SMASH IT UP! Video Contest

Contest Extended Until May 31st

Arcade-in-a-Box Smash It Up Contest!

Arcade-in-a-Box will be holding a contest and will be giving away a complete Arcade-in-a-Box solo console arcade controller to the winner. More prizes will be added as the contest progresses. New sponsors and prizes will be added to this post including other prizes for Arcade-in-a-Box, Gameroom magazine and more.

For the contest we are asking contestants to enter videos showing them destroying gamepads in the most creative ways possible. We just ask that you be safe, be smart, and don’t injure yourself in the process.

The contest will last until the end of May, at which time our panel of judges will pick the top 10 videos. Once those videos are selected, there will be a website created where users can vote on their favorite video by DIGGing them. The winners will be determined by the amount of DIGGs each video gets.

We have a youtube group created for you to upload your videos.

Must be a United States Resident

Arcade Stands Coming Soon.

There has been a small delay in the manufacturing of our stands.  We hope to have them available in the next 2-3 weeks.

We are proud to announce 2 new stands for our systems coming in April. The first stand is designed for the Arcade-in-a-Box system, and the second will fit the Jamma and Neo-Geo systems. The stands will come in black with your choice of t-molding color and will probably retail for $99 plus shipping. The stands will come flat shipped, and easy to assemble with just a screwdriver. These stands are sturdy, and will not move with the most aggressive players. The stand features one shelf in middle for storage and an open back design to allow a seperate stand for your proejector or audio equipment. As always, we can custom make stands if you already have an arcade controller you want to use, just send us the dimensions, and we can give you a quote.

Congratulations to University of Florida Gators!

Arcade-In-A-Box presents this custom home arcade piece featuring the University of Florida colors.

For fans of other schools, Arcade-In-A-Box can create color themes matching their schools too, as well as provide decals that can be attached to the units for the ultimate college sports fan.
