Arcade1Up’s Deluxe line is the next obvious step, a one-body cabinet that stands slightly taller than a standard cabinet with a riser.

They were a bit shorter than necessarily comfortable, which is why the company eventually included risers that lifted the machines to a height that could let most adults easily play while standing. With any luck, the reboot will be something that gamers can enjoy universally – one with modern graphics that's engaging, fun to play, and has a quality storyline.Arcade1Up started the current home arcade machine craze a few years ago when it released slightly scaled-down, stand-up arcade cabinets at relatively low prices for home play. Instead, fans got a 30th anniversary bundle that was lame by most standards.Ī reboot of a fighting game is a bit tough for me to relate to simply because I never played Mortal Kombat, Street Fighter II, or any fighting game for the storylines but I understand that's not the case for everyone. NetherRealm had the perfect opportunity to drop a reboot last year for the series' 30th anniversary. If the latest teaser is taken at face value, it'd be the second reboot for the series. In 2011, the series was rebooted and continued, albeit at a slower pace than before. Several mainline and spinoff games were delivered through the end of the 90s and throughout the 2000s. The pump had been primed and developers ran with it. By the following summer, Mortal Kombat was the second top-grossing arcade game behind NBA Jam. Gamers couldn't funnel the quarters in fast enough.

Mortal Kombat landed in arcades on October 8, 1992, with highly polished graphics and record levels of violence and gore.
