My sleepy brain decided to invent an arcade cabinet that does not exist: Mega Man X Tournament Edition.
In the dream, I two credit cleared it on its very hard setting, and it proceeded to make the Steam Deck achievement jingle. Which is also weird, because MAME cabinets running on Steam Deck hardware would also be neat.
I uh. Also apparently botched my name as "Golkdkin" on the leaderboard because the (dream) arcade was closing at 9PM for the night. I guess I don't need to worry about that.
Vague gameplay format is three stages:
1. Opening level
2. Select one robot master stage from the original 8 (maybe some guest appearances?)
3. Score attack round
No Vile, Sigma, or Zero cutscenes. All of it is distilled to gameplay.
...
I guess the closest to that for real would be to just play 30XX's daily seed? Not quite the same format, but it's close enough I think.
