How to Return to the Main Menu on Your Arcade1Up Machine 🕹️

By Devil Dawg Tech


Hey arcade fam! 👋

We get this question ALL the time, so let's clear it up once and for all. If you're playing a game on your Arcade1Up machine and want to get back to the main game selection screen — here's the super simple trick!


Watch the Quick Tutorial


The Simple Solution ✅

Hold the Player 1 button for 5 seconds.

That's it! 🎉

The machine will reset back to the main game menu, and you're good to go. No complicated button combos. No unplugging anything. Just hold that Player 1 button and wait for the magic to happen.


Quick Recap

Step Action
1 While in any game, locate the Player 1 button
2 Press and hold for 5 seconds
3 Machine resets to the main game menu
4 Pick your next game and keep playing! 🎮

Why This Matters

If you've got a multi-game Arcade1Up cabinet, you're probably switching between classics all the time. Knowing this little trick saves you from fumbling around or — worst case — unplugging your machine just to switch games.

Now you can jump from Pac-Man to Galaga to Street Fighter without missing a beat! 💪
