Anyone have any experience or more info on the Iconic Arcade cabinet available for preorder from GameStop. Price is $599. Powered by a Pi4, two player cabinet with a 21” screen. Seems like a decent overall deal for what you get?

What do you guys think?

Interesting, but I can't tell if it comes with some games or is just "compatible" with the different systems/ roms you have to find/ download yourself.

The cabinet looks pretty cheap and at that price I have to imagine the screen and joystick/buttons will be too. For something with a raspberry pi I'd rather just build it myself, but I'm a DIY type person and I know not everyone likes to do that stuff themselves.

Yep I have to agree with you Corrie.

I ended up grabbing the Atgames Legends Ultimate on sale at The Brick. $200 more but much bigger screen and better quality components I would think.
