Here’s a Bitsi Cola machine from the SNES version of Terminator 2: Judgment Day. It’ll be back *ahem* in several other versions of the game. First up, here’s the Genesis port…

Soda machines also appear in the NES release (albeit without the Bitsi Cola branding)…

And, finally, here they are in the Game Gear release…

Thanks for tracking down the SNES and Genesis screenshots, James!

Nothing works up a thirst like parkour, so it’s a good thing Faith stumbled across this soda machine in Mirror’s Edge Catalyst!

It’s a soda machine with a box of baking soda on top of it from Women’s Murder Club: A Darker Shade of Grey!

When Tiger Electronics ported Resident Evil 2 to their Game.com handheld in 1998, you better believe they included a soda machine!

What better way to celebrate Halloween than with this soda machine from the Sega Genesis release of Zombies Ate My Neighbors?
Meanwhile, the soda machine below from the SNES version of the game is similar to the one already in the archive, but only a bit greener and with a different selection of sodas.

Finally, just for funsies, the image below is captured from the ROM hack Oh No! More Zombies Ate My Neighbors. While the soda machine is the same one featured in the SNES release, it now shoots exploding cans of soda at Julie and Zeke. Thanks, Amayirot!


Danball Senki for the PSP is an RPG about a kid who collects miniature models of fighting mechas (instead of something reasonable like soda machines).
