The Arcade1Up Head 2 Head Gaming Table is a compact piece of arcade furniture that will allow two players to go head-to-head in a unit that's compact enough to fit into almost any living or working space.

The [cocktail table-inspired gaming system](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tiburon-tables) features a 17-inch full-color LCD in the middle section that will allow each player to participate in the action with accuracy. An array of classic 80s and 90s video game titles can be accessed through the table to let players spend a virtually endless amount of time partaking in pastimes of yesteryear.

The Arcade1Up Head 2 Head Gaming Table comes in two model choices including Street Fighter and Pac-Man, and is priced at $499. Each unit weighs in at just 65 pounds to make them more moveable than [conventional arcade cabinets](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/skeeball-arcade-games).
