Outrun 2 SP - Real Arcade Twin Cabinet 2P Versus Gameplay (Chris Vs Neil)
26A 2 Player versus game on a real Outrun 2 SP twin cabinet (even though it looks like a regular Outrun 2 cabinet). This was recorded at #NQ64 arcade bar in Bristol. I'm on camera duty this time around.
If you follow my YouTube channel at all you'll probably know that I'm a bit of an Outrun 2 obsessive. I absolutely bloody love the game and this was my first ever time actually properly playing Outrun 2 SP in the arcade. I was quite surprised to find out that the arcade version of OR2SP had a couple of extra features compared to the home versions, that I was previously unaware of, like the ability to play a special versus track, which mixes and matches some of the regular Outrun 2 courses with some of the ones from SP in a slightly different order. There's also some small animated representations of your cars in the top right of the screen that react to your position in a versus game. Also, your girlfriend Clarissa pops up from time-to-time at the bottom of the screen with little comments about how you're driving and what route you're taking, something that doesn't happen in the home version. Interesting that I'm still finding out new stuff about this game, all these years later....
What was really great here as well, is that the last time I encountered a real-life Outrun 2 cabinet, which was also in another Bristol City Center Arcade, the steering was kind of messed up on both sides of the twin cabinet and also it had its CRTs swapped out for wrong aspect ratio LCD monitors which meant all the cars were stretched out into 16:9 when they should be 4:3. Fortunately, this was not the case here all four of the cabinets had proper CRT screens that were displaying in the right aspect ratio although the colors were a little bit off on the one that Neil was using (on the right) in this video. Not only that, the wheels worked properly here and had working force feedback too. Amazing!
