New Wave Toys is creating a line of mini arcade machines that are 12-inch replicas of classic arcade cabinets called RepliCades.
Starting with RepliCade X Centipede and RepliCade X Tempest, these replicas are officially licensed, fully-playable, 1/6 scale versions of the original cabinets. More are to come, including Street Fighter II: Champion Edition. Each cabinet comes with specific features to make it look and feel as similar to its larger design as possible.
RepliCade X Centipede, which is officially launching today, features a tiny trak-ball to control the game just like it was back in the 80’s, comes with super small arcade tokens, a 3.5” vertically oriented color screen and more. It does carry a hefty price tag of $160 US, so arcade fans might want to start saving up their quarters now. It is available to purchase on New Wave Toys’ website, and is coming soon to Amazon, Walmart and Best Buy.
