Critic Reviews for Capcom Arcade 2nd Stadium
Capcom Arcade 2nd Stadium shows that Capcom has created so many memorable arcade games that it takes more than one collection to hold them.
As long as you're okay with its unreasonable lack of online functionality and screen filter niggles, there are hundreds of hours of fun to be had with Capcom Arcade 2nd Stadium. 32 mostly excellent games and another historically notable preservation piece, it recalls the essence of what an arcade felt like. Achieving that feeling, however brief, will be enough to justify a purchase for those with an affinity for gaming's rich history.
Capcom Arcade 2nd Stadium is a beautifully presented package which includes a decent strike rate of two thirds bangers to a third of borderline unplayable turds.
A collection of 32 games that has both historical value and current fun (as most of the titles have aged very well). The emulation is perfect and has many display options and unlockable elements. Its value, of course, depends on how nostalgic we are.

A worthy follow-up to the original coin-op collection but the selection of games never feels quite as varied or vital, and the continued lack of museum features is a shame.
Overwhelmed by the usual fate of melancholy and study of the classics, it is easy to be enchanted by the retro-summer of Capcom. Dozens of games, lots of good choices and a system that works. Although it is not clear why change the name and arcade, compared to the first Arcade Stadium.

Impressive efforts with a few noticeable problems holding them back. Won't astound everyone, but is worth your time and cash.
Another wonderful retro compilation from Capcom. It's sorely lacking in supplementary behind-the-scenes content, and it's a shame it couldn't have just been a big DLC pack for the first Arcade Stadium, but what's here is a nice, varied selection of vintage coin-op titles.
