The Punisher should've also been included, I'm worried if a console port happens that game will be left out again.
Don't think that's how these deals work out-- i think these are licensed like toys or physical goods which aren't as difficult or expensive as digital releases.
This is....not what was wanted. Cool, but not what I wanted.
It's not a full cabinet, as they are selling the riser to go along with it. It's going to cost $700 USD. (I don't know that as fact, but trust me when I say, this is the premium item they are going to slap that price tag on.) And finally, it's not what I wanted.
I'm hoping that we get a collection on console 12-18 months after September 8th (when preorders start), but I'm not holding my breath.
Yet another reason why I am still holding on to my X360.

If it's not on consoles it is not successfully.
Reminds me of that abysmal campaign livestream where people wanted sonic 3 on Android and not on console

The thing is this says they are making agreements so ideally we will see something similar on consoles.
A lot of people in this thread managing to miss the larger point of success that a video game publisher managed to successfully negotiate the rights to do a modern release of the entire classic Marvel VS arcade series. This selling out almost instantly will hopefully be enough to motivate Marvel/Disney to allow a console collection to happen in the near future. It's an important step where before we had literally nothing for years.
But no, go ahead and rant and be negative.

This isn't really the same thing. Something being licensed for Arcade1up isn't really representative of other plans. That stuff is viewed fairly differently than console releases by licensors.
I dont even have the room just for more than a select few boards and a super gun, let alone a cab... (its why I have some amazing CPS1/2/3 multi boards which covers a nice portion of Capcom's arcade history).
I'd love a proper home/PC modern port of this stuff. Space wont allow me to have a cab like that... pity, its quite nice.
I actually just moved into a place where I could theoretically have room for this… And the compilation of games makes it very tempting. If it was just MVC2 installed on the cab, I'd be out, but this range of games? HMMM.
God, it pisses me off that these games are trapped in $400 prisons.
Games being exclusive to the arcade are what set console/PC players back 20-30 years.

Have you played any fighting games on A1U? Only one cab out of a dozen have lobbies and spectator mode. Hopefully this one has those.
Rumored to be $599
Should also be one of the first major upgrades to the pcb if rumors are correct. So get ready for a new generation of arcade1up cabs for the next few years.
Sure. Twist the knife further into my heart with this cold truth.
I've never had an arcade machine, as soon as I saw it I needed it, but now you've swayed me. I want an arcade machine in my life, not a dinky put on a small table thing. Do I get one from a site like 1Up? I just want to be able to play arcade games again.
I fully accept the blame so apologies - only meant for #FreeMVC2 to be a positive thing!

Yeah, to everyone who is port-begging, this is the real reason Arcade 1UP gets lots of licenses.
It's much easier to license stuff to hardware categorised as a toy, then it is for console storefronts.
Kind of bitter sweet. Like, it's cool a collection like this exists, but how many people get to actually play it?
I see A1U has finally upgraded their tech to handle Naomi stuff. Would love to see them get proper digital releases as well but I guess this is a start.
Nah, it's a 3/4th scale system. It's big-ish, just not regular sized. Don't let me sway you against it: buy it. Seriously, buy it and enjoy it!
I can't get it because I literally don't have the room (and it's the reason why I bought the Street Fighter 2 Partycade and then got the PCB from the MvC cabinet to throw in there) but trust and believe, if I had the room, it would be mine.
It's true. There's a Golden Axe 2: Death Adder's Revenge cabinet. That game has never been ported to NA consoles.
Price confirmed, $599.99.
Also confirmed, this is your only chance to purchase MVC2. When it sells out, it's gone forever.
Of course but I fail to see how this isn't a good thing for the chances of seeing a similar collection on consoles. Heck we have a TMNT collection that is huge coming out and it was a couple years after the TMNT 1up arcade. This gives me lots of faith in seeing something MVC on consoles.
it's never been ported to any console-- not just the US. it's been ported to A1U and the first Sega Astro City Mini.
Very much my thoughts lol, can't blame them for trying to coattails off it for hype, but paying ~$400-600 for wifi MvC2 is probably not what the movement had in mind.
