Picade Max Beta or Pre-Order
Beta Unit
If you purchased one of the first 50 beta units from Pimorni, you have a Beta unit. There are small differences between the Beta unit and the Final production unit. One of the biggest differences is that the marquee area is smaller, so you will see more overhang from the sides at the bottom of the marquee.
Pre-Order
If you recently purchased or Pre-Ordered the Picade Max cabinet you will see less overhang on the bottom.
What is a Frontend Emulator?
A frontend emulator is a program that allows users to browse and launch games from a single location and often supports multiple emulators.
Some examples are Batocera, Recal Box, RetroPie, and Windows OS.
Returns and Exchanges

Reviews
Fitment was very easy. Literally remove 5x screws (to remove the H & G panels) and the new Pixelcade marquee setup just slides into place. Other than that, just connecting the stand-off table with the Pixelcade driverboard to the base of the PicadeMax (holes are already in place). As for setting up the RPi5 to install the Pixelcade pkg and connect to the image repository, that was again very quick and straight forward… despite being my first time SSH into my RPi5. A MUST HAVE FOR PICADE MAX!!
if youre getting a picade max then do yourself a favour and get one of these, i actually had a pixelcade unit ordered as soon as i seen videos of this in action, when got my picade max after builing it , quickly and easily swapped out the marquee for this and software was a breeze to set up, looks amazing and easily customizable, got this working on a pi5 with batocera but also tried and worked on a mini pc connected with batocera, but you can get to run on a variety of backend software
Sure, here's a review for the Pixelcade for Picade Max:
Pixelcade for Picade Max is an exceptional addition to your gaming setup! The hardware installation was a breeze, thanks to the comprehensive documentation and included components. The software setup (for Recalbox) was just as simple – a quick copy and paste of a command, and the install script handled everything smoothly. Highly recommended for any arcade enthusiast seeking an effortless upgrade!
Cant recommend enough.
