Since it's part of their "Premium Edition" line, I would've been surprised if it weren't the original. I'm happy that they're taking this new approach lately.
Let's see how the Tiny Arcade could do there actual SF2 arcade, there are multiple version of S60/Jar/Java they could incorporate. There is SF2CE that has easy special moves and auto block, then there is another SF2CE that need to do the actual motion inputs.
@@GenXGrownUp Aah, I did wonder why it looked so nice. That explains a lot. Hopefulyl they consider Mortal Kombat too. But TBH, I would like some later racing games, Virtua Racing or Ridge Racer Etc. that kind of era.

Thank you for watching, Darren. This one is maybe not quite as awe-inspiring as the Space Invaders, but still mighty cool and a good purchase for your collection.
@@GenXGrownUp If I'm buying a physical unit I like it to have something emulation alone can't do. I picked up the tiny arcade q bert as it had a rotated joystick, great detail. But if I could get a chase hq with flashing police lights, hell yeah!!

Great review, you have cleared all my doubts about this mini arcade and now I am going to acquire mine, since I am a Street Fighter fan, thank you and congratulations for the video!
The anticipation and wait for this game took so long(for me) that I went out and started building an Arcade1up arcade in my basement! I blame Covid! haha But this game, and particular the MyArcade experience is what fueled it all!
@@GenXGrownUp Hey Jon! Well I have you to give a big thanks(and my wife to blame lol) for really igniting and kick starting it all. Always been a 80's fan growing up in that decade and just holds a special place in my heart. I started and planned(initially) to make a mini homage to 80's gaming with the My Arcade collecting. Well that didn't scratch my itch too long and while waiting for the My Arcade Street Fighter II for so long, I made an impulse buy when I see the Arcade1up Street Fighter II Championship Edition on clearance on Amazon. While waiting for shipping and heading to BestBuy to get a riser, the Pacman 40th Edition Arcade1up magically ended up in back of my car! 😅 Well I knew my 100% or nothing gene would kick in and then led to Golden Axe 4 player, NBA Jam, Outrun, and Attack from Mars and Star Wars virtual pinballs now make up my current(shhh don't tell the Mrs). Still got space for more but don't want to wedge them in side by side, because my take is you really have to showcase the beautiful side art on these cabs. Now with the help of cool modern lighting, doing some cool led strips and bulbs lighting, all programmable. My wife even fed the addiction last week on my bday ordering me a custom arcade sign, I legit cast iron full size gumball machine, and Pacman shirt...so she's on board now! I'm officially calling it the SHarcade. It's been a blessing during covid and once all the naysayers walk through the door, the are lost within 2 minutes of retro gaming. It's also so amazing seeing my two nephews(7 & 9) getting to taste what we all got to experience in the 80's. Galaga has become my nephews new favorite game and he has access to Nintendo Switch, Xbox, and tablets...which warms my heart to see just how great those games still hold up. And there's something magical to see my 70 year old mom and 9 year old nephew grinning ear to ear while gaming.
A better and more thorough review of this product, there just is not. You knocked this one out of the park. And the unit is no doubt cool. SF2 is always gonna be in my top 5 arcade games all time, even though it was 90s and not 80s.
For the price they should include more than one ROM. It looks amazing but I own so many copies of this game already. I’ll wait to see if it ever goes on sale.
@@GenXGrownUp hey I wanted to tell you I finally got this one at target store at Christmas time and I absolutely loving it my friend it's just like playing it on the SNES , Genesis , Arcade etc ...
Wow this is so cool. I don’t know if you got my other comment but I have an arcade 1up street fighter and it’s really similar other then it being so small. Thank you for the great review!!
Ya I really like it and I think I got it around last year but I’m not completely sure on that. It’s holding up pretty good and I really enjoy playing it.
Great video! I’ve been doing some research on this product before I purchased one. Your video helped a lot, thanks for a great insight. My purchased arrived today and I think its great. I have also seen your other video about the defect on some of the controls, altho not an issue that Im concerned nor does it bother me that much, I did also found that at some points when you forward jump and push all of the Kick buttons, the action performs a Punch instead of Kick! Not sure if other users experienced this issue too. Overall Im very impressed, aswell as being a huge SF2 fan, this is also a great addition to my SF collection! Thanks for this upload and keep up the great work! 👍
Thanks for watching and I'm happy I was able to help. And you're right, many comments in that control defect video describe a number of odd combinations that yield unexpected results. Either way, still a pretty cool toy.
Is there any modifying videos on UA-cam about this mini cabinet to add more arcade fighting games like mortal kombat etc. Maybe one that adds a flashdrive usb port to transfer games. Also add controller support by adding more usb. Even take it a step further and add a light gun to it so when u install shooting arcade games on flashdrive. It can play on this mini street fighter cabinet. Duck Hunt especially.
Looks like the front of this machine has 2 screws, right on the sides - would taking these out allow modding of the buttons/joystick? Don't believe any of the other My Arcades had these. Would be interesting to look at in a future video!
The myarcade ones have two screws on either side too. But i can't get mine Galaga one apart. The fire button on mine is jammed down too much, i need to tweek the spring. But i can't get it apart.
Excellent review that was worth the wait! I’m still really tempted to get this as it still looks very fun to play despite the less than ideal controls. And here’s hoping the MA Premium line continues. If they do more Capcom properties my vote would be for Strider or one of the 194X titles!
Would be easier to find a small semi-thick piece of metal to glue down on the inside to give the unit more weight. I really hope My Arcade does a Rampage unit. Would love that.
@@GenXGrownUp Why wouldn't it be easy? A medium-sized steel 1" thick block of metal glued down on the bottom should give it more mass to cut down on the movement.
@@Phaota Don't makes leaps of logic or assumptions. I didn't say it would be difficult. I said it wouldn't necessarily be easier than other solutions. There are definitely easier ways to mitigate the mass problem worth exploring before I try to cut a thick piece of steel and open the device to mount it!
@@GenXGrownUp No, you said "I'm not certain that would be easier", not "wouldn't necessarily be". Either way, you don't have to cut a block of steel. Should be quite simple to find one in the right thickness and size online for cheap to whatever dimension the interior area is and opening the back again (like you did in the other video where you moved the buttons around) is simple as well. But, if you know of another way to give the unit some bass heft, then that's cool too. :)
OK, I know what I typed and I'm not interested in splitting semantic hairs with you. Finding and installing an appropriately-sized 1" thick block of steel is one possible solution, and I feel it is not the simplest. That's all.
Oh man, they finally released it! I quickly checked the price for this and on the My Arcade website, it says 49.99 (US dollars I'm guessing) but anywhere else, the prices are all over the place. So I guess maybe it'll be 69.99 CAD? I dunno, but I waited a while for this to hit the shelves.
Bought one on accident as an impulse buy (because it had the wrong tag) and was going to return it, but you and others have made me change my mind. The Target price of $59.99 does seem pretty steep, though, and the thing was there for months it seemed...
It don't have a way to add more games to the mini cabinet. When I bought it. I taught it would have usb option to plug a flashdrive in it. To run emulator games.
@@GenXGrownUp I hope someone could purchase one of these to modify it to run emulations and add more games. Even add the adult arcade games. The dark side of arcade.(Hxxxxx) Or just add Mugen games. Usb port needed to be install and a few other stuff. I could really use a tutorial video about this version cabinet moding right now. I am subscribed now.
Not so much the Basic Fun version (Genesis w/o blood code), but I'd agree than a cabinet like this with the arcade ROM of UMK3 would be an insta-buy for me!
@@GenXGrownUp it just bums me out that the chose the Genesis one rather than the arcade one. For the Genesis the least they could have done was keep the blood and fatality code intact as a concession for making it kid friendly.
@@marccaselle8108 The brutal irony is, today's kids are eviscerating one another in MK11, yet the pixellated fatalities of MK1 were considered too gruesome for a Walmart release? Yeesh! 😁
I’m planning on getting this one soon. I think the controls wouldn’t bug me too much because I’ve played quite a bit of fighting games on the Neo Geo mini. Hopefully My Arcade does more with their license with Capcom, personally I’m hoping for a mini cabinet of Final Fight!
Oh, damn. Final Fight in this exact same cabinet mold? F*$K YEAH! 😁 No need for the quarter circles or quick direction changes like SF2, so that would be an instant slam dunk. P.S. I'm a Haggar guy all the way.
@@GenXGrownUp Exactly, it would also be emulating the same arcade hardware as well, so it’s something we know they can do. Honestly it’d be an instant slam dunk for My Arcade!
@@Ultraslainmonkey and they could still capitalize on the CO/VS link-up gimmick. Can't get to three (without some new hub logic), but two is better than one!
@@GenXGrownUp Also with Final Fight, the 2 player cabinets were actually far more common (presumably because they were cheaper), so honestly it all would still work out really well!
Great review. If they keep using arcade roms they will sell better. Now, if they get the license for the arcade games wwf superstars and wwf Wrestlefest, then I'll blow my money.
Indeed, Marc. Thanks for watching. I'm sure most of us have those golden ticket games that can suck the money right out of our pockets no matter what the release! 😊
That would have definitely helped. And since it's not necessarily a perfect machine replica (like New Wave or Numskull), it would've been fine as far as aesthetics.
The way you feel about Guile is pretty much the same way I feel about Sagat. That guy is so cheap with his Tiger Uppercuts that it can sometimes feel like an exercise in frustration fighting him. Especially on the higher difficulty settings. The swearing I does when I am in the midst of a long losing streak against him simply must be heard to be believed haha ;-)
I can definitely relate! I never found Sagat to be as frustrating as a high-difficulty Guile, but he is pretty cheap. 😊 Thanks as always for watching, lynchie!
@R listen kid , i probably was playing street fighter when u was still in diapers . For sure guile is the easiet character in the game. Just do a dragon punch infront of him and he will whiff a hurricane kick. Then whoop that ass as he coming down
I have looked at a few of those >100 game units, and so far they've been universally unimpressive. * ua-cam.com/video/5WhLrHrB6DQ/v-deo.html * ua-cam.com/video/CYz4iNhdxto/v-deo.html
Gotta say, I have always been bit "against" these kind of mini arcades that have fighting game as fighting games are best played with friend (for the same reason I think the Japanese version of Neo Geo Mini is much worse than the international version). But I did not know you could link these up and because of that, I might actually consider this.
It's really not bad. Be sure to be aware of the controller logic problem I exhibited in a follow-up to this review. If that's a deal-breaker for you, you might consider the Replicade version (ua-cam.com/video/sBGCULqnf8Y/v-deo.html ) which provides for multiplayer on a single unit with an included second controller. Thanks for watching! 😀
I was considering buying 2 for after parties in my friend’s house but knowing how drunk people can be, I’ve decided not to. Still considering buying one but not for drunk people. 😆
Happy holidays i was in the thought as a fan of the entire series to get one of those! Is it worth it? Since it is something that is mostly a novelty item i believe!
Bought mine at target with out even looking for it was the last one on the shelf. Luckily I have the street fighter collection that came out in 2019 so this little arcade is only for display Jejejeje
I gotta say this thing controls really well for a loose ass joystick . Lot of idiots put super strong springs in their sticks thinking it will make them better but it’s actually worse for street fighter . Strong springs is only good for games like pacman and Frogger. In street fighter , u want super loose springs because of the complex movements
I could not find this at any of the targets i visited. I even checked the walmarts nearby just to be sure since they usually carried my arcades but with the way they were stocked it looked like they don't even carry them anymore. so I just resorted to buying it online. The amazon page has it listed as unavailable for as long as when they made the announcement on twitter, so that didn't help. honestly, i've been wanting an SFII cabinet for a long time and this looks like it will suffice. it'll look great next to the other minis I have.
They seem to really be in short supply at the moment, but they just launched so I expect a re-stock is coming shortly. It's a fine unit; I don't think you'll be disappointed.
@@GenXGrownUp New subscriber here. You're welcome. Could you recommend to My Arcade (coz' we dont have the clout, power/influence to influence them X-D) to also make the Micro edition compatible as a controller for PCs and consoles (including retro consoles if they can, like Dreamcast) macOS, Windows, Playstation, Switch, etc. via Wifi or Bluetooth (it may need a dongle for retro consoles) whichever produces less lag and for fighting games there can be a joystickless version (all buttons like the ones used by the best Street Fighter Pro gamer in history- Daigo). Thank you, merry Christmas still (a 12-day season ending in early January) & happy new year. See you all in heaven (and in gaming heaven as well) Revelation 21:4 :-)
Very cool looking piece. But I wish we could move past SFII. This would've been an instainstant buy from me if it was SF Alpha 1 or 2 or any version of SFIII.
I get the sentiment, Juan. This is the one I most played in the arcade, though, so as a choice for a release it really hits me right in the nostalgia feels. I'm guessing you spent more time with Alpha and later, yeah?
About time MyArcade bring in an arcade rom to their mini SF2 arcade, I thought it would be an SNES rom, but glad they bring in an arcade entry. Hope they keep on doing it to make up for those lazy non-arcade ports from their other mini cabinets. Otherwise, they’ll only be worth it for arcade display, but TBH, the tiny arcade versions still have better displays of the cabinets.
@@GenXGrownUp ah, okay. Thanks for the corrections. ^.^ Well, gonna check those two out. Also, I do hope they still keep on doing this with their upcoming entries. Other than just display, I want a mini that has the exact arcade rom. Basically, good for those that want a decent arcade cabinet like the ones from Arcade1up, but are on a tight budget. 👍
I can't speak for other reviewers, but I chose the character because it's so widely popular, and therefore more viewers would have familiarity with the character's behavior.
Kudos to you! It looks fun to play. I think myarcade is really pulling through! Let's hope for more cool versions like ninja turtles 1989, or even mortal kombat.
As an owner of one I have to disagree with your impressions about the controls. The problem is that you are reviewing to soon. It takes a bit but you get used quite good to the controls. And I'm a big guy.
I'm quite glad it's working well for you. I expect you're right that if I spent a concentrated chuck of time using only this device I would certainly get used to it. However, because I put my hands on dozens of different systems regularly, when one is distinctly different or problematic, I like to call it out. Thank you so much for watching and taking the time to comment. 😀
Finally! My arcade got my interested collecting! With these Premium Editions- Street Fighter II and Contra- Its going to get better! Now they have a good molding for these two, a Horizontal and Vertical screen, they will build more games around it. I can't stand console games in an arcade cabinet. It just doesn't do the justice.
It's a real step up. There is a minor controller logic glitch (you can see that detailed if you watch my follow-up video) that I didn't notice at the time of review, but for me it's not a deal-breaker. Still a very nice unit.
There's always glue. That would connect it to your computer pretty well. 😜 Seriously, though, to do what? There aren't any external expansion or connectivity ports that would allow interfacing to another device outside of the Co-Op/Vs. Link.
I got this amazing product. Now, the controls? Huh, am I the only one who never had any issues with the Joystick? It was doing exactly what I wanted it to do...... hahahah
"The joystick feels good..." From the video it seemed like the worst part about it, to be honest. Forward direction on the stick in particular seemed defective. It's no wonder you had such difficulty pulling off the dragon punch.
A lot of users felt the stick was too loose, and while it felt fine to me, it is a bit looser than I'd probably like it to be. It still made my top 10 list, though, despite its shortcomings: ua-cam.com/video/VTuXb3eL74s/v-deo.html
@@GenXGrownUp guile says it when defeats you, its a streetfighter quote i thought you wouldve been seeing it alot lol. surely its not different quotes on american version
@@MrTusk-lv2cf Dang it, Mr. Tusk! What a great reference and it went completely over my head! I was so busy angrily smacking the "start" button to continue that it didn't register with me. LOL!
Chiming in I picked one up and it's a great presentation however, the controller is awful. If there's an upgrade, mod or replacement it would be highly appreciated.
By controller do you mean the joystick or the entire control assembly? I have heard that many owners have placed a stronger spring in it to make it stiffer and that reduced the floppiness.
@@GenXGrownUp apologies for the late reply. I meant the joystick. To execute a fireball or dragon punch is just really difficult and it's not as springy or responsive.
Hi @GenXGrownUp am I imagining things, or did I see at 8:03-4 when you do jump forward strong, you got a jump forward jab instead? I asked because I am having the same "defect" when I hold my joystick at up+right position and press strong (medium), I got jab(weak) instead. Same thing when I hold my joystick at down+right, pressing forward(medium) will give me a short(weak). I think it is a weird connection problem, but all other directions and button combinations are fine... can you confirm it is only me that have the defective unit? Thanks in advance.
Could it make much of a difference on the moving on the table issue if you put a good amount of velcro on each side, stick it all together on something like thin ply board, and put a few weights on each end of that board?

A better and more thorough review of this product, there just is not. You knocked this one out of the park. And the unit is no doubt cool. SF2 is always gonna be in my top 5 arcade games all time, even though it was 90s and not 80s.
Thanks for your kind words, Emceemur. An endorsement from you is worth its weight in gold!
I'll probably just use some double sided tape and secure that sucker to the desk
Good plan.
A wet rag under the unit would probably help with the sliding
I put some little rubber feet on it which helps, but it's still a bit light to grip the table.
For the price they should include more than one ROM. It looks amazing but I own so many copies of this game already. I’ll wait to see if it ever goes on sale.
They raised it to 60 from 50 ,factory can’t keep up production. It’s beautiful the joystick is the only issue but still works
They should include a USB port to use a gamepad. As much as I love these things, the controls are always too small to enjoy playing them.
It's even more affordable now. Under $40 on Amazon: amzn.to/2ZDW4xU
@@GenXGrownUp hey I wanted to tell you I finally got this one at target store at Christmas time and I absolutely loving it my friend it's just like playing it on the SNES , Genesis , Arcade etc ...
@@josephwilliams710 Thanks for the update - glad you're enjoying it! 😀
Wow this is so cool. I don’t know if you got my other comment but I have an arcade 1up street fighter and it’s really similar other then it being so small. Thank you for the great review!!
Thanks for watching, Ethan. You like your A1U version? I've heard pretty good things about it. How long have you had it? Is it holding up well?
Ya I really like it and I think I got it around last year but I’m not completely sure on that. It’s holding up pretty good and I really enjoy playing it.
Great video! I’ve been doing some research on this product before I purchased one. Your video helped a lot, thanks for a great insight. My purchased arrived today and I think its great. I have also seen your other video about the defect on some of the controls, altho not an issue that Im concerned nor does it bother me that much, I did also found that at some points when you forward jump and push all of the Kick buttons, the action performs a Punch instead of Kick! Not sure if other users experienced this issue too.
Overall Im very impressed, aswell as being a huge SF2 fan, this is also a great addition to my SF collection! Thanks for this upload and keep up the great work! 👍
Thanks for watching and I'm happy I was able to help. And you're right, many comments in that control defect video describe a number of odd combinations that yield unexpected results. Either way, still a pretty cool toy.
Is there any modifying videos on UA-cam about this mini cabinet to add more arcade fighting games like mortal kombat etc. Maybe one that adds a flashdrive usb port to transfer games.
Also add controller support by adding more usb. Even take it a step further and add a light gun to it so when u install shooting arcade games on flashdrive. It can play on this mini street fighter cabinet.
Duck Hunt especially.
google.com 😉
Looks like the front of this machine has 2 screws, right on the sides - would taking these out allow modding of the buttons/joystick? Don't believe any of the other My Arcades had these. Would be interesting to look at in a future video!
I like it, Dan. I have a small project in mind, so I just may be dismantling it soon. Thanks for the suggestion.
The myarcade ones have two screws on either side too. But i can't get mine Galaga one apart. The fire button on mine is jammed down too much, i need to tweek the spring. But i can't get it apart.
@@GenXGrownUp my guy said "sure"
Excellent review that was worth the wait! I’m still really tempted to get this as it still looks very fun to play despite the less than ideal controls. And here’s hoping the MA Premium line continues. If they do more Capcom properties my vote would be for Strider or one of the 194X titles!
Replicade is doing the 194X titles....
@@darnellhagood1052 Nice, thanks for the info 👍
If they'd ever ship it, yes. 😉
OK? I knew about this unit, but I didn't know that it was a MyArcade release? Interesting. :)
Would be easier to find a small semi-thick piece of metal to glue down on the inside to give the unit more weight. I really hope My Arcade does a Rampage unit. Would love that.
I'm not certain that would be _easier_ , but certainly another option to give the unit some more heft. Thanks for watching!
@@GenXGrownUp Why wouldn't it be easy? A medium-sized steel 1" thick block of metal glued down on the bottom should give it more mass to cut down on the movement.
@@Phaota Don't makes leaps of logic or assumptions. I didn't say it would be difficult. I said it wouldn't necessarily be easier than other solutions. There are definitely easier ways to mitigate the mass problem worth exploring before I try to cut a thick piece of steel and open the device to mount it!
@@GenXGrownUp No, you said "I'm not certain that would be easier", not "wouldn't necessarily be". Either way, you don't have to cut a block of steel. Should be quite simple to find one in the right thickness and size online for cheap to whatever dimension the interior area is and opening the back again (like you did in the other video where you moved the buttons around) is simple as well. But, if you know of another way to give the unit some bass heft, then that's cool too. :)
OK, I know what I typed and I'm not interested in splitting semantic hairs with you. Finding and installing an appropriately-sized 1" thick block of steel is one possible solution, and I feel it is not the simplest. That's all.
Now that's killer! On a vetrex no doubt, awesome.
Thanks for watching, Jason!
Oh man, they finally released it! I quickly checked the price for this and on the My Arcade website, it says 49.99 (US dollars I'm guessing) but anywhere else, the prices are all over the place. So I guess maybe it'll be 69.99 CAD? I dunno, but I waited a while for this to hit the shelves.
Good luck locating one. They're as rare as hen's teeth right now. I was lucky to snag one.
Bought one on accident as an impulse buy (because it had the wrong tag) and was going to return it, but you and others have made me change my mind. The Target price of $59.99 does seem pretty steep, though, and the thing was there for months it seemed...
Just paid $69.99 🇺🇸 dollars
My friend has the massive version of it. Really fun and its the original arcade.
Nice. An original, or do you mean the Arcade1Up? Either way, hours of fun, I'm sure. 🤜🤛
@@GenXGrownUp Arcade1up. She definetly cant afford a true machine.
Seems like there's a tad bit Screen Tearing there.
I didn't notice any tearing in person, so it may have been a combination of angle and shutter speed.
It don't have a way to add more games to the mini cabinet. When I bought it. I taught it would have usb option to plug a flashdrive in it. To run emulator games.
Sorry it wasn't what you were expecting. Make sure you subscribe so you will see my review videos before your next purchase! 😀
@@GenXGrownUp I hope someone could purchase one of these to modify it to run emulations and add more games. Even add the adult arcade games. The dark side of arcade.(Hxxxxx) Or just add Mugen games. Usb port needed to be install and a few other stuff. I could really use a tutorial video about this version cabinet moding right now.
I am subscribed now.
The basic fun Mortal Kombat machine should have a co op/vs cable link for 2 players.
If they used the arcade ROM I would have bought it.
Not so much the Basic Fun version (Genesis w/o blood code), but I'd agree than a cabinet like this with the arcade ROM of UMK3 would be an insta-buy for me!
@@GenXGrownUp it just bums me out that the chose the Genesis one rather than the arcade one. For the Genesis the least they could have done was keep the blood and fatality code intact as a concession for making it kid friendly.
@@marccaselle8108 The brutal irony is, today's kids are eviscerating one another in MK11, yet the pixellated fatalities of MK1 were considered too gruesome for a Walmart release? Yeesh! 😁
@@GenXGrownUp that is the height of irony.
Putting batteries in it makes it stay down and feel right .
Mine had batteries in it when recording the review, and it was still a bit light for how rowdy I get on SF2. 😉
Imagine those buttons on the regular MyArcade micro players
Indeed. Amazing upgrade opportunity!
I love guile!! He was whippin dat azz tho ! 😛
Dammit! Then you would've been the guy stomping me in the arcade. Every good Guile player I ever came across absolutely had my number!
@@GenXGrownUp Haahaahaa....you got that right my brother! 😀 Sonic boom and back fist, reverse kick dizzy on ya !!
@@broccolihart1 Yep, that's the move! 👊
I’m planning on getting this one soon. I think the controls wouldn’t bug me too much because I’ve played quite a bit of fighting games on the Neo Geo mini. Hopefully My Arcade does more with their license with Capcom, personally I’m hoping for a mini cabinet of Final Fight!
Oh, damn. Final Fight in this exact same cabinet mold? F*$K YEAH! 😁 No need for the quarter circles or quick direction changes like SF2, so that would be an instant slam dunk. P.S. I'm a Haggar guy all the way.
@@GenXGrownUp Exactly, it would also be emulating the same arcade hardware as well, so it’s something we know they can do. Honestly it’d be an instant slam dunk for My Arcade!
@@Ultraslainmonkey and they could still capitalize on the CO/VS link-up gimmick. Can't get to three (without some new hub logic), but two is better than one!
@@GenXGrownUp Also with Final Fight, the 2 player cabinets were actually far more common (presumably because they were cheaper), so honestly it all would still work out really well!
I'm 46 and just bought the same game but I don't want to open it. I'll probably buy another one to play
Just open it carefully. It can be replaced in the packaging for shelf display very cleanly.
This thing is way better than arcade1up countercade .
Interesting. What criteria are you basing that on?
Great review. If they keep using arcade roms they will sell better. Now, if they get the license for the arcade games wwf superstars and wwf Wrestlefest, then I'll blow my money.
Indeed, Marc. Thanks for watching. I'm sure most of us have those golden ticket games that can suck the money right out of our pockets no matter what the release! 😊
@@GenXGrownUp I wish when they did the my arcade mortal Kombat that:
1. Arcade roms of mortal Kombat 1 and 2.
2. Instant win 🙂
They should have just angled the attack buttons so your hand didn’t have to be directly in front and instead could be slightly off to the side.
That would have definitely helped. And since it's not necessarily a perfect machine replica (like New Wave or Numskull), it would've been fine as far as aesthetics.
The way you feel about Guile is pretty much the same way I feel about Sagat. That guy is so cheap with his Tiger Uppercuts that it can sometimes feel like an exercise in frustration fighting him. Especially on the higher difficulty settings. The swearing I does when I am in the midst of a long losing streak against him simply must be heard to be believed haha ;-)
I can definitely relate! I never found Sagat to be as frustrating as a high-difficulty Guile, but he is pretty cheap. 😊 Thanks as always for watching, lynchie!
@@GenXGrownUp No problem. And thank you for always putting out great content. Can't wait for the next one.
U people r morons . Sagat and guile r the most fun cpu opponents . So easy . The hardest frustrating opponents is Vega , E honda, sometimes blanka
Difference of opinion is welcome. Childish name-calling? Cut it out.
@R listen kid , i probably was playing street fighter when u was still in diapers . For sure guile is the easiet character in the game. Just do a dragon punch infront of him and he will whiff a hurricane kick. Then whoop that ass as he coming down
Damn I wish I had one of those style but I'm happy with the one I got.
Yay, I'm buying it just now @Target 👊 #YouWin
LOL! I hope you enjoy.
Maybe if the buttons were angled for ergonomics? Unfortunately, that would mess with the authentic arcade aesthetics. Rock + Hard place.
Indeed, Allen. I think MA probably made all the right decisions considering the size limitation. It was just a Kobayashi Maru of design.
What if the buttons slid out into an angled position while it was played.
Just got one, my mom give me one as a gift!
Very cool.
have u tried the My Arcade, arcade machine with 200 games there is also one with 300 games but im pretty sure u can only find it online
I have looked at a few of those >100 game units, and so far they've been universally unimpressive.

* ua-cam.com/video/CYz4iNhdxto/v-deo.html
Modder's delight
Very likely so!
Gotta say, I have always been bit "against" these kind of mini arcades that have fighting game as fighting games are best played with friend (for the same reason I think the Japanese version of Neo Geo Mini is much worse than the international version). But I did not know you could link these up and because of that, I might actually consider this.
It's really not bad. Be sure to be aware of the controller logic problem I exhibited in a follow-up to this review. If that's a deal-breaker for you, you might consider the Replicade version (ua-cam.com/video/sBGCULqnf8Y/v-deo.html ) which provides for multiplayer on a single unit with an included second controller.
Thanks for watching! 😀
Dam Gaël Always good 😊
Thanks for watching!
I would suggest you pick up this one rather than the new wave one because it offers more portableity options and it is also much more affordable
I have both, and on the New Wave, at least all the buttons do the right things! 😉
looks cool
I was considering buying 2 for after parties in my friend’s house but knowing how drunk people can be, I’ve decided not to. Still considering buying one but not for drunk people. 😆
I grabbed one because they were only $9 at target. Wish i had bought 2
Nine bucks?! Damn! What a fantastic deal. Clearance, I'm guessing?
@@GenXGrownUp well it said $35 but rang up as $9
I would only buy one when I'm in my office shaming lol
Who are you shaming?
Happy holidays i was in the thought as a fan of the entire series to get one of those! Is it worth it? Since it is something that is mostly a novelty item i believe!
It's not perfect, but certainly one of the better in the line. You can see my Top 10 right here: ua-cam.com/video/VTuXb3eL74s/v-deo.html
It's kinda like the Arcade 1UP version of this Arcade Model because it's the same thing
CE is the same. Doesn't the A1U version have multiple titles available?
@@GenXGrownUp Nope
@@Erikgamer1123 I was being polite. It does. 😜 Street Fighter II CE, Super Street Fighter II, and Super Street Fighter II Turbo.
@@GenXGrownUp Oh yeah, they also have those on PS4, Xbox One and Nintendo Switch, I tried it out with a fightstick and it felt comfortable
Bought mine at target with out even looking for it was the last one on the shelf. Luckily I have the street fighter collection that came out in 2019 so this little arcade is only for display Jejejeje
Congrats. They've been pretty hard to come by.
Sho Ryu Ken!
⬇️↘️➡️🤜
thanks
You're welcome!
I gotta say this thing controls really well for a loose ass joystick . Lot of idiots put super strong springs in their sticks thinking it will make them better but it’s actually worse for street fighter . Strong springs is only good for games like pacman and Frogger. In street fighter , u want super loose springs because of the complex movements
I agree with u 100%. I find the joystick to be very good and responsive. A lot better than RepliCade. It really does feel like playing on an arcade.
I see a lot of comments from viewers who don't like the tension of the stick, but I found it to be fine.
This things pretty awesome.i love it. I don't have any issues
That's great to hear.
I could not find this at any of the targets i visited. I even checked the walmarts nearby just to be sure since they usually carried my arcades but with the way they were stocked it looked like they don't even carry them anymore. so I just resorted to buying it online. The amazon page has it listed as unavailable for as long as when they made the announcement on twitter, so that didn't help.
honestly, i've been wanting an SFII cabinet for a long time and this looks like it will suffice. it'll look great next to the other minis I have.
They seem to really be in short supply at the moment, but they just launched so I expect a re-stock is coming shortly. It's a fine unit; I don't think you'll be disappointed.
would be amazing if it had a HDMI output for a TV and 22 USB ports for external controllers
22? 😲
@@GenXGrownUp sorry i meant 2
@@Bananabomb-ww5hv Ah-haha! That makes sense. You were making me think of the Polybius USB hub! 😁
Great review! Do you have a link for your awesome t-shirt by the way? Thank you!
Thanks, Gregory! I've gotten lots of compliments on the shirt. It was an exclusive from Geek Fuel, and it pops up on eBay every once in a while.
Cool, I wish you could use the controller for the Mac, PC and other video game consoles using wifi or bluetooth.
God bless.
That would be cool! Thanks for watching. 😀
@@GenXGrownUp New subscriber here. You're welcome. Could you recommend to My Arcade (coz' we dont have the clout, power/influence to influence them X-D) to also make the Micro edition compatible as a controller for PCs and consoles (including retro consoles if they can, like Dreamcast) macOS, Windows, Playstation, Switch, etc. via Wifi or Bluetooth (it may need a dongle for retro consoles) whichever produces less lag and for fighting games there can be a joystickless version (all buttons like the ones used by the best Street Fighter Pro gamer in history- Daigo).
Thank you, merry Christmas still (a 12-day season ending in early January) & happy new year.
See you all in heaven (and in gaming heaven as well) Revelation 21:4 :-)
Very cool looking piece. But I wish we could move past SFII. This would've been an instainstant buy from me if it was SF Alpha 1 or 2 or any version of SFIII.
I get the sentiment, Juan. This is the one I most played in the arcade, though, so as a choice for a release it really hits me right in the nostalgia feels. I'm guessing you spent more time with Alpha and later, yeah?
Agreed 100% on SFA.
I’m going to try getting this
It’s on sale $20 off
Make it happen! amzn.to/3FTHIc4
About time MyArcade bring in an arcade rom to their mini SF2 arcade, I thought it would be an SNES rom, but glad they bring in an arcade entry. Hope they keep on doing it to make up for those lazy non-arcade ports from their other mini cabinets. Otherwise, they’ll only be worth it for arcade display, but TBH, the tiny arcade versions still have better displays of the cabinets.
This is their third release with a genuine arcade ROM. Both the Space Invaders (sort of) and the Contra included one.
@@GenXGrownUp ah, okay. Thanks for the corrections. ^.^ Well, gonna check those two out. Also, I do hope they still keep on doing this with their upcoming entries. Other than just display, I want a mini that has the exact arcade rom. Basically, good for those that want a decent arcade cabinet like the ones from Arcade1up, but are on a tight budget. 👍
I love this unit so much I made my own video.
That's cool
Can't wait for them to make Marvel vs capcom
Oh, the licensing is probably a headache.
Got it love it!
Awesome! 🤜🤛
Nice one... I have held off hope to get at 39 vs 49$
Thanks, and good luck, Glen. They're so rare right now that they're being scalped on eBay, so I don't expect the price to drop in the near term.
I need it ... that's my love
Make it happen!
Hey Jon Street fighter two by Capcom is my favorite
Cool. 🤜🤛
Amazing how all SF2 demos or videos most people always only play Ryu or Ken as if they are the only playable characters.
I can't speak for other reviewers, but I chose the character because it's so widely popular, and therefore more viewers would have familiarity with the character's behavior.
Man you're so lucky! Had you pre-ordered it? I might have to wait a bit till it becomes available in my region.
I was lucky, but not due to a pre-order. Visited a Target while in Central Florida and found the last one on the shelf.
Kudos to you! It looks fun to play. I think myarcade is really pulling through! Let's hope for more cool versions like ninja turtles 1989, or even mortal kombat.
If you can’t Dragon Punch, you can’t win. PERIOD!
Now we need a USB port so we can use an actual controller.
Great review really looks great. Hope they make a turtles version
Thanks, Oscar. I haven't seen anything new in the My Arcade pipeline for some time, unfortunately.
As an owner of one I have to disagree with your impressions about the controls. The problem is that you are reviewing to soon. It takes a bit but you get used quite good to the controls. And I'm a big guy.
I'm quite glad it's working well for you. I expect you're right that if I spent a concentrated chuck of time using only this device I would certainly get used to it. However, because I put my hands on dozens of different systems regularly, when one is distinctly different or problematic, I like to call it out.
Thank you so much for watching and taking the time to comment. 😀
Finally! My arcade got my interested collecting! With these Premium Editions- Street Fighter II and Contra- Its going to get better! Now they have a good molding for these two, a Horizontal and Vertical screen, they will build more games around it. I can't stand console games in an arcade cabinet. It just doesn't do the justice.
It's a real step up. There is a minor controller logic glitch (you can see that detailed if you watch my follow-up video) that I didn't notice at the time of review, but for me it's not a deal-breaker. Still a very nice unit.
Is this available in stores in the US? Great review and I’ve been waiting for this one!
Yeah, Brandi. It's being carried by Target stores in the U.S. That's where I found mine. Thanks for watching!
In which model do one get the close to real arcade cabinet feeling? My arcade Premium or the pro one unit?
This Premium edition by far. 🙂
wondering if you can connect the console to your computer? lol this is cool i will get one for sure
There's always glue. That would connect it to your computer pretty well. 😜 Seriously, though, to do what? There aren't any external expansion or connectivity ports that would allow interfacing to another device outside of the Co-Op/Vs. Link.
Hey Jon did you know that I have a Nintendo 3DS
I do now!
I got this amazing product. Now, the controls? Huh, am I the only one who never had any issues with the Joystick? It was doing exactly what I wanted it to do...... hahahah
Great! Did you get it recently where the buttons are already in red/white/blue order, or an older release?
@@GenXGrownUp the red/blue and white order. Exactly what you have. I Still played it for hours and no issues on the controls.
"The joystick feels good..."
From the video it seemed like the worst part about it, to be honest. Forward direction on the stick in particular seemed defective. It's no wonder you had such difficulty pulling off the dragon punch.
A lot of users felt the stick was too loose, and while it felt fine to me, it is a bit looser than I'd probably like it to be. It still made my top 10 list, though, despite its shortcomings: ua-cam.com/video/VTuXb3eL74s/v-deo.html
holy smokes lol damn thats cool. go home and be a family man 😆 ask them to make a outrun micro arcade with the wheel and high/low shifter..
Not sure I get the "family man" reference, but I agree it's quite cool, Tusk.
@@GenXGrownUp guile says it when defeats you, its a streetfighter quote i thought you wouldve been seeing it alot lol. surely its not different quotes on american version
@@MrTusk-lv2cf Dang it, Mr. Tusk! What a great reference and it went completely over my head! I was so busy angrily smacking the "start" button to continue that it didn't register with me. LOL!
How do you like gameplay on this compared to the Replicade?
With the slightly cramped spacing here and the bug we discovered in the control logic, I have to say the RepliCade is the clear winner.
Love your videos. How long do you need to charge this unit and how long can you play fully charged??.
Thank you, Daniel. No charging time at all; it uses batteries so you can just swap 'em out.
Chiming in I picked one up and it's a great presentation however, the controller is awful. If there's an upgrade, mod or replacement it would be highly appreciated.
By controller do you mean the joystick or the entire control assembly? I have heard that many owners have placed a stronger spring in it to make it stiffer and that reduced the floppiness.
@@GenXGrownUp apologies for the late reply. I meant the joystick. To execute a fireball or dragon punch is just really difficult and it's not as springy or responsive.
Hey Jon would you please review the super impulse tiny arcade Frogger
I may do that one soon. Thanks for the suggestion.
Guile busted that azz...😂
Yup.
Hi @GenXGrownUp am I imagining things, or did I see at 8:03-4 when you do jump forward strong, you got a jump forward jab instead? I asked because I am having the same "defect" when I hold my joystick at up+right position and press strong (medium), I got jab(weak) instead. Same thing when I hold my joystick at down+right, pressing forward(medium) will give me a short(weak). I think it is a weird connection problem, but all other directions and button combinations are fine... can you confirm it is only me that have the defective unit? Thanks in advance.
I'm going to investigate this right now and see what's up. Thanks for the heads-up.
@@GenXGrownUp thanks for investigating this!
Investigation complete: ua-cam.com/video/5a4XMd1FyTM/v-deo.html
@@GenXGrownUp thanks for the investigation! Will check later!
I'm sorry, but I enjoyed watching guile beat the crap out of you. Great review. Thanks I may pick one up
Understandable. 😉
Could it make much of a difference on the moving on the table issue if you put a good amount of velcro on each side, stick it all together on something like thin ply board, and put a few weights on each end of that board?
You're on the right track, Trevor. Anything that would help stabilize it would be great. Magnets, velcro, tape, a lead weight. 😊
If you're moving the unit that much while playing, then you're playing it wrong.
"Playing it wrong?" Hilarious.
