- Did Arcade1Up Lose Their Marvel Vs. Capcom 2 Competitive Advantage? Almost 2 years ago Arcade1Up announced they had freed MVC2 as Marvel vs. Capcom 2 would once again be available exclusively on their home arcade. Today Capcom announced the Marvel vs. Capcom Fighting Collection and now these games are available on consoles. Where does this leave Arcade1Up going forward?

Welcome to my channel. I have been playing and collecting games since 1987 and I use this channel to share my passion and memories of gaming. I review games that I believe are under appreciated or wrongfully dismissed on Game Genie Reviews. Video Game Nostalgia is a fun series where I take a look at a topic from my gaming past and share games that come to mind from it. I also do Top 10 lists, of course I do...what else is on youtube right? Well I like to think I put my own spin on them because they are based on my life in gaming. Hope you enjoy the channel and always looking forward to hearing from you.

Hi Everyone, Thanks for watching! What did you think about the Marvel vs. Capcom Fighting Collection Announced today and will it impact your decision on whether to buy an Arcade1Up Marvel vs. Capcom 2 in the future?
Been playing Turok 1,2,and 3 remastered on steam
I was looking for the cabinet to go on sale and get one but now ill just buy the steam version and use it with my Quanba 2009 table and be really satisfied.
it absolutely SHOULD impact your decision to buy the Xmen '97 cab...that you should buy it (cab) immediately!!
Great & surprising announcement! Definitely getting this for my switch to play. Being it is also coming to PC, maybe get a mini-PC, put this collection in it, and then mod the Deluxe cab. BOOM, better game selection and what should have been. Like you said, The Punisher!!
Arcade1up lost their entire advantage when they started pricing their cabs at $699.
Wait when did they charge $799? Do you mean Canadian? Most expensive Cab I have seen was Time Crisis at $749
@@MichaelBtheGameGenienah most arcade cabinets have been sold 3rd party and most are sold at 500 and up
It's only for us fancy people I guess
The most expensive one I’ve seen from arcade 1up was Killer Instinct.
I don't remember which one was $799 but I remember the Simpsons cabinet launched at $699 USD.
For a $40 game most likely on all platforms. It’s a wrap for Arcade 1 up. It’s funny because greed and pride will be your downfall just a matter of time. Ty capcom and Marvel
Im glad this happened. Having those games locked into an overpriced cabinet was a bad call from the start.
not everyone can afford those cabinets or even have enough space for them physically in their living space, those machines are more for the sake of being able to have an arcade machine in your house rather than just playing a specific game. MVC2 just happens to be one of the most popular arcade games ever made because of the enormous character roster
They are cockroach 🪳 houses
Those 1up cabs were stupidly expensive.
Considering the issues the MVC2 cab has, which they never fixed, and the price. It's pretty much dead in the water now that the games will be widely available.
I wouldn’t spend a single dollar on those cheap ass cabinets. So this is amazing for console players. PHYSICAL of course
I still have X-men vs capcom on my ps3 along with the Simpsons and X-men arcade but definitely happy it’s coming back to modern consoles 🔥🔥🔥🔥
I mean... I have near endless ways to pay Pac Man, yet they have no problem selling Pac Man cabs. Same thing with Street Fighter. The exclusivity isn't why people bought that cab
I just canceled my x-men cabinet now I can put that $500 towards a nice mini LED TV
sure, you did bud.
@@user-jm8bj1hd3d looks like you need a hug🤗🥰
Smart move.
Of course you did 😅
@@user-jm8bj1hd3d😂
Cabinets are cool but 1ups are made with cheap materials and still wanna sell it at 500 bucks. Not worth it
I'd bet if you built one your self it'd cost double or triple to build then they sell there's for.
MARVEL vs. CAPCOM Fighting Collection is coming out this holiday why buy an arcade for 700$ dollar
The best part it’s multi platform … Im stoked …
Except for Xbox. Because Xbots don't buy games and Capcom/Disney want sales so they're skipping WelfarePass
Not xbox and no cross play
@@georgehernandez2156I saw no Xbox but where does it say no cross play
@@Schlumped1684 None of the collections have been cross play thus far. Doesn't mean it can't be unlocked later but it has been years...
This explains the rush to get that X-men 97 out before we knew if the show was a hit. They knew this was coming and want to sneak in another run of MVC2.
That show had nothing to do with.
Im just happy that i dont have to pay a ton to play a gem of a game.
Best answer!
Arcade 1up has the toy license for the arcade machine which is totally different than the video game license. Only thing that is hurting Arcade 1up is their pricing these days. They have done like every other company since the pandemic, Arcade 1up should offer free upgrades to their customers who purchase these machines instead of making another machine. I have a Marvel vs Capcom machine and that machine since its themed that should of had a update that would have installed MVC2 on my machine instead of giving me a SNES rom.
Some of the fastest uploads of all time 😂😂😂😂😂 CAPCOM bout to break the internet
Dude this was announced like 5 hours ago I am way behind schedule lol
It’s insane a game like MVC2 is locked behind a $600 arcade cabinet, being the only “legitimate” way to play the game.
I’m glad Capcom and Marvel have come to whatever agreement to bring these games back to the masses and in the hands of gamers. This is a great moment for fighting fans the world over.
I don’t think a collection of this caliber will ever be offered again, so definitely buy it and support it! I know I am, but I can’t justify paying $600 for an arcade cabinet just to have MVC2 in an “official” capacity.
I never understood the Punisher thing. Even MVC characters used guns.
Agreed it was the dumbest thing ever and now we can clearly see this was an Arcade1Uo choice
Not sure of it was as much of a choice as if they were even allowed to use it. Remember they only got the Marvel license as a Toy. Not a game. I think that might’ve been more of the issue as toys are under more scrutiny as it needs to be marketable for kids?
The inclusion of The Punisher is what was the biggest curveball for me. Apparently if you pay enough for the license people will sell anything. It’s just Economics
I feel bad for people that bought this just for those games, like people that are not an arcade person and just wanted to legally play these. Cause holy Christ I just dodged the $500+ bullet for the past month, I've juggled so much if I really wanted it. Now I can buy it with my preferred console. On-the-go gaming with MvC classics is such a bizarre thing to think that its real.
You say that Arcade 1up was afraid to bring The Punisher because of guns, etc but they already had that game in the Marvel Super Heroes Cab. 🙄
I’m sorry if you are not up on all the information but Punisher has been on several Arcade1ups in the past, the problem is that they can no longer do it. This question was asked to Arcade1Up when MVC2 was first announced and they stated Punisher would no longer appear on their cabs
I'm so hyped for a physical release of The Punisher it's the first time it's ever been available on a home console
There was a Sega Genesis version of the game. It was inferior to the arcade version.
@@Batman43221 yeah but isn't this the actual arcade version
@@angelotero7729 Yes.
Competition makes companies compete =more and better products for the consumers
Man I hope so something needs to wake Arcade1up up
Those MVC2 cabs are now $600 paperweights. I expect the prices of those to drop soon. That said it awesome this game is now available for everyone
MVC2 played on a PS4 or Switch via an OLED TV with an arcade stick is a far better experience over a cheaply bult Acarde1up any day of the week.
Yes! I’m looking to get the Hori mini arcade stick for Switch, arcade experience right in your living room!
Arcade1up is pretty much dumped their reputation down the drain the moment they overpriced a bunch of cheap cabinets meant to be played at. They let their fame overtake their dense minds and think people will consume their products by overpaying a price that isn’t worth the value. The TMNT mini cabinet was the last time I’ve bought a cabinet from them as I’ve learn that Arcade1up is no longer worth the dime for overselling and overhyping cabinets not worth the value versus paying 300+ dollars for a SF2 cabinet that was fun to experience during their first introduction.
I don't usually buy cabinets from companies like 1Up and I instead look for original arcade cabinets and surprisingly I find them around $200-$400 and sometimes $500 if they are in perfect condition
Well it’s like everything involving a license. As long as it’s making money it’s good for the contract time that arcade 1up bought for that particular license. And the biggest problem is they recycle a lot of cabs without getting new ones.
Apparently I can’t remember where I saw this the fighting game collection is going to be a series of games. If that’s true we could get a collection that includes power stone and rival schools.
The many Capcom Game Collections are already a series. SF, best-em-ups, Arcade, Mega Man, etc... Maxmillion Dude was the one who stupidly waxed poetic about this being some new series. It's not.
No rollback, no online after launch for months ... weren't all the matches taking place on the same stages too? Arcade1UP torpedoed their own launch.
Whats the relationship between the Punisher game and the vs series? I played a lot of vs games growing up and never have seen the Punisher game ever
The Punisher game was the first Marvel game that Capcom developed.
So glad i dont have to spend $599 over a lazy arcade machine that has a lot of input lag
The Punisher was on a Arcade1up cap. It was the Marvel Super Heroes Arcade1up. When they did the MvC2 cab, they swapped Punisher with MvC2. Which yeah, I would pick MvC2.
When did they ever have one? It's well-known that the Arcade 1up cabs were vastly inferior to the original / DC port and no tournament runs them
There will be a wave of new gamers that will have a chance to play mvc on next gen console. If they enjoy mvc they might want to get an MVC arcade1up In their home. More options for the consumer
X-Men Mutant Apocalypse is solid. Marvel War For The Gems was just okay. Better than the Sega Genesis Marvel games.
Tbh this damn collection was begged, and demanded by others. Outside of the arcade 1up space for so long, I’m glad Capcom did this because I surely didn’t buy the cabinet. lol I still see the charm of arcade 1up, and real arcades but it’s not like these games can’t run on modern platforms and PC. We all can agree this time on consoles and PC you can bet the netcode will hopefully be up to par. Plus who are we kidding? A much larger player base too online.
Oh yeah people wanted this and wanted it bad, I am glad to see this one finally be freed freed and hopefully more widely celebrated
Arcade 1 up is still the best nothing beats arcade machines
ArcadeGeeks manufacturing is way better than Arcade 1up quality and it's cheaper 👍
True that..arcade better than anything else
New sub here , such great news man. I can’t tell you how much money spent at the arcade on mvc2 man , I’m so excited! Side note great hat! Go Os 😂
I definitely don't have the funds for any of the marvel 1ups, so this is perfect. definitely a day one purchase soon as it gets a date. I have all of capcom's other compilation arcade releases so without a doubt going to make room for this one assuming they confirm a physical edition release.
As long as they can afford the license and make money on the product.
I don't imagine Switch availability will have huge impact, since it was already available for free to arcade enthusiasts. The big question is have they they already sold a cabinet to everyone willing to pay for it?
That's what Jon D the product manager gets for cheaping out on every single part of that MVC2 cabinet. Everything from the android board, laggy screen, clone sanwa sticks and buttons and nonexistent online lobbies. The only thing its good for is as furniture to look at. Needless to say I'll be swapping out all those parts for a PS4 PRO. Don't buy anything from Jon D all he cares about is making a buck and ripping you off.
I'm thrilled. I could never justify pulling the trigger on a cab. It was WAY too rich for my blood so being able to play MvC2 though this collection and on Steam WITH rollback at a fraction of the cost? I'm happy.
Arcade 1 up has the arcade rom where consoles don’t and you don’t play on controllers so far arcade 1 up is way better if your a true fan of these games you would buy the arcade 1 up for $599 not wait until the console version gets released I’m still buying the PS4 Nintendo Switch Steam versions when they get released but they will not beat arcade 1 up
I do wonder who they got the license unless they used 1uparcade as loophole
No xbox is such a travesty 😮
Agreed, it's a strange choice
Arcade 1 up will never lose theirs is better are you kidding consoles beating arcade 1 up playing with joystick and arcade buttons just like you did in the arcade I’m still buying the marvel Vs capcom collection for PS4 Nintendo Switch Steam really wanted the Xbox also
There’s such a thing as fight sticks for console and pc lol
@@Ghost_VisualsI own the arcade fighting sticks for Xbox 360 PS2 PS3 PS4 PS5 I didn’t know they feel the same way as the arcade machines are you serious you must of not been born in the 80’s that you would want the arcade stick for consoles arcade 1 up we stand up not sit down we stand up
I almost bought the MVC 1up 3 seperate times. Instead of each time I bought Valve Index, Switch and a new tv, and then a ton of switch games on sale. Even at $800 CAD I just couldn't justify owning an arcade unit for a system I own most of the games for anyways. I'm lucky enough to still own my dreamcast versions of the games I cared about on this unit.
I guess that punisher excuse 1up gave us for removing it from the mvc playlist was bs. Capcom just didn’t want to include it or give it to 1up for the newer cabs probably since they knew this was in the works. That is my speculation.
Its not even the same thing. The Arcade 1up cabinets are considered toys. There is a massive difference between the license for a toy and a license for a video game.
@@lutherheggs451 check with your wife in regards to the toys she needs to sustain a sex life while you play with your toy arcades.
yo i wonder who got the ok too release this port dang . was it capcom or Disney ?
You could still play McC2 on 360 and I believe PS3 if you had gotten it when it was available... I still have it on my 360 as well as the dreamcast and Xbox disc's...
Though I agree about The Punisher being in this collection it's awesome. I was looking at getting that Marvel Arcade 1up that originally had it as you can sometimes still come across it in stores or maybe second hand, but that was the main reason I was wanting that was for The Punisher...
Now with it being available in this collection, I'm set. I don't have to throw 600+ just for a collection of games and I much prefer to play using a controller anyways....
Yes I know we could get it through Mame and stuff, but my emulation PC gaming days are done. Heck just PC in general for me is done. I have one but I haven't used it in years.
This news kills any reason to buy an A1U MVC2. 10 times the price for worse controls, worse gameplay, less features, and no punisher. Someone will do a mod on an dynamo cab with a ps4 mod with the new collection though.
not at all. the cab is still cool if you upgrade the sticks and buttons and arent someone who cares about online.

Absolutely, and now all the Walmarts and targets or whatever have a buncha overstock as a result
I need this collection on Xbox Live/Game Pass!!!
I see it because I was about to get a arcade up but now that I heard this news probably change my mind now if they lower the arcade 1 up price I might consider it
I think I heard John D say that Arcade 1Up was going to let you buy add on games to your WiFi cabinets. Have you heard anything about that? Could it be possible for Arcade 1Up to sell the Punisher as DLC?
Not to say that I willed this into existence before this got announced I was saying that I want there to be a collection like the 1up arcade machine that everyone can afford. Everyone doesn’t have 600 dollars laying around to spend on arcade machines. I said it over and over again but I thought it was never going to happen. Along comes the June direct and I got almost exactly what I asked for. I say almost everything because they didn’t have two console side scrolling games and was no mvc3, ultimate or infinite. Say what you want about the roster or the graphics the gameplay itself was trying something new. I really was hoping to try it.
They got greedy just like all hobbies sadly. Definitely noticeable in statue collecting
Yeah a cheaper alternative will hurt Arcade1up duh..
Is the TMNT Arcade 1Up cab rare? Why is it mostly sold out these days?
Extremely rare now and very expensive on the secondary market.
I remember the expos in 1991 nice hat
Turok was a cool game, haven't played that in years. I was in my 20s when that game came out, but my little brother had it on N64.....pretty cool.
There is no such thing as having a competitive advantage with weak hardware and emulation. That's just Scienze 🤷🏼♀️
I got the MvC2 arcade in that $350US sale from a month ago.
Part of me wishes they did. It's about time they got wacked into their senses, and get reminded that there is no "caught fishes" when it comes to games. I don't want to lose Arcade1Up entirely, but they've been becoming complacent.
Im sure those arcade prices to sell 2nd hand have just fallen a little bit thats for sure.
I wish it was Alien Vs Predator Arcade instead of Punisher
I want AvP too but why is everyone asking for a non-Marvel property in a Marvel Collection?
With the intec mod you are good to go sir!... I'm tooooo excited!
The X-Men 97 cab made me finally purchase the 4-player X-Men cab. The artwork on the new 97 cab is weak. Interesting that Dazzler was in the game, but Jubilee made it in the show.
Here's a pipe dream: Arcade1up gives a free update that adds the Punisher to mvc2/xmen 97 😢
Arcade1up has been extorting people's money for long enough.
Yep no thanks Arcade 1Up I can get competitive with a Sanwa Fight stick and the collection for around $140
it isn't the only way to play M v C 2, why do you keep saying that? PS2...Xbox....DC
If it’s cross platform does that include Arcade1up. Get it off the Arcade1up servers and onto capcom servers?
No cross platform unfortunately
I thought this was a toy review channel?
That hat is fire, and totally fitting!
People selling their PS2 Marvel vs Capcom for $200+ go ahead and take that listing down.
😏🤣
They will still have value because the PS2 versions are physical copies.
This is release is digital
@@tom11zz884 ........ look up the term disc rot!
@@tom11zz884physical, too!
@tom11zz884 ..... yeah the composite cable blurry look and disc rot makes it worth the $200.
@tom11zz884 Ha... physical edition up on play asia (pre order) only a matter of time before it's on Amazon.
WELCOME TO 2024 🤣🤣🤣
Good thing I only bought one 😊 can’t wait to get the new mvc 2 collection
I like the way you say "Marvel" 😊
Anyone who's serious about mvc2 has been playing on emulators like nulldcbear so your incorrect that arcade1up is/was the only way to play online
think A1Up will ever have a downloadable games store?
any chance John D is working on that?
no Punisher hurt the cabinet for replayability.
I think it’s possible whatever John D has in store might have downloadable games
I just play it on my Dreamcast and so should you.
They should’ve also put X-Men the Arcade game
Different companies.
No way I'd get the MvC any more!
Not a big fan of those games as I am not very good at them and I don’t think their fun without similar skilled opponents, on top of that all those games are the basically clones don’t see the appeal (I don’t have any nastalga for them besides MVC2 but I cannot stand that character select music that need to change that 😂, I think the biggest issue for this game is if you do not have a solid arcade stick its unplayable, I don’t see how people enjoy those games without arcade controls
They definitely did.
I doubt it there will be physical copies tho
Physical copies have been confirmed in the website.
Arcade 1 up is done u can buy a PS5 and the new collection for the price of a cabinet new
In wrestling terms it's low blow to Arcade 1up 😂
You want to be competitive. Countercades at a cheaper price. Stop being so selfish.
Like the hat go expo go..
Thank you!
Literally said nothing but Meeervel like 100 times
If they did. Good
Why do Xbox version 😢
For Xbox gamers, their only option is to either buy a console they may not want, or buy an MVC2 cab. Until there is an Xbox release, #MVCIsNotFree
Is Konami x men on this game?
Unfortunately not im afraid that game is forever locked by konami unless they decide to release the game again or restored the licence no one will ever see that game😭😭😭 again
@epicthurock thank you very much buddy.
I don't have a console, so 🤷
There's also a Steam version.
Arcade1up will never sale another Marvel machine.
ALU, Steam, LegendsLink Wirelessly Baby!
