Arcade Mania Avis 

Excellent product and excellent before and after sales service, which is very much appreciated.

I ordered a Bubble Bobble machine from Arcade Mania and it is absolutely beautiful! The build quality is solid and I can tell this machine is going to last me for years and years. I went all out on extras and I was not disappointed. The front amp control and the scan line generator are the cherry on top of a delicious arcade (raspberry) pie. I did a lot of searching for an arcade cab before purchasing and no where else had such beautiful works of art as Arcade Mania.

We are very pleased with both the arcade machine that Arcade Mania made for us as well as the service they provided.

The bar-top we bought is amazing for the price! The quality of finish, components used and look of the graphics are all very good. Specially the look! Really does have that retro feel.

In short. Amazing, simply amazing.

If you want a bespoke home arcade machine, this is the place to get one. I've wanted a bartop arcade machine for years now and never felt like I could trust a company to give me what I wanted. Until now.

The cabinet itself is well built, beautifully designed and decorated. You can take your pick from hundreds of designs too. Sturdy is a word I'd use and as it's something that I plan to keep forever, that's exactly what you want.

The screen is also high quality, bright and clear, exactly what you want for a retro machine and the software runs a clever version if Raspberry Pi to run all the games and utilities. It just works.

There are more games than I know what to do with, which is great. You can pick different packages based on your needs though. I have around 8000 though, as an example!

The other great thing about this company is the guy who runs it, Rod. He's been very patient with all my questions and seems to genuinely care that the customer get what they wants. It's a great service. I feel like any issues I run into down the line, he'll be ready to help.

So, in conclusion, if you have an interest in one of these bartop arcade machines and are worried about taking the plunge; know that this company should be your first and last point of call. Don't risk a dodgy ebay machine on your dreams!

Mania board - fantastic! Son loves it, keeping 2 boys entertained. Looks brill and can be put away out of mums way. Happy son happy mum.
Amazing service from all the guys at arcade mania.

I received my Defender machine in under a week. Fantastic build quality, delivery and the aftersales online service has so far been amazing.

A really good quality product.

Excellent product which is built like a tank. Quality components and excellent finish. Rod from arcademania was so helpful during the build and was always able to answer my questions. I chose a retro pie build with 8000 games and a Star Wars theme and it is amazing.

I wholeheartedly recommend arcademania, amazing products and the best customer service I’ve seen in years.

Rod and the guys at Arcade Mania have been nothing but helpful and professional in the build and delivery of my bartop and stand. They answered any questions I had pre, during and after build and delivery, I couldn’t ask for more.

The machine itself is top notch. If you’re of a certain ‘vintage’ and enjoy gaming, you will love what they do. I ordered a Double Dragon design retro pie machine and the finish / build quality is fantastic. The games play with no lag and look great on the screen (rather than blown up on a newer TV like the retro Mega Drive I bought). You can even customise the controls to work with the button layouts you remember.

If you’re thinking about it then stop and just do it. You won’t be dissapointed.

If you're looking for a custom made arcade machine you've come to the right place! Rod and all the team at Arcade Mania couldn't have been more helpful and have made me a fantastic machine! I contacted Rod as I wanted to ask if they could make a custom cabinet with an Out Run arcade theme as it's my all time favourite game. Rod and the team got straight on the case and what they came up with blew me away!! Amazing build, quality artwork and a stunning machine! I even ordered one of the new custom bases to sit the bartop on and the finished product just has the wow factor!! Already had hours of fun and feel like a kid again!! You can tell Rod and the team have a passion for what they do and that comes across with their second to none customer service and amazing arcade machines!! Order with confidence!!

I'm very happy with my arcade machine, the team have done an excellent job of it. There are a variety of customisation options from the design to the colours of the buttons and no lack of different options to choose from. The sound is great and you can adjust the treble and the bass as well (at least with the front mounted speakers you can). Very well built and over the moon so thanks again arcade mania team.

Fantastic company run by extremely professional and friendly guys.

I ordered a custom built bartop from the guys for £359 including delivery! Having done plenty of research regarding sourcing all the parts etc this was obviously an absolute bargain.

Approximately 2 weeks build time and I was notified via their Facebook page when the machine was finished, including pictures of it.

Sadly the unit was badly damaged by the couriers..this was in no way any fault of Arcade Mania, they had packed it more than sufficiently yet the couriers had sadly not taken the appropriate care with my machine despite all labelling stating it was Fragile.

I contacted Rod straight away and the matter was resolved with him instructing the couriers to collect the machine the next day.

Absolutely no issues with the customer service, Rod was clearly disgusted with the couriers and reassured me I would receive my unit as ordered without issue.
A couple more weeks build time was required as a completely new unit was needed.

Again I was notified at the dispatch stage and this unit arrived unscathed and in perfect condition.

My only gripe is I could only have a quick 5minute "test" as it's a Christmas present for my son!! But that quick test confirmed to me that the machine is solidly built, the controls are perfect and responsive and this is genuinely a true arcade in the home.

With 645 games to go at I doubt it's recipient will ever get bored!!

Arcade Mania get a fully deserved 5 stars from me, a truly excellent machine that is going to bring years of entertainment at a fantastic price. The build quality is top class and the customer service I received upon finding the first unit to be damaged was first rate.

Great machine, great customer service, great company. Highly recommended.

OMG... Carlos' Bartop Arcade Machine.
I've been waiting for as long as I can remember for an arcade machine.....
I worked hard and felt, that at long last I deserve one.
I had done extensive research before I laid out my hard earned cash. I even considered building one myself....it would cost at least £450+ to build and these guys are professional..with a small profit margin.
It was a no brainer!!!
Trust me when I say.... if you buy a machine from ARCADE MANIA you will Not be disappointed.
They Absolutely nailed it!!! UNREAL!!
All the guys are extremely helpful, friendly and professional.
The build quality is second to none.
They enjoy what they do.. and it shows damn it!!
Can't thank Rod and his team enough for building me the Arcade Machine of my dreams.
Thankyou guys...words are not enough.

I took delivery of one beautiful arcade machine that now sits proudly in my room. Every game that I can think off that I played in the arcades as a kid at Butlins is on it, and it brings back a lot of fond memories.
Rod and his small team have done an incredibly good job. The construction is solid. Just finished working a night shift, and now I'm off to play some Caveman Ninja lol
If you're thinking about getting an arcade machine from Rod, don't hesitate - just do it. You won't regret it.
Thanks, Rod.

I was thinking for a while about getting an arcade machine for my mancave and when I was over at a friends house he had recently purchased a double dragon themed table top version from arcademania. So I contacted the guys and they where so helpful and the toughest decision I had to make was choosing between the table top version or the mania board. In the end I went for the mania board as I felt it would be more flexible to move from the mancave into the house as and when the kids wanted to play with it. So happy with my purchase and the artwork is amazing and the hours of fun stumbling across old games you played when you where a kid. I'd also recommend paying the extra money and stretch to have the Retropie edition with the full set of games across multiple platform. You will be the envy of your friends.

Fantastic work on the machine really happy with it

Fantastic machine, thrilled with it and customer service brilliant

Thoroughly recommended!!

GREAT products, fast deliver and helpfull staff
