The marvel vs capcom2 one
Why are cabinets so expensive?
I get they are bulky and licences exist but how do like 15 games make a 200 euro price increase
If a new video game console is $500, a full size piece of furniture with custom art and a video console inside it sounds like a bargain for $600.
Not sure if that’s a good parallel.
The hardware in a console and a cabinet are very different
Yeah, the hardware in a console is mass produced, the hardware in an arcade cabinet is made in relatively small batches. Mass producing something is always a lot cheaper per unit due to economies of scale.
Depends on when it was made. A modern, multi-game cabinet could run entirely on a Raspberry Pi and cost far less to build than a console.
