Thanks for the video @In_The_Woods, and even more thanks for being a Kickstarter! Sorry we're late to the party here, I wish we would have had the time to do one of these ourselves back when our v1 machines shipped. We learned A LOT with our first version of the Polycade, and you call out a number of the areas that we cleaned up in v2, and then further refined in v3: - We changed the monitor after the v1 units, and now use a BenQ monitor with a 1ms response time. It's not the best monitor money can buy (that would increase our end price by a lot), but it's fast, looks good, and reliable. This is of course unfortunate for the v1 units out there, but then, the v1 units cost about $1700 less than the units we ship today. - Stapling the cables to the cabinet was a big mistake in the v1 machines. Our v2 and v3 machines are constructed entirely out of sheet steel, so this is not even possible anymore. - A lot of the v1 units had additional devices like the Spinner on the machine shown in this video. This took our usb count on the control panel over 4 ports, which then requires the powered usb hub. v2 and v3 units consolidated the control panel devices and no longer need the powered usb hub.

was going to write some disappointing comment until I saw this. Any company that can admit to its failures in early releases and responds with appropriate actions is good in my books.

Upload some more videos of your machine. :) Fun to see a real video and not just their own marketing videos.

From first impressions, this seems like a kind of faulty piece of equipment-- but it might just be because of its sheer size. With some tweaking, it could probably be a really cool unit and work perfectly. Are these hand-made by any chance?

Hi, I recently purchased a used Polycade, it’s the wood version just like yours. Unfortunately it’s missing the wall mount part. I was wondering if you could share the instructions that came with it or explain how it mounts to the frame?

Unfortunately I do not have any of the specs of the mount. The people at Polycade would probably be nice enough to provide you the specs tho. Here is a very basic picture of it i.postimg.cc/wvXnwwwH/th.jpg. The top of the wall mounted bracket has a Lip on it that the polycade sits on.

In_The_Woods thank you. Does it hang only from the top cross piece with the vents or also from the middle cross piece?

@@BarcadeArcade It only connects to the Mount at the top. The middle bar on the back of the polycade is for internal structure only it appears.

I got mine from them via the Kickstarter fundraiser. At that time they offered a steam-link (amzn.to/2PNQTkS) version for a lesser cost. As you know, with steam-link, you need your own PC to stream from. However they did include a list of steam keys that they curated. Games that play well with arcade controls. I believe they have retired the steamlink option, so now when purchasing a unit you choose a PC configuration that will come installed in the cabinet. I have also added a PC to my unit and no longer use the steam-link. I just upgraded it to a 1070 GTX card so I can also use it as my VIVE Virtual Reality (amzn.to/2NT5w4v) PC since I have the polycade mounted near my VR space.

Making crap products must run in the family. What a complete joke and Tyler Bushnell should be ashamed of himself. I've seen better cabinets on r/crapmame
