Classic SNK Arcade Machine Now Available for Pre-Order
The 1990s was an era that gave rise to some of the best arcade games ever made and popularized many iconic franchises. This was when arcades were at their peak, and now fans of retro games can put their money towards reliving those glory days, because the SNK MVSX Arcade Machine is now available for pre-order on Amazon.
Originally slated to launch sometime in October, the Amazon listing states that it will now launch on November 24, priced at $499. Based on the classic NEOGEO MVS arcade cabinet, the MVSX will come with 50 retro titles from SNK’s library, including ten King of Fighters games, eight Fatal Fury games, six Metal Slug games, and six Samurai Shodown games.
Like the original MVS, the base unit of the new machine will sport joysticks and buttons for up to 2 players, only this time the buttons will be programmable. Aside from that, the SNK MVSX will come with a 17-inch 1280x1024 LCD screen, stereo speakers, a backlit marquee, and a USB port, in addition to a 32-inch stand for those who want to play standing up like in the 90s.
Similarly to other retro game collections, the MVSX will sport a few useful bonus features, like an AES/MVS mode switch option that will let users play either the arcade version or console port for each game. Additionally, players will have the option to switch the visuals between a standard perfect-pixel mode and a scan line mode designed to emulate the MVS cabinets’ CRT displays. All in all, it sounds like quite a solid package for retro arcade enthusiasts.
The SNK MVSX Arcade Machine launches on November 24.
