Capcom has made a flawless emulator for the 80’s arcade games where you can choose for yourself which games you want to include in the collection. If you have fond memories of any of the games in Capcom Arcade Cabinet I recommend you to buy that title individually though, as some of the games haven’t aged well and are way too hard and monotone to be worth your time. Also the price is a bit steep.
There are several hidden gems in here, so you might find some interesting surprises. As a collection it's as good as we expected it to be, but taking into account the price of the individual games, you should probably go for those you really need to complete your collection.
Capcom Arcade Cabinet presents a good opportunity to reminisce the works of one of the most prolific developers in the history of videogames. Price will remain decent if we purchase specific packs instead of the whole lot, and this is the best option for those eager to go down the memory lane.
The whole ‘turning your console into an HD arcade’ feature is a hogwash (pixels look like paving slabs and there are black stripes on the sides of the screen), but it’s a nice blast from the past. [CD-Action 06/2013, p.65]
Like a crack dealer in council flats the first hit is free, then the really good stuff is gonna cost you depending on what you want. However, it’s a thrill you’ve had before, and unless you’re really pining for the past (and don’t have all these old titles on your myriad other handheld and home devices) you can leave these alone as they’re presented as arcade perfect with no upgrades.
