the arcade1up are some weird android boards. You have to replace it with your own pc/device.

That's a good idea, but let's be honest, it's not the same. LOL

My wife knows I'm an arcade junkie. The year we got married (9 years ago this past Feb 28th) we went to Las Vegas for our honeymoon. I found out they had the Pinball Hall of Fame a couple miles off of the Strip, so I asked her if I could have $10 in quarters to go there.

*3 hours later*

"WHERE THE *expletive* ARE YOU!? I'm starving and want to go get food! Are you coming back to the room?!?"

"Umm...I still have $5 left from my $10, and I was just going to play it ou-"

"WHAT?! No. Get back here NOW. It's not too late to annul the marriage, you know!"

That said, if I made an arcade system so she could play Tetris on it, she'd probably ok it, but then I would NEVER get the cabinet back from her to play. LOL
Haha, I'm not exactly an arcade enthusiast these days, but I recently had a blast in downtown Las Vegas at "The D" casino, where I found myself happily plunking quarters into the vintage Sigma Horseracing Game. It was a fantastic time filled with lots of laughter and enjoyment.
