ewer and older titles to spice things up. We're talking games like Raiden, Sega Rally, Metal Slug and The Simpsons. We're talking classics like Street Fighter, Mortal Kombat and Final Fight. We also are home to Brisbane's largest freeplay Pinball Collection. Check our website for a full list of our collection and visit us in Morningside from 12pm to 8pm Wednesday to Sunday!

From 5pm, we do declare it "Slappy Hours"!

It's actually our "3 HOURS OF POWER" where for $25 you play as much pinball & arcade as you can handle. But if you are a pinballer, the from 5pm it is indeed your Slappy Hours.

For something different as well, we are going to play nothing but Green Day. Why? Because Brooke & I bloody well feel like it. And we ain't starting with Dookie - we are going do it right at the beginning in 1991 with the 1,039/Smoothed out Slappy Hours followed by Kerplunk. - RJK

ARCADE WARS UPDATE!!!!

Just when you thought it was safe to play video games ,Jim Patzer rode in on his Unicorn and splattered rainbows EVERYWHERE! Literally everywhere, with a unimaginable score of 4.9 MILLION!

There are only a handful of players in the world that can continually put up World Record level scores, irrelevant of the game & Jim Patzer is definitely one of those guys. Pleasure to have his talents every month for Arcade Wars.

As the standings lie on the current months scores, this would push The Garcade & Galloping Ghost Arcade EQUAL into 2ND place for the year on 25pts, with Underground Retrocade in 4th on 23pts.

To confirm in the event of 2 arcades being level on points, we will be performing a SUDDEN DEATH ROUND over 1 single week to decide the Superior team . This will be on a game that has already featured in Arcade Wars, but not in 2023👀

ARCADE WARS UPDATE!!!

We are through the looking glass people. After 12 months of brutal play that has seen massive Bomb's Jackin off, R-Typing fury, head's being Choplifter'd off & endless Dig Skull-Duggery we find ourselves on the final battle arena.... it's time for one last
apocalyptic, cataclysmic encounter in the menacing world of.....
RAINBOW ISLANDS??!?!

Only in Arcade Wars can the conclusion of 12 months of war be settled in a sickening cute world full of delicious fruit, cutesy characters & so many rainbows it makes Pride week look overcast.

1UP Arcade Australia has the top spot for the year all but wrapped up due to a strong start to the season that saw them take our 3 of the first 4 W's. Since that time, the competition has heated up thanks to strong performances from our USA Arcades, who face off in battle for the honour of Top of US of A.

Galloping Ghost Arcade Underground Retrocade & The Garcade are locked in a mouthwatering battle. Based on the current scores, we would see The Garcade winning the month drawing level on points with Underground Retrocade for 2nd spot, meaning Galloping Ghost Arcade would slip to 4th for both the month & year.

Still plenty of Rainbows to be thrown though. So much fruit to be eaten. Who will take the #1 USA spot for 2023??

Our Story

1UP Arcade opened its doors on May 13, 2017 with nearly 60 freeplay titles and expanded past 100 games before the end of that year. With a huge selection of fighters and a growing collection of action games, shooters and racing titles on offer, there's no better value for money than spending all day reliving your childhood favourites.

We tirelessly focus on the best arcade games from the 80’s and 90's era, with some newer and older titles to spice things up. We're talking games like Daytona, Raiden, Sega Rally, Metal Slug, The Simpsons, Out Run, NBA Jam, Shinobi, Wonder Boy, Street Fighter, Mortal Kombat and Final Fight, just to name a few.

December 2017 saw our first major expansion, with the introduction of Brisbane’s largest selection of pinballs, and the opening of our retro console lounge.

As we approach our 2nd birthday this May 2019, the arcade now features over 170 original arcade games to play, and 33 pinballs!
