Metal Max 2

While we’re on the subject of the Metal Max series, I’d be remiss if I didn’t include these soda machines from Metal Max 2 for the SNES.
Obsessively Cataloging Video Game "Pop" Culture

While we’re on the subject of the Metal Max series, I’d be remiss if I didn’t include these soda machines from Metal Max 2 for the SNES.

Metal Max Returns is a remake of the original Metal Max, this time for the Super Famicon. Needless to say, the game’s post-apocalyptic soda machines make a return appearance.

If there’s a takeaway from The Video Game Soda Machine Project, it’s that soda machines will absolutely survive the apocalypse. This screenshot from Metal Max for the NES is just further evidence of their durability.

The soft drink machine in this screenshot from Shoujo City is the main attraction (obviously), but that frozen watermelon cone from the ice cream machine looks delicious!

If I assigned ratings to soda machines here at The Video Game Soda Machine Project, this one from Rainbow Six Siege would easily earn a full five out of five stars.
I can’t be certain, but this second vending machine looks like it probably sold snacks and not soda. Still, it’s just too adorable not to post.

Thanks for the screenshots, ReverendTed!

We only get a side view of this soft drink machine from THE iDOLM@STER Platinum Stars, but that’s better than no soft drink machine at all. Thanks, SalarymanDaishi!

Canny the robot encounters a dilapidated cold drinks machine in Scrap Garden, a post-apocalyptic puzzle platformer. Thanks for sending this in, Cornelius!

It’s not a bad soda machine, per se, but ArctiCola pales in comparison to the Zombie Zoda machines found elsewhere in Alcatraz: Prison Escape. Thanks for the screenshot, Albert!

This wacky vending machine from Card City Nights 2 not only talks, but also boasts a C: prompt and WASD controls!

In addition to repairing gear, this vending machine from DC Universe Online also dispenses Soder Cola. Thanks for the screenshot, chipzes!
