The Retro-Cade 4-Player Classic. Where timeless arcade nostalgia meets modern, American-built craftsmanship. This is the full-size, four-player centerpiece your game room has been waiting for: a massive 50" 4K screen, up to 100,000 games, and a cabinet built from premium birch plywood right here in the USA, customized to your exact taste before it ships. Designed for those who want the complete arcade experience without compromise, the 4-Player Classic brings the golden age of gaming to life for the whole family, or the whole crew. You can be running four-player co-op classics or going head-to-head on a trackball game, this cabinet delivers the kind of shared gaming moments that screens and controllers simply can't replicate. About Retro-Cade Retro-Cade has been crafting premium custom arcade cabinets since 2019, founded by Ed and Josh out of Airville, Pennsylvania. What sets them apart isn't just where they build, it's how they build. Every cabinet is CNC-cut and hand-assembled in-house using 9-ply 3/4" laminated birch plywood, a material choice that separates serious cabinet makers from the MDF crowd. Backed by partnerships with Arcade-One and a commitment to ongoing software support, Retro-Cade builds machines that grow with you. Owning one means owning something made with purpose, not mass-produced for a shelf. A Game Library That Never Runs Out The 4-Player Classic isn't just an arcade cabinet. It's a living game library. Paired with Retro-Cade's Arcade-One partnership, you can load your cabinet with 30,000, 70,000, or up to 100,000 games spanning every era of arcade and console gaming history. Custom game requests are accepted, and the library receives ongoing updates so your collection never gets stale. From side-scrolling beat-'em-ups built for four players to classic trackball titles and vintage fighting games, the depth here is genuinely staggering. This is the games room upgrade that keeps giving. Fully Assembled and Ready to Play Unlike flat-pack arcade builds that arrive as a weekend project, the 4-Player Classic ships fully assembled (split into two manageable sections for freight delivery) (top section approximately 120 lbs, total weight approximately 280 lbs), then reunited in your game room in minutes. No tools, no stress, no guesswork. It arrives as a cabinet. You plug it in and play. That fully assembled delivery is a genuine differentiator, and it reflects Retro-Cade's philosophy: your time is better spent gaming than assembling flat-pack furniture. Built from Real Birch. Not MDF The cabinet shell is constructed from 9-ply 3/4" laminated birch plywood. CNC-cut for precision and assembled entirely in-house in Airville, Pennsylvania. Birch plywood is denser, stronger, and more resistant to long-term wear than the MDF used in most competing cabinets. This is the kind of structural decision that separates a machine built to last a decade from one that looks good in photos. The result is a cabinet that feels as solid as it looks. It's a true piece of game room furniture that can take the punishment of years of enthusiastic play without flinching. A 50" 4K Screen Built for Four Players Four players need real screen real estate, and the 4-Player Classic delivers with a stunning 50" 4K Smart TV at the heart of the cabinet. That's significantly larger than the 32" 1080p display found in the 2-player model, and at four times the resolution, every pixel of your classic and modern titles looks sharp, vivid, and exactly as it should. The LED-backlit marquee above frames the display with that unmistakable arcade glow, setting the mood from the moment you walk into the room. Arcade-Authentic Controls for Every Player All four player positions are equipped with Sanwa joysticks (the same brand trusted by competitive arcade players worldwide) with 8-way to 4-way switching built in for full compatibility across game genres. A 3" trackball sits at the center of the control panel, ready for classic overhead games that demand it. Button and joystick colours are fully customizable, so your control panel looks exactly the way you want it to. Optional add-ons include an Ultimarc spinner ($150), light guns, and Xbox and Wii controller support, giving you the flexibility to expand your control setup as your game library grows. Sound That Fills the Room A pair of 4×6 speakers paired with a 5" subwoofer means this cabinet doesn't just look the part, it sounds it. The audio system is tuned to bring out the punchy, layered sound design of classic arcade titles while giving modern emulated games the low-end presence they deserve. When four players are deep into a co-op run, the sound system keeps pace without distortion, without tininess, and without compromise. Customized to You, Before It Ships The 4-Player Classic is built to order, and that means it arrives as your cabinet, not a generic box. Choose from 40+ UV-printed artwork themes (the same full art package available on the 2-player model), select your button co
