ロックマンシリーズ&ストIIシリーズ収録!カプコンの新ゲーム機「RETRO STATION」正式発表&予約開始!
Product

Since the " NINTENDO CLASSIC MINI Famicom" ( NES ) was released in November 2016, many manufacturers have been releasing smaller versions of their classic game consoles with multiple games.
The affordable price range and the exquisite selection of game titles included in the game collection make it a great item to purchase, and combined with the memories of playing the games in real time, it is a very satisfying experience that is more than worth the price.

Many of them are designed to be connected to a TV or monitor, but some, such as the " NEOGEO mini " and the " Astro City Mini, " which was just released on December 17, 2020, are based on a game arcade cabinet and feature a controller and a display. Some of them are equipped with a controller and a diplay and can be played by themselves by supplying power.

Now, Capcom is introducing a new product in this category.
Capcom has announced the "RETRO STATION," a new console that will include the "Mega Man" and "Street Fighter II" series.

The official announcement of "RETRO STATION" is now in full swing!

When I saw "RETRO STATION ", I thought, " Hey, where have I seen this before? Where have I seen this before? ", but that's as it should be.
This is the product that a certain e-commerce site had previously mistakenly published a product page, and the information was spread.
I'm sure everyone was wondering if it was going to be released, but this is finally the official announcement! I'm glad it was announced properly!
Let us introduce you to the product!

The monitor's CRT TV-like design, blue base and yellow coloring, and overall rounded shape look vaguely familiar, don't they?
As you may have guessed, the "RETRO STATION" is inspired by the Mega Man design!
It is an excellent design and would look great as an interior decoration.
RETRO STATION" is designed and manufactured by TRON under license from Capcom. Ltd. will be responsible for sales.

Mega Man & Strike II included!

The most important part of this type of game console is the game titles it contains.
Most of the mini-game consoles that have been released so far contain a large number of game titles, but to be honest, there are many titles that you don't play, aren't there?
In that respect, "RETRO STATION" has 10 titles! And they are carefully selected from the "Mega Man" series and the "Street Fighter II" series, both of which are representative of Capcom!

You can connect it to the "RETRO STATION" and play with two players, but the screen is small, so you will need to output the video and audio from the HDMI port on the "RETRO STATION" to a TV or monitor to enjoy the game on a large screen. This is the same as conventional mini-game consoles, isn't it?
RETRO STATION" has another unique way to play games.
