Store in QC this past weekend had Street Fighter and Centipede for $75, that's the cheapest I've ever seen in Canada or the US.

Wow - great deal if you can get that.

Still no word on wave 2 ever coming to Canada... :(

Got an email from 1up announcing preorders for a Marvel cabinet with Marvel Super Heroes, Amen children of the atom and Punisher. This limited edition has Sanwa hardware, riser and a light up marquee. No idea on the price or if they ship to Canada.

Seems like they finally adjusted their amazon.ca prices -- from the reviews, it was > $550 before. Looks like they have all of the wave 1 cabinets available. Tastemaker listings are still out-of-this world on all the arcades (> $1000 + > $1000 shpping).

Those were 3rd party sellers when it was $550. It's now sold and shipped by Amazon.ca

I'd totally buy if it comes with a space where I can insert my PS2/3/4 and I can play whatever fighting game I want.

I installed a Raspberry Pi in mine. I have every fight game on my cabinet + upgraded sticks and buttons.

also there is plenty of space in the cabinet to put any one of the consoles inside.

Yes, it must be part of their new strategy of finding a replacement to Walmart for Canada (as per previous communications from the company). Hopefully next step is including the new release cabinets.

Tons of space inside. I built a shelf in one of mine.

Great news. Just an FYI to everyone here, EB Games is now taking pre-orders on Wave 3 cabinets. $50 deposit.

Here are the SKU's :

Golden Tee - 748519, $549 CAD
Star Wars - 748711 $649 CAD
TMNT - 748710 $549 CAD
Marvel vs Capcom - 748709 $529 CAD

They all include custom risers. Star Wars is actually cheaper here than in the U.S.!

Good to see a new retailer. But the pricing is outrageous! Way too expensive IMO
They started selling street fighter last month and it also is too expensive at $499. https://www.reddit.com/r/Arcade1Up/comm ... es_canada/

Not really expensive

Star Wars in the U.S. $499 X 1.33 exchange = $664 CAD (slightly less)

Golden Tee in the U.S. $399 X 1.33 exchange = $531 CAD (slightly more)

If you think they are expensive in the U.S. - that's another story. You can't anything else similar at these price points.

That is great news indeed.

I will be in the states (MN) next week and planning to get one at Walmart (at least the SF cab) and a riser then Amazon has the SF in stock. I should just probably get the riser instead and just order it from Amazon. What do you think?

I probably go to paradise arcade store as well to get some Sanwa stick and buttons. Any more recommendations while in the States specific for this hobby?

TIA! :)
