Fighting game fanatics, prepare to unleash your inner Ryu or Chun-Li because the dream of having your own arcade cabinet just got way more real.
Iconic Arcade, in partnership with tech giant Medion AG, has unveiled the Street Fighter™ XXL Arcade Machine. This is an absolute beast, powered by a Raspberry Pi 5, and ready to bring the classic arcade experience right into your living room.
(Given that Medion AG is owned by Lenovo, one wonders why it is relying on a Raspberry Pi 5 rather than its own hardware…)
This isn’t your average mini-arcade, as it is almost full size. The Street Fighter XXL boasts a 9/10 scale replica design, perfectly capturing the nostalgia of those iconic full-sized cabinets we all loved. But fear not, it still fits comfortably in your home thanks to its optimized footprint.
Here’s why this machine will have you throwing down like it’s 1991:
- 14 Classic Games: Featuring exclusive, fully-licensed Capcom titles, you’ll have a library of fighting action to master.
- Choose Your Warrior’s Den: Two stunning artwork options – Street Fighter™ Alpha 2 and Street Fighter™ II: The World Warrior – let you customize the look of your machine.
