MY MODDED Arcade1Up ASTEROIDS DELUXE Machine
This is MY first Arcade1Up cabinet that's 100% complete.
It only has the original 6 games on it but for the control panel layout I am fine with that.
First thin to go was the factory spinner, I order a Thunder Stick the day I assembled the cabinet
Then I replaced the Title Board with new kick panel graphics from Arcade Graphix
The control panel was too tight, so I designed my own and had ArcadeModUp print it for me and then I applied it to a control panel blank from DIY Retro Arcade. The new layout works well for me and IMO looks cleaner then the factory panel
This is the back side of the control panel I moved the speaker and the power switch to the top "H" panel but mounted the volume control to the bottom. I leave it on medium so no need to get to make it accessible
I replaced the original marquee with and illuminated version from ArcadeModUp
Then I installed 2 speakers and a power switch to the H panel (top Panel) with the LED strip for the marquee
Here's a look at the very spartan interior and how it looks with the back installed to show how it interfaces with my Power Panel mod, without that black power panel, getting in and out of the cabinet is a PITA
This wasn’t as much work as my other cabinets but it was time consuming waiting for all the different parts to show up.
Now onto to finishing My Centipede machine that's has a 60-in-1 Jamma Board

My Custom 12-in-1 Centipede Cabinet
…………………………….………………...
I converted my AIU factory Centipede machine into a custom 12-in-1 using a 60-in-1 Jamma Board from DIY Retro Arcade
DIY Retro Arcade made a custom control panel that I designed and I bought Kick Panel graphics from Arcade Graphix
The illuminated Marquee is from The Arcade Game Factory but I replaced the black angles and the LED Light strip with parts from ArcadeModUp so it would match the rest of my games.
This has my standard H Panel mods - 2 Speakers , Power / Test / Service Switches and the LED strip for the marquee.
I choose to use this one as a dedicated Vertical 8-way Joystick / Trackball machine and it has the following games from the 60-in-1 enabled:
GALAGA 3 / 1942 / CENTIPEDE / MILLIPEDE / TIME PILOT / JUNO FIRST / SUPER COBRA / XEVIOUS / SCRAMBLE / BOMB JACK / 1943 / GUN SMOKE
It’s a basic mod but fills a spot in our arcade.
Now I can work on my custom Defender 12-in-1
