Publisher: Sega
Released: 1996
Arcade Classics is a compilation of Atari titles that was also released on the Sega Game Gear (1996).
+ Centipede includes a two-player co-op mode and there's plenty of options in each game to customise the experience.- Offers a measly three games and the inclusion of each is puzzling given their Paddle / Trackball controller origins.
- Redesigned Sega versions fail to add anything new apart from garish backgrounds and obnoxious sound effects.
- Centipede has graphical glitches and there's rampant slowdown when a spider appears, resulting in sluggish controls.
- Missile Command omits the iconic 'The End' screen, and the cursor either crawls along (Beginner) or jitters (Normal).
- Ultrapong is frustrating, as the ball seldom ricochets in the right direction based on where it hits the paddle.
- Inexplicably decides to show you the compilation credits after each game, which quickly grows tiresome.
