Numskull Reveals A New Quarter Arcades Cabinet For Bubble Bobble

Numskull has revealed a new addition to their Quarter Arcades mini cabinet line with the original Bubble Bobble cabinet. This is a replica of the original arcade cabinet that you would have found back when TAITO first released it, but at a 1/6 scale of the original. It's a pretty awesome replica in time for the game's 35th anniversary, as it includes a copy of the original arcade version (not the NES version) for you to try and become the greatest champion that ever played it. You can read more about the cabinet below as it is currently on sale for $180.

One of the world's most recognisable, quintessential arcade games, and our most-requested addition by fans, Bubble Bobble stars the Bubble Dragons in their quests to complete the 100 levels of the Cave of Monsters and save their girlfriends. As well as being one of the first games to feature multiple endings, Bubble Bobble is amazingly fun in both single-player and co-op mode.
