Loaded up with an eight-pack of classic Marvel titles, Arcade1Up’s new X-Men ’97 cab is heading to retail this spring.
To me, my arcade cabinet
Unless you’ve been living under a rock, you’re all too aware of the ’90s X-Men rebirth that’s on the way. Headlined by a brand new Disney+ TV show that looks to continue the storyline from the iconic 1992 cartoon, there are brand new toys on the horizon, and now we know an arcade cabinet as well.
From the 3/4 scale masters at Arcade1Up, the new X-Men ’97 arcade machine will be delivering a series of eight Marvel Comics video game classics, and feature all-new deco. Fans will find a lighted marquee bearing the new series’ title, plus a 17″ monitor, faux coin doors, a two-player control suite, and wi-fi functionality (for leaderboards).
Plus, as the cherry on top, all of the above will be highlighted by fresh X-Men ’97 artwork, splashed across the sides of the unit. Check it out in all its glory below.
Boasting bespoke features and legendary pre-loaded titles such as Marvel vs Capcom 2, X-Men vs Street Fighter, and Marvel Super Heroes, this heroic deluxe edition cabinet is now open for pre-orders directly on Arcade1up.com and will be available for direct purchase in Spring 2024. Bring the thrill of unleashing hyper combo finishers home. Excelsior!
Arcade1Up press release
Pre-orders for the above are posted right now, via a portal on Arcade1Up’s online shop. The cab has a price tag of $499.99 USD, and looks like it’ll be shipping pretty fast, and heading out fans starting the week of April 25th, 2024. That’s just a month behind the debut of X-Men ’97 on Disney+ by the way, which lands on March 20th.
