👤 Who are you?
I’m an electronic engineer and lifelong arcade enthusiast. Since 1985, I’ve been designing, restoring, and handcrafting arcade systems including JAMMA, NEO-GEO, CAPCOM, SEGA, and MAME platforms. I started building compact arcade machines in a small UK workshop — that’s how Tiny Arcade got its name.
⚙️ What do you build?
For nearly four decades, I’ve been designing and handcrafting high-quality custom arcade machines — including compact mini formats and larger cabinet builds. Each machine is engineered to preserve the authentic arcade feel while fitting modern homes and spaces.
✨ What makes Tiny Arcade Machines unique?
I work as an independent maker with nearly four decades of experience in electronics, arcade systems, retro gaming, and woodworking. I take on one project at a time, giving each build my full attention — from design to final polish. Every machine is handcrafted, built with premium materials and reliable hardware, and personally tested before shipping.
🛠️ Where are the machines built?
Every machine is founded in the UK and handcrafted in Spain, where I now live and work. My workshop is fully equipped for woodworking, electronics, and finishing. Each system is thoroughly tested and securely packed for worldwide delivery.
🕹️ What types of arcade machines do you offer?
- Two-player bartop arcades (horizontal) — powered by modern PC, JAMMA, or Raspberry Pi systems.
- Single-player vertical or horizontal cabinets — compact and customizable builds.
- Hyperspin TV consoles — high-performance systems for 4K televisions.
- Cocktail tables — classic sit-down arcade machines powered by JAMMA.
- Mini replicas — compact one-player builds inspired by classic arcade titles.
All systems are plug-and-play, easy to update, and built with precision and care.
🌍 Do you ship worldwide?
Yes. I carefully pack and ship every custom arcade machine worldwide from my workshop in Spain. Each unit is fully tested, protected with custom packaging, and shipped with tracking and insurance.
⏱️ How long does it take to build a machine?
Each machine is handcrafted to order, so build time depends on the model and current queue. On average, it takes 3–6 weeks from order confirmation to completion.
🧾 What’s covered by the warranty?
All machines include a 5-year hardware warranty and lifetime technical support.
If you ever have a problem, I’ll personally help you resolve it — even long after delivery.
