  • Amazon’s Prime Big Deal day offers are live now.
  • A Star Wars arcade machine with three throwback games is on offer. 
  • The games are from the 1980s and you can enjoy them at home. 

The force is with Amazon Prime customers this week as the price on a classic Star Wars arcade machine has been slashed. The eye-catching Prime Big Deal offer is only available for a few hours more and fans will not want to miss out on this throwback retro experience.

The Arcade1Up machine has had its price cut once again, following savings in the summer Gaming Week deals. Fans have until midnight tonight (October 9) to claim the deal - which slashes hundreds of pounds off the price tag.

If you are into Star Wars or retro gaming this is a deal you will not want to let slip through your fingers again. Amazon is knocking 30% off the price tag, a saving of more than £200, but you have to be quick because it is a limited time offer.

Relive the star wars with the Star Wars flight deck and have fun at home or in the office with friends and colleagues. Fly aboard the X-Wing and take on the Imperial TIEs. Play Star Wars, Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Back, Star Wars: Return of the Jedi. May the Force be with you! 

It comes with a 17 inch screen and dual speakers. There is also a light-up marquee and there is a riser included. 

One Amazon shopper, R.G. wrote: “Many years ago, I became the owner of a Bespoke Arcades cocktail cabinet - which was great for many games, but not those with specialist controllers, like track-balls, wheels and the like. So, many of my faves were catered for, but not Star Wars from 1983 - until now...

“Yes, it's a bit pricey compared to other cabinets with more games on them (blame Disney/Lucasfilm I guess for the licence fee) but this is a brilliant, modern compromise if you lusted after an original stand-up or sit-down cabinet after playing the 1983 original.” 

The three games included in the cabinet are Star Wars, Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Back and Star Wars: Return of the Jedi. And it has a flight cloche with 4 firing triggers.
