Arabian Arcade Marquee
One of the classics that we never really got into as a kid. Always appreciated the the art on the cabinet though. Check out the marquee HERE in our store, and a play through below:

This is a pretty interesting one…. Ninja Baseball Bat Man, only a couple of these arcades made it out, right as the arcade industry was starting to tank. We were fortunate enough to get an original scan from Quarterworld in Portland. They have one of the few actual games that exist, and furthermore, one of the few that the public can go and play.

Definitely one of the best shoot em ups of all time. All of the Raiden games combined satisfying controls and power ups with a high level of difficulty and challenging bosses. Super fun to play, and still super affordable. For now that is…

AvP was one of our favorite games growing up. Slightly more advanced with move combinations than the rest of the side scroller beat em ups such as Simpsons and X-Men. Not to mention the Big Blue arcades at 7-Eleven were beautiful in an intimidating sort of way. This particular game in the Northwest is still affordable. Last couple ones have sold for around $600 on Craigslist. Wouldn’t be surprised if they jumped up in price though.

We always like seeing some nice Neo Geo arcade marquees, and recently Chris from Mobius Strip Technologies was kind enough to send us some of our marquees mounted and looking great! Apparently Chris’s first arcade was a Neo Geo, which is awesome because it was our first too. Hard to beat the selection and variety you can get from the MVS system, and the feel of having one of those fatty carts in your hand. Thanks again Chris!
We FINALLY found a good scan of Soul Calibur 3. Check it out in our store HERE.
X-Men vs Street Fighter Arcade marquee. One of the better fighting titles to come out of the CPS2 system. Still sells for a reasonable price too, usually around $150 on eBay. Reasonable considering a Hyper Fighting or Championship will run $250+. Check out the marquee in our store HERE.
Loved this game as a kid. Turns out the arcade is waaaay more difficult. Always liked the way the cabinet looked, and as of late, they’re getting harder and harder to find. At recent Captain’s Auctions in California, dedicated Punchout cabinets were going for as much as $1200. Check out the marquee in our store HERE.
Robocop arcade marquee by Data East. Always liked how this looked in a curved Dataeast marquee holder, but man are those a pain when the plexi breaks. Gameplay on this one was pretty weak, especially for such a badass movie, but hey, what are ya gonna do. Check the playthrough below, and the marquee in our store HERE.
For one reason or another, Soul Calibur Marquees have proven particularly hard to get good scans of. We were only able to source one after looking for months! Check it out in our store HERE.
