Arcade 1Up announces arcade cabinets for Marvel Super Heroes/X-Men: Children of the Atom/The Punisher & TMNT (1989)/Turtles in Time
- Thread starter Neoxon
- Start date
so Capcom is willing to pay for the licenses to get AvP and Punisher rereleased... but not on PC or consoles? Okay

I'd imagine that Arcade 1Up will eventually do a cabinet for the first two Marvel vs. Capcom games & the crossovers that preceded it (I.E. MvC1, MvC2, XvSF, & MvSF).
I will probably pick up that Turtles one. Finding the original arcade machine in good condition can reach up to $2k.

Like I said, that's probably gonna get saved for a dedicated Marvel vs. Capcom cabinet in the future. The one we have now is for the Marvel-only Capcom games.
the licensing is probably not as expensive because they fall under DIFFERENT licensing.
X-Men: Children of the Atom is the best marvel capcom game imo. Wish I had room for one.
How does it work. Licensed roms running on MAME, or do they source original boards?
Do the LCD panels have a good response time?

That's like four different Capcom licensed games released on non-console hardware this year, five if you count Strider.
If it had XvS over CotA, that'd be super tempting.
But then where would the cab go?

Man, these both seem cool. Price is a bit steeper on the Turtles one, but I guess licensing costs and engineering their first four player layout probably have something to do with it.
For posterity, I feel like I need to own damn near all of these.
Common sense, overrides. Maybe when I get a larger place and can dedicate a whole room to stuff like this.

This is very sweet news!
I don't know, though if companies like Capcom & Konami can have Arcade 1up do these, then they should be able to give us a collection of these games both physically & digitally on Switch, Xbox One, PS4 & PC, too.

The real news is that Marvel & Capcom still have some semblance of a working relationship post-MvCI.
If nothing else, there's hope for a MvC Legacy Collection in the near future.

Word of caution on these machines....the nostalgia can and will wear on you, though they are great for parties. I got the Street Fighter one this past holiday and replaced the board with a retropie. If THAT'S your jam, I'd recommend the the Marvel cabinet since the buttons are mostly there (I replaced mine altogether, and the joysticks were kind of meh).
The Turtles machine having 4 player though...I'm liking that.

They're always on sale somewhere too, I saw the SFII one for 199 at Walmart a few weeks back. Also check out your local Facebook Marketplace, I've seen people selling theirs for 100 bucks or less.
If so, then I hope that they go for the Arcade versions of
X-Men: Children of the Atom,
Marvel Super Heroes,
X-Men Vs. Street Fighter,
Marvel Super Heroes Vs. Street Fighter,
MvC1,
And the Xbox 360 versions of MvC2 & UMvC3.
Capcom's not paying the bills on this. Arcade 1up likely got separate licenses from Marvel and Capcom.
Also, does nikelodeon own TMNT since their logo is on the cab?
