Walking into the arcade and hearing collosus roar over all of the other cabinets. Those were the days man.
I’m playing storm so I’m not standing next to colossus
Yes sir this proves that you were there lol 😆 colossus no joke loudest thing ever in the arcades.
RAAAAAHHHHH!!!!
Missing juggernaut twice with nightcrawlers power cuz ur zooming around randomly and he's running
Lol or thinking ur about to clear the field only for nightcrawler to hit 2 sentinels...
This was released on Xbox live arcade on the Xbox 360 with options to play the 4 player, 6 player, english, and japanese versions as well. So it did eventually make it to consoles.
Is it available on the Series S/X?
@@IrishKyokushin I have no idea, since the 360 was the last Xbox console I've had, but I doubt it. Liscensing and whatnot.
I owned it, and enjoyed the port for many years. Unfortunately, it’s been delisted, so I can’t even access the game I paid for 😢
I had fun getting those Trophies. 👍
@@powerfilter777 At least there's still emulation.
I will never forget playing the 6 player X-Men in the arcade at the mall attached to the food court as a kid. Epic. "WELCOME TO DIE!!"
P.S. I love how the voice of Wolverine is Australian in the Pryde pilot, then Hugh Jackman ends up with the role. A bit of foreshadowing I'd say.
Also, in a long awaited clap back to this game, in Marvel Vs. Capcom 3/Ultimate Marvel Vs. Capcom 3, as you know, Magneto said, in the game in this video, "X-Men, welcome to die". However, if you put Deadpool against Magneto, one of the quotes that he says is, "Magneto, welcome to die". Now, the fact that this is obviously a long awaited response from Capcom to Konami about that game is patently obvious, but what makes it more humorous, as well as ironic, is that Deadpool was ALSO a member of the X-Men himself.
Just imagine being 8 to 12 years old, and you walk into the arcade room and see this monstrous cabin for the first time it blew your mind away... game is awesome, one of the best next to tmnt
Took my weekly allowance every time
Yeah this thing was a behemoth back in the day! So fun to play on that huge arcade machine as a kid. Cool that it’s playable on one screen for MAME since I only ever saw the 2-screen setup.
I think that was the Deluxe Cabinet that had 6 player setup.
This is definitely one of my all-time favorite beat-em-up arcade games
So hard to find. Still too this day, I don't think I've emulated it. Like what system even runs it. 🤷
@@dmo848 it used to be released on 360/PS3 back then now it's been taken off the market due to licensing let along with a few more other games we enjoy playing smh
11:52 - the attention to detial with Nightcrawler teleporting safety after the fall is a nice touch
Man, I LOVED playing this game at Haunted Trails (Chicago suburbs)! This game, the Capcom arcade game The Punisher, and the Data East arcade game Captain America and the Avengers were all awesome!
5 iconic X-Men, and Dazzler.
Instead of Phoenix, Rogue and Shadowcat… They gave us friggin' Dazzler…
😑 -> 😒 -> 🙄
Her power wasn't too shabby, though.
The version we had at our local arcade had storm instead of dazzler
That little detail when they were falling when night crawler telephoned to avoid hitting the ground is everything.
I have this on my Xbox 360, and from Arcade1up 3/4 scale home arcade cabnet. Always loved feeding this game quarters when I was a kid playing it in the arcades.
"A succulent Chinese meal"
😂😂 Great work Top Hat. I'm sure that reference was missed by a lot of viewers here.
Used to love playing this game which was a 6 player 2 Screen Cabinet at the Tilt! Arcade in Saint Louis MO back in the 90s and early 00s
Man, I played it at the Tilt, too. I was hyped when I went through and saw it there, I was like "wuuuuut?" lol.
Lee and Kirby would have been proud to hear your narration of this old school gem. Well done.
I'm sure Claremont and Byrne would have been even more proud
Because they wrote the X-Men back then? Fair, but I was referring to the narration stye, that bombastic, over the top excited tone that was so characteristic of the older guys. @@emanueljackson1728
It's definitely on my bucket list to play through the entirety of the X-Men arcade game on a six-player machine with five of my friends. I've only had once opportunity to play the 4-player cab, and it was awesome, but it's been ages.
Used to play this on the way out of Super K Mart with my brother lol. I got it on my snes mini too.
One of my all-time favorite arcade games! 😁
Also, I believe that the Arcade 1UP comes with the Avengers arcade game.
Arcade 1UP seriously helps the nostalgia of my Childhood.
This is by far the most detailed description of a side scrolling beatem up. Well done
*presses Colossus' mutant power button
RAWWWRRRR
Huge fan of the X-Men and Beat 'Em Ups so this is heaven sent. Now I'm going to cover one of their themes immediately. It looks so fun
This Xmen, TMNT turtle in time, and The Simpson was godlike back then in arcade
I'm so glad my arcade has the X-men arcade game
I have this game on my PS3 (that Simpsons Arcade, Scott Pilgrim, and TMNT: TiT Reshelled) and it's one of the few reasons I still play my PS3.
Me and my Uncle spent so many quarters on this game at Myrtle Beach when I was a kid. Great memories.
At Magfest, this game was in the arcade section. For some reason the volume was really loud, so when Colossus did his special, you could hear the roar throughout the hotel. There is a rule that you can’t do the roar because it could disturb the other hotel guests.
Even when it was originally in the arcades it was like that. You could always hear it at the other side of the arcade.
We had an arcade in my town and it was 5 floors up in a building downtown. As soon as you get to the top of the steps there was a glass double door and right when you walked in to the right was a 6 man X-Men cabinet. Sadly it closed in 2005 but the 10 years before that was awesome. That place had everything but the X-Men Arcade game was my favorite.
As a 13 year old boy I actually wrote Konami begging them to release this game for the SNES. The actually wrote me back saying they weren’t going to .
I fortunately bought the X-Men arcade game on Xbox 360 when it was available. And it's still installed on my 360. Fun game, still. The thing that I remember the most about the game in arcade was... the fact that in the 3rd stage Nightcrawler's "mutant power" would frequently get me killed due to the teleport spam stopping over a pit. That, and the voice lines. Such as Magneto saying "Welcome to DIE", and "I am Magneto, master of Magnet". Not that I ever got far enough personally to experience that, but I watched others do so.
You knew you were in a real arcade if this was on the floor!👌
Hearing collosus yell AHHHHH as i walked into chuckie cheese was the highlight of my day. Take my tokens
This is why I love the new Handheld PC’s cause I’m able to play these games whenever I want. Cadillacs & Dinosaurs, Die Hard, The Simpsons, TMNT, X-Men Vs Streetfighter and many more games that I grew up playing 🤘🏾🔥
This was on the apple app store a long time ago
If only they done a game just like this but set in the AOA universe :), thank you dude, keep up the good work yeah :)
i remember as a youngster expecting xmen the arcade and the simpsons arcade games to get home ported to the super nintendo but never did
YES! This TMNT and the Simpsons game ruled the arcade back in the day.
It sucks we had to wait for the 360 to get the arcade X Men game at home but I am glad we got the 2 Genesis games
We?, i played xmen arcade on a modded og Xbox😂
As a child i played xmen on the nes on an 8 inch black and white TV with a really fuzzy signal. Still better than most gaming now.
I remember playing this at South of the boarder in 91 when my family and I were driving back to Philly some south or North Carolina and nightcrawler was my go to. In Jan 2011 I brought it and Simpson for 10.00 each! So glad to have them in my ps3 and look back at my childhood! Thanks for this video !!!
I remember walking into the arcade at laurel mall back in the day and this game was always in the front. Loudest game in the arcade. Line of people waiting to play. Miss those days
Succulent Chinese meal 😂 impressive deep cut
I have very fond memories of playing this with my bro whenever we went anywhere with arcades.
We had the 6-player version at our arcade and were friends with one of the managers, so we got unlimited plays whenever we wanted because they were making bank on SF2. The chaos of 6 players using their super simultaneously was so incredible. Top 5 arcade beat em up all time.
this game was released on xbox live for xbox 360 and i played it as a kid at arcades, absoultely LOVE this game
This is a true classic!!! I love this game!!! The Avengers game on console was pretty good too!!!🔥🔥
X-men arcade, Turtles in Time, The punisher with Nick Fury, The simpsons game, kids today will never know how much joy a pocketful of quarters can bring you.
You forgot ALIENS with Ridley and Hicks.
@@Filthy_Larry didn't get a chance to play that one, but I do remember Ninja Gaiden in the arcade and that was a dream. Not to sound old but nothing beats a school field trip to a place that had an arcade, Go-Karts, and mini-golf in the nineties.
When I was little you couldn't tell me Colossus mugant power wasn't spontaneous combustion. I loved this game
I always played Nightcrawler as i loved his zipping around special move.
Definitely one if the most fun and greatest arcade beat em ups Top Hat ...i never beat it in the Arcades when i was young but always enjoyed playing it at my local pizza hut 😆..beat it once it came to home consoles years later as an adult
Konami blew their chance to give us a home console version of X-MEN (as well as The Simpsons) & made the ham-handed decision to hand off the rights to LJN/Acclaim. 😫
It would’ve probably happened if X-MEN and The Simpsons kept their Konami licenses in the 2000s like how TMNT did.
It took $5 dollars for me to beat it as a kid. Which seemed like a lot to my young mind. But I felt so good leaving the arcade that day.
Im glad i got it downloaded on my ps3. Just did a 6 player paythrough a few months back. Love this game.
This brings back memories! Would love to see Dotemu do a version of this game
I was thinking the very same thing. They definitely did the TMNT justice and I bet they could do the same for the X-Men (with a bigger roster).
@@zombieboyfiend Absolutely! TMNT and Streets of Rage 4 are fantastic! Already imagining the extended roster being unlockables, maybe the bad guys being DLC
Do the X-Men: Legends, Marvel: Ultimate Alliance, and LEGO Marvel Super Heroes video games not fill that void?
@@paxhumana2015 Nope!
Un tremendo señor clásico de clásicos este Game 🤩🤗😎!!!!!!
The bowling alley near my house had this game when I was a kid. I remember everyone always fighting over the characters they wanted. I was the youngest so.I always got stuck with Dazzler. Her attack was OP tho so joke was on them.
I would lead a team with cyclops. We would talk like we were x men. When it was time, I’d tell the team to back up as I’m about to beam Blob. Soon as he’s down, I order colossus to punch him. Soon as blob stands up again, I tell Wolverine to unleash. Then we all give out mutant powers and fk shyt up.
Those were the days man. Online gaming just isn't the same.
I still have this on my Xbox 360. I pop it out and play with my kids once in a while.
I am of certain years and I miss the arcades dearly.
"Alas, that was Mystique, not Magneto. Magneto is in another place. *GO!* "
Actually, this game DID receive home ports, twice, actually. I think that it was a PSN and Xbox Live release for the PS3 and Xbox 360, albeit with some alterations. The PSN release was worldwide on December 14, 2010, and the Xbox Live release was on December 15, 2010.
I remember this machine always had a long line back in the day.
Hey, Top Hat Gaming Man. You should definitely do a video on Battle Circuit. It was Capcom's last beat 'em up they released for the arcade and its only came out in Japan and Europe in 1997. Too bad it didn't get a release on any video game console until the release of Capcom Beat 'Em Up Bundle in 2018 on modern consoles (PlayStation 4, Xbox One, PC and Nintendo Switch) for the first time. Would you mind doing a video on said game?
I was unfortunate that I didn't really have an arcade near by as a kid. I do remember a X-Men game on the Megadrive/Genesis. It was a platform/beat em up. Was hard but I enjoyed it.
I'm so sad I missed when this game came out in 2010 I had no idea😢 I love this game as an arcade
Magneto was the king of trash talk.
"Magnets!!" - Magneto
I remember seeing this six player arcade cabinet at Canada's Wonderland Arcade!! OMG it was the best,,... Killer instinct and mortal kombat right near it :) - mmmmm
The Nintendo Entertainment System version of the Uncanny X-Men was a major disappointment to me as a child because i wanted the Arcade version at home so bad 😢😢.
Uncanny X-Men was released before X-Men Arcade…
… and it wasn’t a good start…
The other magical thing about this era was $5 and your parents dropping you off could give you hours of entertainment. Nowadays $5 can't even get you lunch at a cheap fast food restaurant.
Man! I played this in Chuck E. Cheeses almost every time lol
Master of magnetism? You mean MASTER OF MAGNET!!!
My cousin have the Arcade version at his house!
In the comics, The Dinobots get their alt modes from The Savage Land
Best episode yet!
These used to be all over the place in California. I remember the tvs we're not always lines up perfectly or had the same colors over time lol this was annoying when walking across the screens or being half way in one screen and the other. I did not know x men and I remember I could just never get into it. I played it rarely. I also remember no one ever wanted to be the silver guy, he was always available lol everyone wanted to be Wolverine, nightcrawler, cyclops.
Top Hat Gaming Man welcome! To Entertain!
I miss Muppet babies! And Crime fighters is a underrated arcade Gem 💎
The 80s, 90s cartoons were all like candy.
Konami made some strange decisions
I remember hearing stories and on one awesome field trip I got the chance to play this gem everyone didn’t give a damn about the game but I cared a lot actually and downed all of my tokens and had the time of my life playing solo ^^
lol was j7st playing this yesterday, still fun to play
Best arcade games were X-Men, Captain America and the Avengers, the Simpson’s and TNMNT. All of those games used to have lines with people waiting to play.
This actually came on the PS3 online, along with The Simpsons arcade game!
I was always a huge cyclops fan as a kid and he was always available as kids wanted to be colossus, wolverine, storm and nightcrawler....nobody ever wanted dazzler
6:40 No.. the MASTER... OF MAGNET!
I stay play this on my 360, $2.99 Xbox Black Friday sale years ago.
It may have underground caves, but it never had the - almost mandatory - 'sewer level'
Was there an official reason given as to why the game wasn't released from home gaming systems?
i bet it was about licensing
Miss those days
every arcade i went into always had the 4 player version
It was on the Xbox arcade back in the 360 days.
HEY!!! I still have this on my PS3!
This game no joke, would have made serious bank if they ported this game on the PS1 back in the 90s. having marvel and Konami split the roytalies.
Thank you Margret! LOL
Still hope that they port this to evercade, the dd2 arcade is awesome there.
Too effing bad it wasn't released on SNES and Genesis back then!
Nice video game steam
Please do videos on the 2 dungeons & dragons arcade games, the bouncer, urban reign, mortal kombat shaolin monks, scott pilgrim vs the world game, dragon's crown, & mighty morphin power rangers mega battle
I still have this game on my ps3
I think I have this in my PS3… need a cabinet!
This game was so fun.
I wish they would give this the shredders revenge revamp. I’d pay good money
Aladdins castle 🏰 was my spot to go play games on Saturdays. 5 dollars got you 30 tolens 😂
