For old school SEGA fans, before their entry into the (and then exit of) console market, the company had always been about arcades and still are. The latest entry is a licensed Mission: Impossible game that hos now begun shipping its Deluxe cabinets around America and Europe. SEGA’s arcade division isn’t a stranger to using licenses to create high quality arcade experiences since they’ve also made games based around Die Hard, Rambo and even recently Transformers.
Mission: Impossible Arcade description:
“Agent, your mission should you choose to accept it, is to save the world by sabotaging enemy plans that aim to weaponize humanoid robots. You will have a range of weapons and high-tech gadgets at your disposal to complete your mission but remember time is not your side. Sega brings the multi-billion dollar blockbuster film franchise MISSION: IMPOSSIBLE to the amusements market. SEGA’s Mission: Impossible Arcade is an adrenaline-fueled video game, that is the pinnacle of great design and entertainment. The awe-inspiring 4 player Super Deluxe Attraction cabinet is designed to look like the IMF (Impossible Mission Force) safe house and features the iconic fuse along with various interiors details that convey the feel of a top-secret high-tech spy hideout.”
The cabinet is sporting an all-new dual pistol controllers, next generation 4 player attraction cabinet design, 9 stages and even includes two 55″ HD screens! According to Arcade Heroes, each deluxe cabinet is set to cost between $15-17K! Not cheap!
SEGA Amusements is also set to release the following titles, beginning to ship in March:
Maybe arcades aren’t dead, at least yet.
