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.

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.
c'mon get happy!

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).yellow98gt wrote: ↑ Street fighter is now available through Amazon.ca for $349.99 https://www.amazon.ca/dp/B07G1Y6XJS/ref ... sDbDM8EHET

Those were 3rd party sellers when it was $550. It's now sold and shipped by Amazon.cadmdsoftware2 wrote: ↑ Seems like they finally adjusted their amazon.ca prices -- from the reviews, it was > $550 before.

A lot easier than driving to the U.S. to get and cheaper than Walmart.

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.

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.yellow98gt wrote: ↑ Those were 3rd party sellers when it was $550. It's now sold and shipped by Amazon.ca

Star Wars - 748711 $649 CAD

Good to see a new retailer. But the pricing is outrageous! Way too expensive IMOkool1 wrote: ↑ Great news. Just an FYI to everyone here, EB Games is now taking pre-orders on Wave 3 cabinets. $50 deposit.

They started selling street fighter last month and it also is too expensive at $499. https://www.reddit.com/r/Arcade1Up/comm ... es_canada/

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.

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!
