Arcade Cabinet Dimensions: A Real Size Guide Before You Buy

Arcade Cabinet Dimensions: A Real Size Guide Before You Buy

Full-size arcade cabinet with dimension reference

Before wrap designs or game libraries, the question that actually decides whether an order goes through is simple: will it fit? Here's a real, straightforward size reference across every format we build.

Full-Size Upright Cabinets

The classic tall format — authentic arcade feel, the most floor space required. A standard full-size upright runs approximately 70"H × 23.5"W × 30"D. Measure the exact footprint against your space before ordering, especially doorways and hallways it needs to pass through on delivery day.

Hexacade™ (Oversized 4-Player Cabinet)

Built wider specifically for 4-player use, so it runs larger than a standard upright: approximately 71"H × 41.25"W × 23"D, with a 43" screen — larger than the 32" screen on our other cabinet lines.

Wall-Mounted Cabinets

No base, no floor footprint — mounts directly to the wall at roughly the footprint of a large framed picture. The best option when floor space is the real constraint but wall space isn't.

Pedestal Cabinets

A compact, table-height format with no wide side panels — smaller footprint than a full upright while still reading as real furniture, not a tabletop unit.

Tabletop Cabinets

The smallest commitment — sits on a counter, bar, or table with no dedicated floor or wall space required at all.

How to Actually Measure Before Ordering

  • Measure the intended spot, not just "the room looks big enough" — floor and wall space get eaten up by furniture faster than expected
  • Check doorway and hallway widths the cabinet needs to pass through on delivery, not just the final spot
  • For wall-mounted units, confirm the wall itself can support the mounting hardware
  • Leave a few inches of buffer around any format — exact-fit measurements leave no margin for delivery day

Frequently Asked Questions

What's the smallest format available?
A tabletop cabinet is the smallest commitment — it sits on any existing counter, bar, or table with no dedicated space required.

Does a bigger cabinet mean a bigger game library?
No — every format runs on the same multicade foundation, so cabinet size affects footprint and player count, not how many games are available.

Why is the Hexacade™ a different size than the other cabinets?
It's built wider specifically to fit a 4-player control deck comfortably, and pairs that with a larger 43" screen — both intentional for its role as a party-sized centerpiece rather than a space-saving option.
