Well...what an interesting situation...

First piece of context:  Back in 2020, I struggled to get my hands on a Centipede arcade1up cabinet for my man-cave.  I finally got a Centipede 4-in-1 Partycade, but then something went horribly wrong:  the screen went completely white every time I turned it on, and stayed that way.  Couldn't play any of the games on it!  So I contacted the arcade1up support team, and they gave me a replacement.

Second piece of context:  Realizing that buying arcade1up cabinets one at a time wasn't the most economical way of getting games in my man-cave, I decided to invest in an AtGames Legends Ultimate Arcade, which has 300 games on it.  As it happens, said Legends Ultimate Arcade has all four of the games that the Centipede 4-in-1 Partycade has on it, and it's currently on its way.

Third piece of context:  I just discovered my Centipede 4-in-1 Partycade once again had the white screen of death.  And I'm not sure it's still under warranty; it may or may not be.  I'll find out soon; I've contacted the arcade1up support team again.

So...all-in-all, an interesting situation:  do I ask for a refund?  Do I ask for a replacement when I'm already going to get all the games that're on that Partycade, and then some?  Do they even HAVE any replacements?  Is it even under warranty?  It'll be a close call if it is.

I'm not even sure what I feel about this.  If it's not under warranty anymore, then there's nothing to be done---unless it's something as simple that I can fix myself, like some wires not being connected or something.  In which case I might as well crack it open, since I'll have nothing to lose by attempting to fix it.
