IncGamers: SNK Arcade Classics Volume 1

7
Paul Govan looks back at the games of yesteryear.

Equipped with nothing but a PSP and UMD of old skool games, this is just a little of what he had to say:
"I remember that at the time, a single Neo GeoSNK Arcade Classics Vol 1 joy pad (bristling with buttons) would have set me back as much as I had just shelled out for my SEGA Megadrive. Not even the might of Father Christmas and his endless budget (even before the Iceland banking collapse) could stretch to such extravagance."

No, retro games are great. I toyed with picking this up and I might actually do so now.

I remember a few of them, some good classics. Not enough that I remember for me to get it I don't think...

It's surprising how addictive these old games can be.

6 - i like these games...
I have them all on neogeo cd and cart. It is nice to have them all in one little umd. I have not played this compilation but I can say I DIDNT like the load times in the metal slug anthology released on psp.

I love the metal slug series but those load times during levels was unacceptable. If this umd suffers from the same fate then I will pick it up for the wii.

7 - This one is the best of the bunch
Better than the Genesis collection. The Taito, Namco, and BOTH Capcom collections.

But, i will say Capcoms REMIX collection is awesome.

The Genesis collection has 2 too many Ecco the Dolphin games, Alex Kidd and DeCap attack. No Street of Rage games or Eternal Champions.
Also, no Revenge of Shinobi, but Shadow Dancer.

This SNK collection is great, and for under $20, even cheaper used.
