    Great review Rexer! The 5 interesting facts were surprising; why they chose to implement color etc. At $199 I’m uninterested but I would be a first-time purchaser at around $100-$150. I see a lot of guys having these in a diorama in their game rooms but never actually playing them. At this price I can’t justify having it sit around collecting dust as a show piece.

    Rexer,
    Berzerk is one of my all time favorite Arcade machines and this was an absolute pre-order. I originally had trouble with mine, but support got back with me and all my issues were resolved.
    Berzerk is the second 3/4 scale cabinet I added to my Home Arcade, I skinned a Rec Room Masters Alphacade. It has 2 large black bat top HAPP joysticks that make it a joy to play (not to mention having 2 quality joysticks makes it great to play twinstick games like Robotron and Black Widow as well).
    I only remember playing Berzerk back in the day with the large black Bat Top, so I'm glad New Wave Toys included it here. The only disappointment on this Replicade for me is the lack of Stern logos, especially egregious on the actual rom showing Atari instead of Stern. Now, I get that Atari now owns the rights to Berzerk, and I'd rather have New Wave Toys release this than not, but I wish license holders understood what companies like New Wave Toys are trying to do, closely recreate the original machine. Still, I'm VERY HAPPY to have this 1/6 scale Berzerk.
    Have a great one!

      This one is especially for you. Anyone who likes berzerk has to get this !! I wasn’t bothered by missing logos. Yes it would be cool, but it’s not like removing Johnny cage from the Mk side art. That’s a little bigger deal. But nobody should be disappointed.

    Great Review! But I am curious why you enjoy these smaller machines vs other companies products? For example if this was a Bigger or half sized cabinet review. I am sure you would have given them more Hell on the controls being not 100% correct and that you would rather play the full size cabinet. Just be Honest! That is all I ask. (But I also understand you don't want to upset the company who given you a Review copy). I just find it Funny is all.

    • @therexershow
      @therexershow  Před 2 měsíci +1

      You obviously didn’t watch my other NWT reviews. They weren’t great reviews. These are not meant to be played like a 3/4 scale or full size. These are mostly for display and looks. (Although I guess everyone buys 1ups for display and looks too, so I guess this argument isn’t good ). But supposedly , 3/4 scale arcades are meant to be played. So when the playing experience sucks horribly, it’s a much bigger factor than when a tiny arcade isn’t easy to play. Nobody goes into buying these things and says , “this is going to be exactly like playing the real arcade.” As for the joystick complaint I had , what you don’t know is that they don’t use GRS sticks , so maybe if they used GRS mini stick , it would be better.

    Wasn't very impressed with the quality of this cabinet. Feels cheap and not as good as Dragons lair and Space ace.( I actually thought id been sent a cheap rip off cabinet)
    Also prefer the power and volume buttons at the back of the cabinet. I wont be purchasing another cabinet after this one. Would really liked a gauntlet or dragons lair 2. But its my last one. It doesn't even say coin detected in pocket 🤦🏻‍♂️
