Capcom Teases An Arcade Collection With Some Rare Gems

Could it be Switch-bound?

Not so long ago, Capcom surprised everyone with its Beat 'Em Up Bundle, a selection of famous scrolling fighting titles which included Final Fight and Knights of the Round. Now, it would appear that the company is following this collection up with a second compilation, this time focused on a broader range of titles.

Capcom has released a trailer which shows a series of arcade titles reflected in the controls of a coin-op cabinet. From the footage, we can make out Darkstalkers, a one-on-one fighter in the same style as Street Fighter II (which is also included in this trailer). There's also Aliens vs. Predator and Progear, two titles that have never seen the light of day outside of arcades, and Giga Wing, a shooter which was also ported to the Dreamcast.



Capcom's teasing an announcement tomorrow at 3PM, UK time.

Is this a new collection of games, or is Capcom planning on releasing these titles individually? Will they be coming to Switch? Let us know your thoughts with a comment.

[DunDunDunpachi]

Oh shittttt

I spy some Gigawing, Darkstalkers, and Progear no Arashi.

I'm down, CAPCOM. Impress me.

 

[SALMORE]

Woow awesome !! i can finally play Aliens Vs Predator at home ( legally )

 

[deriks]

Woow awesome !! i can finally play Aliens Vs Predator at home ( legally )

YES!

 

[Pejo]

Any chance this might have Power Stone on it? I'm pretty sure that started in the arcade before it went to Dreamcast.

 

[atomic moth]

Although that version of street fighter may not be on CPS2, it looks like this is a CPS2 collection. CPS2 was used in arcades for a large amount of the golden 90s.

For those unfamiliar, the list of arcade system boards can be found here:

Yep, they were the classic Naomi to Dreamcast ports.

They are also available in Playstation Portable.

That collection has skyrocketed in price, btw, like many of the other PSP collections that've never been re-released since then.

 

[The Snake]

Holy crap, I thought I was the only person who knew what Progear was. Loved that game back in the day.

That + AVP = Sold

 

[93xfan]

Always interested in these kind of collections.

 

[Fake]

Cadillacs and Dinosaurs you bastards.

 

[Werewolf Jones]

Cadillacs and Dinosaurs you bastards.

That and AvP are what I wanted releasing the most. Wish AvP was just getting released on its own.

 

[Mr Nash]

Day one if these games come out.

 

[Ellis]

AvP Arcade is a fantastic beat 'em up. Still pissed that it never got a release on Saturn.

 

[Wonko_C]

Rumor says it's a $200 plug-and-play console with arcade sticks.

 

[johntown]

Big fan of Darkstalkers! I would get it soley for that.

 

[Crew 511A]

I never thought we'd see a port of Aliens vs Predator. Just do a release of the Xmen/Marvel games from the Saturn and Dreamcast era, and I'd be a happy man.

Not sure why they're throwing Street Fighter 2 on here again though.

Edit: Because it's on a new plug and play system. Ugh. Hype level just plummeted.

 

[Nymphae]

Not sure why they're throwing Street Fighter 2 on here again though.

That has to be something else given that they just put them all out on the 30th Anniversary collection.

 

[DunDunDunpachi]

Rumor says it's a $200 plug-and-play console with arcade sticks.

This would be kinda cool, as long as there were at least 30 or 40 ROMs games included.

Source on the rumor?

 

[atomic moth]

A plug and play console, eh?

Let me just beat some people to the punch:

Nintendo’s highly coveted SNES Classic Mini system comes out today and is certain to be a hot item. A word of advice to gamers who…

Thank you Wonko_C

 

[Tiamat2san]

AVP and darkstalkers, i’m In!

 

[Dev1lXYZ]

If it’s a plug and play system, it might be nice with some hacks if the joysticks are decent.

 

[DunDunDunpachi]

If it’s a plug and play system, it might be nice with some hacks if the joysticks are decent.

Joysticks and buttons would be the easiest to replace.

I'm more interested in seeing how sturdy the case is and how spacious the interior is (for said modding). Could be a cool piece of kit.

 

[Saber]

I hope its Dungeons & Dragons and Cadillac & Donosaurs.

 

[Nymphae]

I`m completely uninterested in another machine, just to play some old fighting games in a non-optimal way. Give me a disc with a bunch of old classics on it, add online play, and I`m sold.

 

[Crew 511A]

Kinda wish they'd just release the games in a compilation for existing consoles.

 

[MetalSlug]

Would be lovely if Power Stone got in on the collection.

 

[A.Romero]

Not interested if it's attached to hardware somehow.

 

[SidViscous]

Its a joystick that plugs into the TV and comes with a bunch of CPS1/CPS2 games, it won't have C&D but will have Alien vs Predator, Captain Commando, Darkstalkers, Xmen, a few version of Street Fighter and of course, everyone's favourite, Quiz Nanairo Dreams.

Okay, maybe not Nanairo.

 

[IbizaPocholo]

Avp!

 

[Dice]

I am instantly sold.

 

[drotahorror]

Would love Darkstalkers on PC.

 

[KOMANI]

I was hoping for The Punisher, but AvsP aint bad.

 

[ISubZBR]

Oh boy. I love giga wing.
I'm no good in shmups, but I love this games. The shield mecânica is really fun and make bullet hell sections playable.

Neve played Gw2 and 3

 

[Klart]

Woow awesome !! i can finally play Aliens Vs Predator at home ( legally )

Yes!

 

[Orta]

Mercs would be a nice addition

 

[alienator]

So let me get this straight, this rumor is about a 200$ plug'n'play arcadestick with games that are more niche and totally not appealing for today's crowd (but oldskool lovers will eat it up, like me ) , instead of a 19,99$ downloadable collection on ps4/xbx/switch ?

if so, pass. i have about a dozen fighsticks already in the house.. and not to mention the number of machines (consoles) already playing the full cps/1/2/3 collection with them.

 

[dan76]

Progear, I'm all in for Progear. Never ported to anything.

 

[Agent_Carnage]

That would be pretty dope if it was a plug and play like the NES/SNES classics. If it was well made and the joysticks and buttons felt premium I would pick it up in a heart beat.

I... will perhaps wait to see what else they reveal regarding this piece of kit but... yeah.

16 games?

 

[Orta]

Not a great lineup tbh. Hopefully that usb port in the rear can be 'utilized'

 

[Saber]

Killed my interest already.

No thanks.

 

[DunDunDunpachi]

Not a great lineup tbh. Hopefully that usb port in the rear can be 'utilized'

It has wi-fi onboard, so expect to see a digital storefront built into the machine.

Would've been nice as a standalone unit if it included more games.

 

[Northeastmonk]

The background is suppose to be black. Why is it white? I'd love to own one though.

 

[Orta]

€230. Yikes!
