Arcade SystemsBeat 'em up
X-Men is a side-scrolling beat 'em up developed and published by Konami for arcade systems in 1992. Based on Marvel's mutant superhero team, it follows the X-Men as they fight through stages to stop Magneto and his forces. Players choose from six heroes, each with distinct attacks and a mutant power, then battle waves of enemies in cooperative arcade action. The game supports up to six players on its larger cabinet configuration, an unusual feature for its period. Its colorful comic-book presentation, responsive combat, and energetic cooperative play earned it a strong reputation among arcade beat 'em ups and X-Men adaptations.

How rankings are calculated
The list is generated from active EmuGamers catalog entries. Votes and play activity determine order; browser compatibility is reported separately and does not turn an untested game into a higher-ranked recommendation.
| Order | Signal | How it is used |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Real community votes | Games with at least one recorded vote appear before games with no votes. |
| 2 | Rating confidence | More votes rank first, followed by the rating value. |
| 3 | Play activity | Play count breaks rating ties and orders entries with no votes. |
| 4 | Stable tie-break | Game name keeps otherwise equal results deterministic. |
