About 10-15 years before "Rogue One"/"A New Hope"
on August 12, 2018
Posted by: 93Vet
from Norwalk, Ca.
Long time SW fan here since the very beginning, May 25, 1977.
I found the movie enjoyable. The characters and what was going on was believable. Action and pace were good throughout the movie. The timeline for this one is 10-15 years before the events of Rogue One/A New Hope. The Empire was trying to reign in control over the Galaxy, with factions of "rebels" and "crime syndicates" appearing all over the place. There were 20 years between "Revenge of the Sith" and "A New Hope", so there is so much that can be told and seen in that timeframe. I am eager to see more of Han Solo and Chewbacca where they first come into contact with Jabba The Hutt.

The hype was about the characters in the movie and their lives when they find out what's going to happen to them. That's the movie.

~ No Blu-ray copy of the movie itself...
May 31, 2023
I can agree with you to a certain extent. Maybe they were not specific enough in the listing details as they should have been. Since these movies have been out for years now, most of them on Blu-ray, this set is a limited steelbook 4K UHD edition for the movies, and a special features disc for the extra content.
Yes, the listing does not say that. There are no Digital copies here in the listing either on Best Buy.

Arrow already did a HD Blu-ray version of this prior. Same slipcover design, only that one was a better slipcover with a graphic sheen to it.
This 4K edition only has a booklet included on the movie. They did the same thing for FLATLINERS and AMERICAN WEREWOLF IN LONDON.

Extremely mediocre SteelBook. It's utterly bare-bones. Nothing on the inside, nothing on the back-cover.

What steelbook do you own? The one pictured is the one I own and there is most certainly inside artwork and on back. The disc itself is blue colored. They are not putting out another one just for a 4K edition. Disc only with the typical black holder.

Not steelbook
By EndOfLife
I would have to agree with the fact that this not being a steelbook especially at this price tag is very disappointing im sure at some point there will be a complete set. My uncle bought this completely regretting it.

Absolutely love the movie. It gets 5 stars. But the plastic slip cover is completely warped and ruined. The best looking steelbook so far this year and it's damaged. Disappointing to say the least.

Hey, thanks for the info. on the damaged steel slipcover, it looks like this is more than just you it is happening to.
I somewhat disagree with your comment as far as best looking steelbook so far this year. 1996's Ghost In The Shell gets my vote. I do believe that came out this year, 2023. If not, I stand corrected. The artwork on that is just superior in all directions.

Audio Downgrade….

Not sure who made the decision to downgrade the audio from 7.1 (which has been on all previous releases) to 5.1 but geez, really?!?
Awful, just awful. My copy will be returned at first opportunity. Super disappointing.

Retrogaming fans and pop-culture enthusiasts have been clamoring for it, and here it is courtesy of Arcade1Up: the Atari Legacy CENTIPEDE Edition home arcade machine, for the first time in a form factor shaped just like the original classic arcade cabinet!
 

There are misleading images of this unit's screen size when showing Centipede. The game is a vertical game as it should be. However, there are photos of it being squashed or horizontal. Which is it?

Evolving from its 1958 beginnings as an amusement game manufacturer, Midway produced some of the hottest arcade games of the 80s and 90s, that have since been adapted into film, television, and much more.Their monsters-wreaking-havoc title Rampage~was a giant early hit, and then leaps in live action digitizing technology led to Mortal Kombat~, recognized as one of the most important titles in video game history. With it~s over the top darkly humorous gameplay and finishing moves, Mortal Kombat~became an instant franchise with iconic characters and enduring catch phrases.
 

So, what's the actual date of release now? Arcade 1up had it in March and Best Buy says Dec. 31, 2021. lol There are many of us eagerly awaiting to get this unit when Arcade 1up SAYS and sends an email stating it is READY for Preorder.

Yes, this is the SPECIAL EDITION version, NOT the Walmart version. Hence the price difference. Custom CHAIR and LIGHT UP DECK play area are part of this version.

Can junior pacman be added?

I don't think so on this unit. It is unfortunate because it would make it the most complete PAC MAN unit for sale this size. The unit does not have a USB port or says smart capable. It has the other 6 PAC MAN games, plus GALAGA.

Can centipede be added

No, it doesn't look like it on this unit. This does not have a USB port or smart capability. It's mostly a PAC MAN anniversary edition with GALAGA added for a total of 7.
It does not even have a trackball, which would be needed for CENTIPEDE. It is virtually impossible to play that with a joystick. I know, I have it on a tabletop with no trackball.
