Limited Run Games press release

Past meets present

Along with the actual games, Capcom Arcade Stadium Vol. 1 will include five covers to pick from when you pre-order. And in keeping with most modern LRG offerings, it’ll indeed be available for all three major platforms. Those would be the Xbox One, PS4, and Nintendo Switch, if you’re keeping track.

As for the details, Limited Run Games says that the collection will offer “true arcade authenticity”. Don’t worry though, as there’s also a host of modern features set to be included as well. Customization options like CRT-esque scan lines, speed-adjustments, saving/loading, and a rewind feature will all be onboard.
