Arcade1Up Releasing X-Men and More Cabinets | Game Rant

Old-school arcades are mostly gone, but the arcade cabinet still holds a special place in the hearts of many. For those wishing to recapture a little piece of the early 90s, Arcade1Up has announced its line of arcade cabinets will soon include X-Men.

The line-up of upcoming cabinets announced at CES 2021 and listed on Arcade1Up’s website include classics like X-Men, Dragon’s Lair, Killer Instinct, and more. Also on the way are a new line of “Legacy Edition Arcade Cabinets” that will showcase some of the best games from Atari, Bandai Namco, and Capcom.

The X-Men arcade cabinet features side-scrolling action for up to four players, just like the original 1992 release. The cabinet will also include two more Marvel beat ‘em ups: Captain America and The Avengers, and Avengers in Galactic Storm, the latter of which should be particularly exciting for collectors given the game’s rarity. The cabinet for Dragon’s Lair, Don Bluth’s infamously unforgiving arcade adventure game, includes Dragons Lair 2 and its spiritual successor Space Ace. Lastly, the 3D fighting game Killer Instinct comes bundled with Killer Instinct 2 and Battletoads Arcade.

Meanwhile, the Legacy Arcade Cabinets will each feature twelve games from Atari, Bandai Namco, and Capcom respectively. These cabinets are modeled after the original arcade cabinet for a well-regarded game from each company: Atari’s 1981 shooter Tempest, Capcom’s Street Fighter 2 from 1987, and Bandai Namco’s legendary Pac Man from 1980.

Along with Tempest, the Atari cabinet will include classics like Asteroids, Centipede, and Missile Command. Meanwhile, the Bandai Namco cabinet will feature several early Pac-Man titles as well as Galaga, Galaxian, the first two Dig Dug games, and more. Finally, the Capcom cabinet includes the original Street Fighter and the Street Fighter 2 sub-series, along with Darkstalkers, Final Fight, and Ghosts ‘n Goblins, among others.

In addition to these arcade cabinets, Arcade1Up also announced its first pub-style game table at CES. The table features eight of Atari’s two- and four-player games, including Pong and its sequels as well as Tempest, Warlords, and Super Breakout.

Last year was busy for Arcade1Up, with the release of NBA Jam, Marvel vs. Capcom, and Ms. Packman. Even as the last arcade holdouts are shutting down around the world, Arcade1Up’s products continue to keep their spirits alive. It seems that 2021 will be just as exciting with this new wave of releases, even if similar cabinets from the same company run anywhere from $300 to $600. Although Arcade1Up has yet to confirm the price of its upcoming releases, nostalgia certainly seems to sell for a premium.

The Arcade1Up X-Men, Dragon’s Lair, Final Fight, and Legacy Arcade cabinets are in development.
