At E3 this week, Arcade1Up revealed their upcoming products for the fall, which included a "Marvel Heroes" game and a "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles" game. The highlight announcement, however, was a four-foot high version of Atari's vector-based "Star Wars" game that was a mainstay in video arcades in the 1980s. The cabinet will also include the follow-up games Atari released to complete the trilogy: The Empire Strikes Back," and "Return of the Jedi."
Representatives from Arcade1Up reportedly told E3 attendees that the game will sell for "under $500 retail" and will be available in November. The cabinet will feature a backlit marquee, a recessed screen, stereo speakers underneath the marquee, and a "Flight Yoke" controller just like the one on the original arcade game.
Twitter user @cooltoy_23 posted these pictures of the cabinet online.
Ordering information will be available soon.
