It looks like Capcom Arcade Stadium is getting a sequel | VGC

A South Korean rating for Capcom Arcade 2nd Stadium has been…

www.videogameschronicle.com

A new entry on the site today is titled “Capcom Arcade 2nd Stadium”, while another has the name “Capcom Arcade 2nd Stadium Bundle #1”.

Both entries have the description: “A PC game that features various retro arcade games from the ’80s and ’90s developed by Capcom as a collection.”

Both have also been given a 15+ age rating, compared to the 12+ age rating given to the first Capcom Arcade Stadium in South Korea.

According to the website, the higher rating is for “exposure of female characters’ bodies” and “body mutilation, amputation etc. appearing in fighting games”.

Truth be told the first Arcade Stadium is a bit disappointing

No way!

Was worth it for giga wing, progear & Varth alone!

And it's even better when you realise you can buy just the games you want for £1.69 a pop

I ended up buying the entire collection though.

Hopefully this next capcom collection focuses on their 3D or licensed games (or both)

Hopefully it's an expansion for the existing arcade so we can access all the games from one SKU.

I wish they would release a physical of the first.

Capcom caught out bulshitting again, they claimed they could add more games to the original arcade Stadium, now they are just going to sell a whole new game instead.

Yup first one i ignored.
And i bought the capcom arcade one

 

[SALMORE]

It would probably cost the same anyways.
I'll just consider this volume 2.

Probably, as long as they don't have licensed games in there. I'd rather have just one icon to push rather than the games split over two volumes.

 

[Mr Hyde]

They need to release the arcade version of Willow. The game never appears in one of their collections.

Alien vs Predator

i just want a physical copy of Aliens Vs Predator !

People have been begging Capcom to port this masterpiece for decades. I just hope Capcom finally listen this time. AvP arcade would be glorious with local co-op!

MAKE IT HAPPEN, CAPCOM!

 

[PJX]

I would love Cadillac & Dinosaurs, Alien vs Predator and Punisher. That's all I ever want.

I know about that, but I refused to pay a three figure sum to play one game.

If Capcom can release it on this home arcade mini console, then why not on current consoles and PC?

I got your physical copy right here (it somehow, magically, includes AvP).

It bought it just for Strider and Ghouls & Ghosts. Two of my favorite games EVER.

 

[ClanOfNone]

Gimme Black Tiger for the love of god.

Progear and 19XX alone are proof youre 100% wrong.

The first Capcom Stadium is the best arcade collection ever released I can think of.
Its only flaw is that it has too many versions of Street Fighter.

Day 1 for the full set. Loved the first one.

 

[Werewolf Jones]

Need to see the full games list.

 

[Rayderism]

Couldn't just release DLC packs for the first one?

I guess it doesn't really matter, I'll buy it either way.

 

[Naked Lunch]

Very cool this is happening. Im wondering what the list is going to be.
Hopeful for Dreamcast era stuff like - Strider 2, Power Stone(s), Mars Matrix, Dimahoo, and Gigawing 2.

 

[Elbow Identity Shallow]

Always good to see things like this giving people easy access to older games.

A very different way of doing it but I feel that for anybody truly serious about these games it's worth mentioning the MiSTer project which now has Capcom's full CPS1 and CPS2 library as well as their pre CPS games as well as loads of other arcade systems like Cave 68000 running natively on the hardware. Of course, not what everybody will want but it is a fantastic option for these systems.

Not my video but it's recent so will give people an idea of what's currently going on. Sorry for taking this off topic but I do feel it was worth mentioning here.

 

[daffyduck]

Releasing next month, yet the game list is *still* a secret.

Probably, but sales of "old" games seem to taper off, while new games get promoted as new even if they're standalones of the original. (Capcom could have just ported over Capcom Arcade Cabinet and continued releasing for that too, but that didn't happen.)

From a business perspective, maybe I get why they do them in chunks like this, but for gamers, it's very fucking annoying. (An exception would be they did it where the new Capcom Arcade Stadium wrote over the old one, so that it was a "new" game and an update at the same time," or if they had a thing where the two apps clicked over to each other or referenced each other's games if they had to do it that way.) And, of course, it's selling gamers the same games over and over (much like the Mega Man collections and everything else that comes back again and again, sometimes in better forms of emulation but still, it's a sloppy way to keep a collection and it's not much more than a moneygrab in this era of digital downloads.)
