Capcom Home Arcade Is a Plug-And-Play Stick With Games
A new mini console that’s a little different from the rest.
Capcom has released its own version of Nintendo and Sega‘s mini consoles in the Capcom Home Arcade, a plug-and-play system with classic arcade games built inside it. The duel arcade stick includes 16 games built inside with a relatively similar arcade set up for each, and the games are playable once the stick is plugged into a TV via HDMI and powered via USB. The arcade stick also has online capabilities, as it is able to connect to Wi-Fi and rank global leaderboards online.
Capcom states the stick features “a pair of competition class Sanwa JLF-TP-8YT sticks with 8-way GT-Y directional gates and OBSF buttons for the finest precision, response times and durability. The 16 pre-installed games are from the original Capcom CPS1 and CPS2 arcade ROMs with emulation provided by FB Alpha, delivering an authentic and accurate arcade experience exclusively for the Capcom Home Arcade.”
