    Capcom Arcade 2nd Stadium does little to outsmart its first edition. It has more fighting games, and good ones too than the first one, but nothing that we didn’t see in other Capcom compilations (and with more stuff) for the system, but It's still a great way to play the classics you miss so much, with online challenges, unlockables and light to the pocket, since you can purchase the games individually for a cheaper price. Oh, and Mega Man The Power Battle 1 and 2 are finally playable on the Switch.

    Arcade 2nd Stadium doesn’t feel as necessary as its predecessor, where buying all of its 32 games gave you an astounding compilation, possibly the greatest-ever arcade collection of all time.

    The first Capcom Arcade collection had a ton of great games and although some were repeated, most were original.

    The 2nd Stadium is really bad value for Capcoms loyal customers who have already bought the Beat em up bundle, Fighting Collection and 30th Anniversary Collection as only half the games are new. While you can buy the few games you are missing on their own, the price is double the separate purchase price of the first stadium games meaning that you could quickly spend more than the price of the whole pack leaving owners of other collections with no reasonable option.

    If you don't already own any of the games already on switch and are buying the full pack, then you can double my score but, this one is still no where near as good as the first.

    Capcom should have offered some sort of discount to owners of previous collections.

    This is another great collection of Capcom classics. The genre range here is maybe not quite as well balanced as the original Arcade Stadium,This is another great collection of Capcom classics. The genre range here is maybe not quite as well balanced as the original Arcade Stadium, but there are plenty or really engaging titles in here that are still great fun to play today. The ability to tweak everything about each game in the options menu is very much appreciated, and the rewind and slow down features are also very helpful when playing through some of the more difficult games in this collection. My only complaint is that at full price this title is a bit expensive, but I bought it at 25% off and this seems like a fair price. I'm also wondering if we will ever see Alien vs Predator, Marvel vs Capcom, Cadillacs and Dinosaurs, and UN Squadron in any of these Stadium packages? Full Review »
