Taito Type X2 (The Sweet Spot)

  1. Controller Support: The original Type X boards used JVS (JAMMA Video Standard) IO boards, which are incompatible with modern USB controllers. Batocera automatically maps inputs, allowing you to play Street Fighter IV with a modern fight stick or a wireless console controller without manual configuration.
  2. Resolution Scaling: The Type X output was generally limited to specific arcade monitor resolutions. Batocera allows these games to be upscaled to 1080p or 4K, smoothing out the jagged edges of early 3D models while retaining the crisp 2D sprite work of games like KOF XIII.
  3. No Windows Required: The most significant barrier to entry was the operating system. Because Type X games are essentially Windows executables, Linux users previously struggled. Batocera has integrated the necessary Wine configurations directly into the backend, meaning the user never sees a Windows desktop.

No more dual-booting Windows. No more fighting with JConfig on a 7-inch touchscreen. No more desynced audio in Homura. King of Fighters XII: Yes, the "bad" one

If you are looking for the best "New" experiences, prioritize these titles which are now fully stable: Taito Type X: Raiden III, Giga Wing Generations.

Taito Type X2 (The Sweet Spot)

  • King of Fighters XII: Yes, the "bad" one. But the new BGFX shaders make the hand-drawn sprites look stunning.
  • King of Fighters XIII: Steam version is better, but the arcade dump now has zero input delay on Batocera.
  • Akai Katana Shin: The CAVE shmup. The new build fixes the slowdown emulation to match the PCB.
  • Street Fighter IV Arcade Edition (Type X2): Boots faster than the actual PC port.
