Gonna give a lil review of each of this game's versions of these arcade titles
Galaxian: Just plain old galaxian, its nothing too special but its as fun as you'd imagine 3.5/5
Pac-Man: Probably the worst version of pacman i've played, the inputs to change directions don't work, its literally the only thing you can do as pacman 2/5
Xevious: Basic shmup, i enjoy it about as much as galaxian, maybe more because of the pretty sounds :) 3.5/5
Mappy: It's MAPPY dude 4/5
Dig-Dug: DUDE it's DIG DUG 4/5
The Tower of Druaga: you can't attack shit and its just a slow and boring maze 1/5
Sky Kid: Cute visuals but the gameplay is a bit too boring imo3/5
Dragon Buster: very interesting concept for an arcade game, its basically the sidescrolling Zelda 2 sections but as in arcade form 4/5
Dragon Spirit: probably the most fun I've had playing a shmup ever, dont think ive really seen a fantasy shoot em up and I think it gets challenging at a pleasant rate unlike most arcade era shmups 4.5/5
Splatter House: a cute horror sidescrolling platformer in a similar vein as ghouls n goblins but way more forgiving, still challenging and cool enemies :) 4/5
Pac-Man Championship Edition: probably the best version of pacman ive played, i have absolutely no clue how namco can manage to create the best and worst versions of an incredibly simple game on the collection. the controls are responsive, the gameplay is fast-paced but it still feels fair, and the visuals are retro stylised but still very sleek and appealing :) 4.5/5
