Jun 1, 2021If want to get back to your arcade roots and experience some of Capcom’s exemplary arcade games spanning over three decades then Capcom Arcade Stadium is a no-brainer. The quality of life additions allow players of all skill levels to enjoy the games, and the multiple leaderboards for each game will have the veterans competing for fame and glory. Some audiovisual galleries would have been nice, but as long as Capcom stays active with challenges and hopefully adds more games then the Stadium will remain standing room only for some time to come – but really how else would you play at the arcade?

Jun 2, 2021Capcom Arcade Stadium at its best brings the spirit of arcade gaming to a global online setting, providing the atmosphere of walking into a bustling amusement centre, with plenty of incentive to dive into the various titles and pursue a high score worth bragging about. The titles featured here are iconic Capcom classics and cover a range of genres and gameplay styles, and they all benefit from modern quality of life features.

Jun 3, 2021Besides the disappointing lack of online, the game is a pretty big compilation of classic games with a lot of variety for its price. The point and leveling system helps to give you something to play for other than simply beating each game, which I found to be a nice touch overall.

Jun 8, 2021It’s no easy task to give a clear-cut opinion about this compilation. On one hand, we cannot deny the efforts made to pay a tribute to Capcom’s history thanks to the modelled original arcade machines, the unique interface, the new and quite well-made instructions and the numerous settings available. On the other, it’s hard to forget the remaining problems that any serious player could’ve found during the first playtest. This evolves into a form of frustration in seeing a product that had everything to become a premium competitive basis for the players, but which will stay a tiny nostalgic amuse-bouche… Until the next one.
