graphical glitches, etc. I'm not sure if they're bad ports, bad emulators, or underpowered hardware (or all of the above), but it definitely detracts from the experience. I wish Buy Stuff had only included the games that play well. There's still a good number of solid, fun titles, but there's also too much filler that's basically unplayable.
Thanks for watching Paul, I agree with you there are some that don’t play great. I would say it’s a 50/50 cab I found enough value to be happy with this, I do hope the SW mod will be better. Im really looking forward to seeing the difference.
@@PDX7 Thanks for the reply! I totally agree it's a worthwhile mod, it's just got a lot of "filler" that makes the whole experience less impressive than it could be (nothing worse than finding one of your favorite titles, only to discover you can't really play it). I'm running version 1.12 (the most recent), and I'm sure they fixed a lot of prior issues, but they could do a lot just by removing titles that don't play well and being ok with that.
Do you have Star Wars and are you interested in adding their mod to that also? It doesn’t get much play I’m hoping Roadblasters is on this mod would be perfect for flight yoke.
We included what we could that would run well without requiring a PC. With a PC build, you can run whatever you'd like, of course. But console racing games are often superior in many ways to arcade racers - don't quite understand the bias, even though we hear it commonly.
Thanks for the in-depth review, appreciate it! As for some of games that the steering is too sensitive, that is limited by the emulators, so try using our sensitivity adjustment feature - hold START and A and hit the shifter up a few times.

All I can tell you is my marquee started flickering and it would completely turn off. I found a Simpsons replacement peeled off sticker and bought a Szabo’s marquee and it works perfect. Do you have RR or Outrun?

I guess double check your connections and if it keeps up please let me know.
@@PDX7 yes I double check my connections I opened up the control board doesn't look like any loose connections the Marquee only flickers when the rumble pack is in use
Must really vibrate, I haven’t noticed after I changed my light box. Keep an eye on it if it gets worse I know where to find replacements.
How do you remove/add favorites to the favorites list?
I’ve never tried to add any, there’s gotta be a direction in instruction sheet they give you. I always just go to Daytona :)
@@PDX7 Thanks anyway. There are instructions, but they are poorly written and vague. They just say to long hold the coin button. But it doesn’t say which menu screen to do it on, what type of indication you will receive, or what to do next. It also offers no illustrations or image shots so you’re just left guessing. I’ve tried numerous permutations of the coin long hold but none have resulted in an add/remove option. It’s not a huge deal as the game is still playable and fun. It’s just annoying to have to go through the entire menu every time to find the specific game I want to play.
@captainbryce1 I know it can be frustrating, I’m sorry I can’t help I’ve never thought about it. D comes up pretty quick :)
The thing that is interesting about this mod is that it has a curated list of games that is configured properly. Most of these android box setups are all janky and require a lot of emulation setup to get every game working properly. I don’t like that you lose all the original games from the pcb. That would make it a no go for me. Especially losing rave racer.
I wish they could’ve kept Rave and Ace Driver 1 and 2, other than that its perfect :) I’m going to play this a lot they did a great job with it. I just didn’t play RR enough this gives me a 2nd wind. Thank you for watching Bo!
I noticed you only showed gameplay of the titles that play well. Unfortunately, many of the titles included in this kit have significant slowdown, audio stuttering, graphical glitches, etc. I'm not sure if they're bad ports, bad emulators, or underpowered hardware (or all of the above), but it definitely detracts from the experience. I wish Buy Stuff had only included the games that play well. There's still a good number of solid, fun titles, but there's also too much filler that's basically unplayable.
Thanks for watching Paul, I agree with you there are some that don’t play great. I would say it’s a 50/50 cab I found enough value to be happy with this, I do hope the SW mod will be better. Im really looking forward to seeing the difference.
@@PDX7 Thanks for the reply! I totally agree it's a worthwhile mod, it's just got a lot of "filler" that makes the whole experience less impressive than it could be (nothing worse than finding one of your favorite titles, only to discover you can't really play it). I'm running version 1.12 (the most recent), and I'm sure they fixed a lot of prior issues, but they could do a lot just by removing titles that don't play well and being ok with that.
Do you have Star Wars and are you interested in adding their mod to that also? It doesn’t get much play I’m hoping Roadblasters is on this mod would be perfect for flight yoke.
there's too many console racers
But they look good and you’ll be impressed on how they play on either cab
PlayStation versions of ridge racer
Worse version of Daytona
N64 games
This ain’t it mate
Thank you for watching Jaguar 32X, I know but it brings more value for me than the original 5 games for RR.
Real bummer these are not arcade roms
You might not notice much of a difference on these.
We included what we could that would run well without requiring a PC. With a PC build, you can run whatever you'd like, of course. But console racing games are often superior in many ways to arcade racers - don't quite understand the bias, even though we hear it commonly.
Great job 👏.. and yea buy stuff is the best simple mods plug band play!! 👌👍🔥🔥🐲😍🕺🦾
Thanks Bobby, your video completely sold me that you loved Buy Stuff I knew this would be a must to get! 👊💪 hopefully I’ll see you Wednesday night!
