A very easy way to get everything up and working!
I’m using this kit on an arcade machine I built by upgrading the Arcade1up Simpsons cabinet. I’m running Retrobat in windows. The only issue I had with software was that all four USB devices show up as the same in RetroBat. I had to use some separate software to setup each USB encoder separately. But it’s all working smoothly now.The quality of the buttons is excellent, and the lights are bright. I wish there were a way to turn off the lights. I don’t want them on all the time, especially at night. For now, I keep all four USB encoders plugged into a USB hub with individual switches so I can turn them off. (I suppose I could disable the lights by cutting a wire, but that’s permanent.)The joysticks are OK. I think they’ll hold up just fine for my usage, but if my cabinet were in a public place, I think they’d be destroyed in a few weeks.Wiring was super-duper easy, and plug and play. I just secured the USB encoders to the base of the cabinet board with gorilla double-sided tape.

Arcade1up nbajam raspberry pi mod
After watching a bunch of YouTube videos on how to mod an Arcade1up I waited for an NBA Jam to go on clearance for $225. The led buttons are beautiful when lit up and responsiveness/quality seems the same or better than the original. I drilled all the extra holes in the control deck with a 1 1/8 forestner bit. Every button worked perfect. I was shorted two of the 4 usb a to b cables but I had access to extra cables so no problem there. I do wish the plug-in cables were 4 inches longer to better position the controllers. Also would have been nice to include the pcb risers/feet to properly secure the 4 controllers to the deck. Raspberry pie had no problem configuring the controllers either. Certain games like to automatically choose what buttons/joystick is player 1,2,3 or 4. That part is kinda annoying. Not sure why just yet and if it is fixable. Great quality would not hesitate to buy again.

great price for arcade controls
I bought these for an arcade I am building. Installing was a breeze and I hooked it up to a Rasp Pi. It works great. The only thing I don’t like is that the joystick top part kind of twists off when gaming – I think that might be due to us mashing buttons though. It is solid construction and the inputs work great.

Great product. Works well
Arrived on time, OK quality but good for the price. Happy

Great for DIY arcade cabinet
If this your first time building a arcade cabinet like myself just make sure all your buttions and sticks are configured exactly identical and take very close notice of your usb ports on your motherboad and front panels to make sure they are in the correct order for player 1 through player 4. It can be fustrating trying to put them in the order they should be according to 4 player cabinets. I manually had to use a piece of tape and label each usb port to get them in the right order. Also these work with Steam PC as generic controllers, but again some of my Steam games that support 4 players are not in order either, but that is an issue with Steam not this kit. Mame works flawlessly no issues with what order they read in.

Easy to use, great value
From the perspective of a first time MAME builder/user, these were great. It came with one non-functional blue button, but I still had enough for my project (maybe others I haven’t tested them all as I don’t need so many buttons – or at least I don’t think I do).The joysticks are indeed clicky. Though you mostly ignore that while playing especially with game volume. Though if you think you’re going to be annoyed by it, you probably will be because you’ll be listening for it. I think it’s tolerable, but it is present. If you put into a cabinet with loud enough, directed, game sounds you’re probably not going to notice. Otherwise you will, but I think it is ignorable for the most part (especially if you know…you’re focused on a game). I have very good hearing.The hook up was easy and using it with Lakka/Retroarch was fairly easy. I was new to it, but if you’re not it’s likely an immediately working thing. It is plug and play for sure.One thing I wish they would have included would be screws. I know they don’t know the method by which you’ll mount the joysticks or the thickness of material you’ll use, but a few short screws wouldn’t hurt.

New encoders do not work with Raspberry Pi as advertised
I make and sell arcade cabinets and have been using EG Starts kits for about 2 years now and have bought dozens of sets. Up until recently I had nothing but good things to say about them. They are easy to install and configure, and on the rare occasion I received a bad button I would simply message them and they were quick to send me a replacement. However, recently they have swapped out the USB encoders and I have had consistent issues with them. The Raspberry Pi will not boot into RetroPie if the new encoders are attached, it will crash every time. I can take a working system with the old encoders attached and do nothing but swap the encoder and can reproduce the issue consistently. I have reached out to EG Starts and where I usually get a quick response and resolution now I am getting the run around. First I was told that they were aware that there were compatibility issues with Raspberry Pi and that they would send new encoders. When no encoders came I reached back out and was told that they would work with Raspberry Pi and that I needed to use RetroPie, which I am and have told them as much multiple times. I am growing very frustrated am going to have to start looking elsewhere for my kits which is very unfortunate. DO NOT PURCHASE FOR RASPBERRY PI USE until they resolve this issue.

Joysticks don’t hold up – buttons aren’t great
I love the all in one package. Everything you need to update your arcade1up. I have a Simpsons cabinet and i bought this as I was expanding my cabinet to include more buttons. After a few weeks of light playing, the joysticks are loose and are not very accurate when playing games like pacman or burgertime that require precise movements. The best part about this package is the coin button and the player buttons and zerodelay usb encoders. I am now, just a few weeks after purchasing this, looking to upgrade these joysticks. I am considering going back to the original arcade1up joysticks as they just feel better than these. Nice overall packaged bundle, but honestly, you’re better off purchasing something else as the joysticks are just not good.

got these for my arcade cabinet, and they work amazing! the joy sticks feel great, but could be a little longer. And the buttons feel really good for this price point! but if you all about the feel of the button then buy them separately! this is amazing for someone who has a PI and wants to make a cheap mullite player arcade cabinet.

Very well packaged, good quality with instructions easy to follow and shipped very quicky. Used them in my arcade 1up teenage mutant ninja turtles cabinet. Look great.

The buttons get stuck down. Any slight force from the wires on the buttons will result in binding. Because of this I would not recommend these for anyone, even for a cheap project.The LED lighting looks pretty nice.The encoders support direct input only, no xinput, which means you can use them for most emulators, but lots of more modern games won’t work on windows 10. For MAME or most emulators, the encoders are functional, but getting the player order correct requires unplugging them all and plugging them back in for windows 10. With raspberry pi I don’t think this would be an issue.The joysticks seem fine and come with a square 8 way restrictor plate.
