At least they didn’t censor Honda’s background

[@Madlittlepixel]

Ah thats rite! Good observation, I forgot about the recent censorship non sense!

[@Grooveraider]

I have TONS of ways to play SF2'. But I like the novelty mini factor of it ! YES, they didn't censor E. Honda's bathhouse like the Nintendo Switch ! I'm gonna pick this up ! 👍

[@orderofmagnitude-TPATP]

What? Censor? - ok im probably late on this as im very oldskool.... but what have they censored on Hondas background of late? - please answer. Vcurious. Many thanx. Much love to all. From a gamin veteran that unfortunately had to sell his collection in 2013 and never quite got over it lol

[@SLURM187]

I think this is a steal at 50 bucks. It plays well. The joystick is loose, but it actually makes it easier to pull off moves quickly.

[@Twalk-mi4pd]

Yeah the joystick is so loose and I hate it

[@Cargo_Bay]

FINALLY. They teased this at CES last year. I'm sure covid delayed stuff, but outside of CES, there wasn't a peep about this! I went ahead and got the other bigger version made by New Wave Toys, and its a pretty sweet desk piece to leave on.

[@GangstaMojo]

The loose joystick is arcade accurate if you were around back in the day when that game first came out to the arcades you would know. I want one

[@FredGrabara]

I'm imagining the loose stick would help with the light cabinet so you don't need too much force to work it and wind up moving the machine.

[@lstruggy]

Decades ago 7/11s & moms & pops liquor stores are notorious for having the loosey goosey joysticks 🕹 I want 1!

[@beauwalker9820]

It looks pretty cool, (though a bit expensive compared to past MyArcade cabinets.) I want one. Nice it's an arcade port, but with added custom options. Love the cabinet art.

[@abbycam7213]

All in all doesn't seem as bad as their old machines. Have you played their Space Invaders one? The screen reflection is very nice looking and something no other company has pulled off. Definitely their best machine!

[@tavialew3224]

I have one as well. I got mine at target . I bought cause I collect anything street fighter. It's cute. Mine is more for looks tho.

[@TexasHollowEarth]

Shame that neither this one, nor the superior New Wave Toys model has Hyper Fighting on it. Always great to see a lady who digs OG Street Fighter 👍.

[@PhillyTJ]

How big is the screen tho

[@LITTLE1994]

Some tiny arcade. Imagine showing this to your school back in 1992 or '93, despite the flatscreen.

[@Frank_D]

At the $25-30 range they're pretty cute. I've got some of the MyArcade and Basic Fun Walmart exclusive mini cabinets set up on a shelf with some 6" action figures. The stick on this one looks better than their old cabinets. I probably wouldn't want to play Street Fighter on one of these, but it's pretty cool that the option exists. The $50 price tag is more than I'd want to pay, but I get it, seeing as the shell looks like a brand new mold, they're actually using the arcade version of the rom, they've managed to integrate a 2-player system into it, and at least to my ear it sounds like they put microswitches in that joystick.

[@TheMultiGunMan]

Very interesting. Thanks for the video Brother.

[@devboogie6765]

Thanks for this video just brought the last from target in nj on pick up going to pick it up this week or weekend. And I only paid 44$ for it I’m so hype ❤

I haven’t seen these yet. Looks pretty cool.

[@darktetsuya]

damn! really this just made me want to revisit SF2 on the capcom arcade stadium collection on Nintendo switch! already have the hori fight stick mini so that's more than adequate for all the arcade action on SF2 I could ever want!

Can't wait to get one to mod a pi into it.

[@seansomething9779]

I have a feeling this is facetious but I've never done a pi... Yet that was my first thought, for $50 this is a lovely size and quality for a home build... The new capcom thing would be much better but less money wasted if we fry this thing trying

[@mikahl757]

Here for the honest reviews and variety of videos 👍🏾

[@themystx2]

can you stick a rpi into one of these? would make for a badass little setup.

[@pauldavis5665]

They should make one of these that has all the old Street Fighter games packed into it (All the Street Fighter II's, all the Street Fighter Alpha's, and Street Fighter III's). Even if they doubled the price it would be worth it.

Im a huge Street Fighter fan so im willing to get it just to display.

[@GEORGIOARCADE]

I thought it was funny yet cool how you spent your own money to get one just to review for us. I appreciate you being honest with us and my arcade. I wonder if you can switch out the loose Joystick with a less loose one? $50 isn't that bad. It'd be cool if they made a Mortal Kombat one 😁

[@fordxbgtfalcon]

They do make a Mortal Kombat one. it's sold at Walmart.

[@GEORGIOARCADE]

@@fordxbgtfalcon ohh ok cool! I'll have to go check that out. Thanks for telling me 😊👍🏼

Man I’ve been waiting for this to finally come out! I collect these and they are pretty awesome even if the gam play isn’t that great..$50’is a little steep.. but they will Prob come down over time

[@MondraGeek]

Is that a rammstein tattoo? Dude!! My fav band, anyway cool video man!

[@madmax2069]

Yeah I can understand why the joystick is a little bit loose, if the device doesn't weigh a lot they didn't want you fighting the unit instead of fighting in the game lol. Pretty much to keep it in one place when you do a combo or something.

[@popixel]

I like the fact you can take it off of widescreen, my Replicade can’t do that.

Eh longtime fan from san marcos ca. Miss when u used to go to the pinball museum remember that spot. Dude it looked dope. Anyways u from oc or ie. Hu. Anyways . Umm does that let other controllers to plug in ? And u need to see the new neo geo hylo super hack this dude fixed all the images he really touched it up. It's the bomb. I wanna put it on my neo geo stick. I have three pandora's boxes and a neo geo stick. I'm trying to hack my original xbox I just got but I gotta figure it out. Anyways I watch you and rgt85 everyday and umm heavy metal gamer guy like he's in Oregon he's very interesting as well. With pc gaming. I go way back dog to earlyac and pc days even floppy games. They started me thinking because they were so far ahead of nintendo remember. I thought those graphics and sound was amazing remember lol . Doom was crazy wolfenstein duke nukem ... Anyways I'm way off topic. Yha can u use an external controller or I mean can u also plug Into a monitor like the neo geo mini. ??? There's a game by Game Boy called motorcycle Maniacs or gargoyles quest those two games I loved. And rc pro am. And super dodge ball . Good games. Anyways great channel ur gonna do big things and ur gonna blow up I can already see it. Get a spot with me at pluto tv . To have ur show always playing. Anyways much success and fortune be with you .

You should do a comparison between this and the other street fighter arcade cabinet that you review that came out before. See which one is better?

Playability wise, this is 100x better than the New Wave Toys RepliCade. I ended up selling mine.

[@STRINGTHING]

The Galaga Countercade Arcade1up has the same weird screen issue where to the left, the screen just is impossible to see.

[@kapitostes]

Madre mía! Los podrían hacer más pequeños? Están muy bien pero son demasiado pequeños para jugar bien. Gracias por el video 😃

[@j.d.ramirez8102]

Isn't a loose joystick ideal for SF2? I preferred the machines that had some miles on them which made the joystick loose and much easier to pull off the maneuvers. I for one think that is a plus. Am I alone on this?

[@Madlittlepixel]

I mean it works alright, but it just feels odd flopping around. In a traditional stick you can change out the spring for the tension you like to get that more worked in feel if you want. This is just real floppy with no real tension at all it appears.

[@OuterHavenMedia]

You're not alone. The loose joystick on this does make it easier to pull off the moves.

[@alexismazzanti6929]

I tought they were gonna use one of those sega genesis/megradrive-on-a-chip micro arcade chineses thingies as a base, seeing how they used the nes-on-a-chip ones for some of their stuff, but this does not seem to be that or android based, like their multi-game mini arcade cabinets. I do remember some chinese mini arcade thingies that had the same kind of 3.5 mm audio cable as a link cable. So... maybe it's based on that hardware? It would be nice to know!

[@RonaldDorsinator]

*I like it......i wish the joystick 🕹 wasnt so wonky & lose but guess they made it like that cause it so small*

[@S2KPHD]

Going to pick this one and try to mod (1) joystick and (2) real coin slot.

[@DavidLopez-fq9dt]

I put the difficulty on a 1 and the game is still EXTREMELY hard! The difficulty doesn’t change absolutely anything!

[@badazzboxer]

Saw these the other week, $50 is a little high I feel. $35 would be more reasonable.

[@kyleklmondwa9042]

At the very least something at that price point should have SUPER SF2 and a few other Capcom fighting games included in the cabinet.

[@Beyondesp]

When was/is this supposed to be released ? I stopped by my local target and only saw the pac man one.

[@THELONDONCHANNEL]

2021 - still finding ways to sell street fighter 2 special edition (or 92 ) as it was called back in the day , for £50+ 😕 I’ve owned this game about 100 times through console , handheld , arcade cabinets , mini arcade cabinets , and smart phones .

[@imanihodges3132]

Just got mine from Target. It's great, but the joystick is floppy and loose. I hope they make a MK II and Killer Instinct with the arcade port.

[@ckim420]

Picked one up today. The stick is okay, but has anyone else noticed that if you press down forward (from P1 side) and medium kick you get a light kick instead? Weird.

[@Angultra]

Native aspect ratio is nice, should’ve went with mini joysticks for 2P though rather than buying a whole other unit.

[@franklopez7019]

That’s a genius idea! If done right, they should make them a bit larger? Like 3x3? But batteries 🔋?? Hell no make it a bit bigger and let’s plug it in . 🤘 Man I would get SF, MK, TMNT in time, Killer Instinct and that marvel one.

[@joshuaupham5993]

It looks cool.

[@ryuhoshi2440]

I wonder if that is possible also with Tiny Arcade to have the smallest SF2CE that ever exist, there are multiple version SF2CE that were for smaller screen and made for Nokia devices so they are S60/Jar/Java software. There is SF2CE that has easy special moves and auto block, then there is another SF2CE that need to do the actual motion inputs.

[@bradlyj9760]

Why did they ask you to wait when its already sold at target?

[@geovani60624]

the stick has to be loose, if it's stiffer the machine would move around as you try to make your fast moves

[@chaddeez8446]

Must have good grip on the bottom or weights.

[@714SNF]

what's that cool walkman battery pack?

[@Khinh-xq6lx]

i think the stick better than old mortal kombat arcade stick, if it loose require less effort to move, if they make stiffer would make the stick more solid
