Don't believe the good reviews

The games freeze every so often for a half second, making this collection unplayable

Pure trash for collectors only

This collection is just awful. I remember playing these in the arcade as a kid (or on NES in the case of Crystalis) and this does not come close. This was a nostaglia buy. Better off with Emu's. Control response - terrible. Crashed once on menu while selecting games. A couple more times while playing different games. Sloppy porting, it's not like these are demanding games.. If you're a collector and just want to own games you'll never want to play, this is the collection for you!

Very well put together collection

A great value that is thoughtfully compiled and neatly presented. The museum includes a lot of vintage documenation alongside a contemporary narrative written for this collection. If you enjoy arcade classics, you will not be disappointed.

Crystalis. (works great on Steam Deck!)

Most these games... If you're not a Crystalis fan this collection isn't worth it. also don't ever buy this game full priced, wait for a sale. i bought this collection so i could have Crystalis, as i enjoyed it on the switch nso service back then, but nowadays i really only play on the deck so this is great in that regard. the reason i give four stars is it's worth $6 usd for Crystalis alone imo, even though it's still kinda pricey for a single NES rom to enjoy. on another note: iirc they have strange/restrictive custom controls so i have to use steam's controller options to make it how i like. very annoying. also if you are wondering, as far as i can tell this collection is not like snk's other titles that just have the roms laying about in the files, so that's unfortunate.

In loving memory of...

From the perspective of a nostalgic nerd; Instead of just bundling a bunch of retro games, this collection goes a step further and includes a full museum! The games themselves are very enjoyable, but the amount of context included adds beautiful filters to already rose-colored glasses. I highly recommend this to anyone who enjoys retro gaming, but if you fondly remember any of these games, I compel you to buy it!
