25:20 mark 17 inch lite star monitor on the new centipede cabinet. Appears that we're looking at the same quality as Golden Tee XL and Shaq NBA Jam...

Uh oh...
Time crisis and Blitz deserve better.
Hard pass.
PASS!!
Any idea what the pacmania / dig dug monitor is?
Probably trash
These are all part of a new gen of cabs so they are all almost certainly going to be the same.
I wish sed tvs were a thing they would be so cool in these
Although I have no particular interest in it, how about people wait until it's released before rendering a judgment??
Because then people buy it and instantly regret spending their hard-earned money. This is doing the community a favor… a lesson learned after years of dealing with this company’s shady cost-cutting, unfortunately.
Well said.
It's released. The photo is from someone who bought it.
As others have said, these are already arriving for people that bought them in Canada. The major concern here is that these panels aren't something new that they can claim they didn't realize weren't good enough. These are the same series and likely model numbers of panels that were in the Gen 1 and 2 cabs that people complained about and Arcade1up and moved up to better panels in the Gen 3 and up cabs.
It's possible for most people to understand when a company go to something new and realize that it's not good enough afterwards. It's less acceptable but at least remotely understandable (for some) when a new product like the 19 inch panel in the XL comes from the same series that you knew wasn't good enough as there may be less options out there for them to source the numbers they needed (mayb) and as anyone familiar with panels knows, sometimes panels in the same series but different models can be better than others. But to go back to the same make and model of the 17 inch panels (which it's looking like they did) that you used before that they know are not good enough is really hard for anyone to accept.
Did we expect anything less from this penny pinching company?
Trash company. There I said it.
Oh man. Making me nervous for Dragon’s Lair. Damn.
If I get a Dragon's Lair it will be the iiRcade version. So much better.
Edit: Best Buy has the Retromania Wrestling iiRcade cabinet bundle on sale for $400, which you could purchase and download the Dragon's Lair and Space Ace games onto. Better controls, bigger monitor and better sound.
“Did we expect anything less from this penny pinching company?”
No, sadly, we did not.
