    Good-
    A lot of the games hold up well. Options to make the game more accommodating to modern audiences are appreciated. Games run well
    Bad- If you have no interest in arcade games there is not much here for you. A fair few of the games do not hold up well at all. Mainly only valued as time capsules for old games Thoughts- So, yes – if you’re an enthusiast of the medium, or a fan

    So, yes – if you’re an enthusiast of the medium, or a fan of Capcom’s arcade glory day? Capcom Arcade 2nd Stadium is well worth your time, and I would say it’s worth it to check out most, if not all, of the games. A lot of them may not have held up as well, but even they hold some value as a sort of time capsule. Video games have come a long way since the heyday of the arcade – but that doesn’t mean we have to forget the medium’s roots, after all. Capcom certainly isn’t.

    Not a bad successor to the previous title, Capcom Arcade 2nd Stadium delivers yet another batch of renowned classic arcade games. It delivers perfect emulation and a number of modern-day improvements. Maybe a couple of fighting games could have been left out in favour of something different, but there is no doubt anyone can find at least a few games up their alley in this collection.

    A superior collection to the first Arcade Stadium, this is an excellent way to revisit 8 your youth and/or discover quality games that you never knew existed. [Issue#18, p.91]

    Capcom brings us back, once again, to the golden age of arcades with another collection of authentic old-school coin-op games that delivers more than we expected.
