GOLDEN AXE from My Arcade: Was It Worth the Wait?

Shop X-Arcade: genxgrownup.com/xgaming
Golden Axe is back in a brand-new My Arcade Micro Player Pro—but what exactly did Sega allow them to put inside? We unbox and play this long-awaited mini cabinet, check out all three included Golden Axe games, and dig into one big question: if this looks like an arcade machine, why are we playing the Genesis versions?

Along the way, we take a quick look at the unusual arcade-vs-console lineage of Golden Axe, how Golden Axe II and III fit into the series, and whether this tiny cabinet is actually worth adding to your collection.
