Alien vs. Predator by Capcom is often overshadowed by bigger licenses, but it’s one of the most polished arcade brawlers ever made, blending gunplay with melee combat. It also never received a proper home port at the time, making the arcade version the only way to experience it for years.

Ghosts ’n Goblins by Capcom is infamous for its brutal difficulty, forcing players to beat the game twice to see the true ending. Its mix of platforming, projectile combat, and memorisation made it one of the most challenging arcade experiences ever.

If SNK had the Neo Geo AES, Capcom had the CPS Changer. Both were designed to let people enjoy arcade games at home, but unlike the AES, the CPS Changer wasn’t really built as a traditional home console from the ground up. In many ways, it felt more like an official supergun made by Capcom themselves. It even supported the Super Famicom CPS Fighter stick. A lot of people had the chance to experience MVS hardware thanks to the AES, but the CPS Changer was much rarer, so not many people ever got to see one in person. When you first connect it to a TV, the controller gives off a bit of a Super Famicom vibe, but once the game starts, the polished graphics and incredible sound immediately make it clear that you’re basically playing real arcade hardware at home.

I played an arcade version of OutRun for the first time ever today! It took a minute to get used to the motion and wheel, but I eventually took the top spot on the leaderboard!🥰🏁 #OutRun #SEGA #Arcade

Happy birthday, Bubble Bobble! It was released exactly 40 years ago today, on June 16, 1986. The arcade version was absolutely brilliant, being one of the first games to have a coop-multiplayer option. It was also one of the the most ported arcade games in history, with over 20 ports to home computers and consoles, including even the legendary TI-84 Plus (primarily a calculator). The port that got the highest praise and came closest to the original arcade experience was the C64 version. Excellent graphics, one of the most recognizable tunes , and great gameplay make Bubble Bobble a timeless classic. My brother and I played the crap out of this one back in the day, and we still load it up on my old C64 when he comes for a visit. It's like riding a bike, you never forget how to play Bubble Bobble.

After Burner II by Sega pushed arcade tech with its Super Scaler hardware, delivering fast sprite scaling that made dogfights feel intense and cinematic. The moving deluxe cabinet added to the immersion, making it a full sensory arcade experience.

Maybe inspired by the synergy between the PlayStation and Namco’s arcade-compatible hardware, Sega also developed the Dreamcast and NAOMI together to make arcade-to-console ports much easier for their own games. Because of that, it wasn’t the massive leap that Model 3 had been, but it still ended up getting a huge variety of games from not only Sega, but many other companies as well. Popular titles like Marvel vs. Capcom 2 and Capcom vs. SNK 2 were also NAOMI-based games. What was disappointing, though, was the irony that Virtua Fighter 4 never came to the Dreamcast and was instead released on the PlayStation 2.

It will never cease to amaze me that Creative Assembly, a studio best known for making strategy games has not only made the best Alien game, but also one of the best horror games of all time.

Alien vs. Predator (Capcom/1994) was a major arcade success, both commercially and critically. It's widely celebrated as one of the greatest beat-'em-ups of all time. Despite its massive success, licensing complexities kept it trapped in arcades for decades. Fun fact: Lt. Linn Kurosawa was referenced or made cameos in Street Fighter games.

The X68000 was one of the best home computers for enjoying classic Konami and Capcom arcade games. Its hardware was so powerful that, aside from the Neo Geo, it was virtually the only system capable of delivering near-perfect arcade conversions at the time. Unfortunately, it was extremely expensive and sold exclusively in Japan, so very few people ever had the chance to experience it. Even today, decades after its release, the quality of its games is still incredibly impressive. Ghouls ’n Ghosts is a perfect example. Compared to the Mega Drive and PC Engine versions, the X68000 port is on an entirely different level in terms of accuracy and overall quality. It’s still amazing to think that a game this good could fit on just two floppy disks.

Final Fight (1989) by Capcom defined the modern beat ’em up formula with its focus on grapples, weapon pickups, and character variety across Cody, Guy, and Haggar. Its gritty Metro City setting and tight co-op gameplay made it one of the most influential arcade titles ever.

HANGZO is an unreleased arcade prototype, reminiscent of The Ninja Warriors or Hagane. Developed around 1992, its exact origins are a mystery because there is no proper credits, though it runs on Data East arcade hardware, making it the most likely candidate. It was recovered and preserved thanks to the emulation community.

There were three Capcom games that always made me think, “Why was this never released on consoles?” Those games were The Punisher, Cadillacs and Dinosaurs, and Alien vs. Predator. Thankfully, The Punisher was included in Marvel vs. Capcom Fighting Collection: Arcade Classics, so it can finally be enjoyed on modern consoles. But the other two are still unavailable due to licensing issues. Hopefully, those problems get resolved someday so they can also be released on modern consoles.

Arcade hack 'n' slash brawlers, fantasy-themed. Subgenre of weapon-based combat, here showing the scrolling beat 'em ups. GOLDEN AXE by Sega is probably the most popular and well known. But Capcom did an incredible run in the 90's that included 2 official D&D games. Hack 'n' slash *platformers* would be yet another branch.

SkyGunner arrived on PS2 in 2001 and quietly disappeared. Developed by former staff from the original Ace Combat team, it traded realism for a world inspired by European adventure anime. Despite selling poorly, it remains one of the purest examples of arcade-style aerial combat on the system, and many PS2 owners have never even heard of it.

During Round 1 of TV Time, it is possible to end the cooking minigame early by getting the popularity meter to max. However this does not apply to the arcade version of the minigame.

Did you know that Time Crisis 5 can be played natively on PC despite never having received a home version? That's because the Arcade version is just an Unreal Engine 3 game running on Windows, and the best part is that it can be played with a mouse.

Capcom Q-Sound QSound is a spatial audio technology developed by QSound Labs and famously used by Capcom in many of its arcade games starting in the early 1990s. It simulates 3D positional audio using stereo speakers, creating a more immersive sound experience.
