After a leaked retail listing in late November, Capcom has officially revealed the Retro Station console featuring a variety of Mega Man and Street Fighter titles.
If you're getting it as a collectors item, because it's an official Capcom product, sure why not. For $210 you could get something far better with a thousand games or more loaded if you're into retro games
My main issue with devices like this is, you can get a lot of these games and then some on your system of choice for a lot less. If you like Street Fighter, the latest collection will get you all of the included SFII games, plus much more. Unless you're getting all the content from the console releases (which seems highly unlikely as these are probably the arcade versions), there's nothing here Street Fighter wise that you need this overpriced paperweight for.
If you like Mega Man, I guess you can decide whether you really badly want the games included here, which I've found out are actually different from the standard games found in most collections. Does it really justify the cost of this thing though? I guess it depends on how huge a Mega Man fan you are. This thing is definitely not for me though.
Sometimes I really don't understand these companies... Capcom could release this little machine with (really fast the first that comes to my mind): D&D mistara /doom, Strider 1-2, SSF2Turbo - SFAlpha 2-3, Darkstalkers, some Futbol-Tenis game, One of the Pang games, Some shooters (don't remember the names), the Megaman inclusion tahts great ... It would sell at least better. I think they don't understand the treasure they have. In any case. Hope the quality of the console is great ,people will mod it and put every single game in it
They already had that giant CAPCOM controller with 2 fight sticks and buttons with loads of retro games built in. If it wasn’t for Resident Evil i’d say screw Capcom and their sleazy ways. Long live Capcom.
No Ultra Street Fighter 2?? Why?
As expected-a bunch of versions of street fighter 2.
Did the US ever get that arcade thing that included Aliens vs Predator?
Well this is a pointless and pretty expensive release. Street fighter 2 and the crappy megaman minigames lol I guess collectors will eat this up
Damn that thing is ugly easy pass
