5 Stars Worth the price.
With TONS of games to choose from, this is the perfect game for those who played these games back in the day.

Only downside is that most of the games feel the same after awhile, but def worth the money.

Great for when you are traveling.

1 Star Save your money
I thought it would be cool to “re-live” the past and play some of these old titles. I was wrong. The games are not sized to the screen of the PSP and some are so small you can’t even really see them.

5 Stars What a great game!!! 20 Capcom Arcade Classics on one tiny PSP UMD!!! Wow!!!
What a great deal!!! 20 Capcom Arcade Classics on one tiny PSP UMD!!! Finally version of Black Tiger(It took almost 20 years!) is now available on a gaming system,and it’s a perfect arcade translation!!!(It’s also available on Capcom’s Collection Vol. 2 for the PS2!) The other great games included are:1941,Captain Commando,Legendary Wings,Magic Sword,Strider,Block Block(it’s similar to Super Breakout or Arkanoid!),Quiz and Dragons,Final Fight,The Speed Rumbler,Varth,Section Z,Last Duel,Three Wonders,Side Arms,Avengers,Mega Twins,Bionic Commando,Forgotten Worlds,and the original Street Fighter!!! An incredible collection!!! Classic old-school fun!!! Hours and Hours of fun!!! This great game has lots of great options and unlockable features!!! Two thumbs up!!! Way up!!! Five stars!!! A+

5 Stars Oh man, worth the moolah
Geezy weezy, this game has it all! All the good fun-loving shoot-em-ups you probably remember from the 80s and 90s is all on this UMD, and some cool additional bonuses, but thats a surprise! Like it’s big brother, this game has some good shizzit, but no, the first one didn’t have Strider! (Too bad, because when i bought it and found out there was no Strider, thats when i got pissed) Yes, it has the ultimate action scroller Strider! The first one that started it all, Street Fighter 1! (which i actually didn’t find too bad; pretty addictive). Three Wonders, which had a limited release in the U.S., so practically nobody heard of it, but those who were lucky enough to play it in 1991 were gifted to some of the best graphics of its time, and STILL looks good today. And another two of my personal favorites, SECTION Z and SIDE ARMS: HYPER DYNE! Those who have played those games well, I think you know how good it is. ;-) There are much others, but, I’ll let you play them and see what you think. So, please, put down the Tony Hawk 1 and the Mario Kart, and buy this, and to some of you new-comers who haven’t played these, start today! Or, at least buy it today and play it in a couple of other days! Ha Ha, yeah.

User Ratings and Reviews

4 Stars For the old Atari and C64 freaks
Yeah if you are like me from the old Atari days and owning a C64 then this game will get you 20 years back in no time!

The cool thing is that this CD holds the original versions and some reworked ones that are a little different, but so much fun. I have always been a PacMan fan and own the game on pretty much every platform, so the PSP was a no brainer also.

I would say, if you have some money to spare and looking for an oldie, this one is awesome. The variaty is great.

Cons: I was missing some games like Missile Command and Space Invaders, but then, they are not really Namco ones. I guess, the Atari revived game is more for that…

5 Stars MY NAMCO GAME
I REALLY LIKE THE NAMCO GAME. IT BRINGS ME BACK TO THE OLD SCHOOL DAYS WHEN I HAD THE GAME PN 8-BIT OR COULD PLAY IT ON THE ARCADE. ANY BODY THAT LIKES ACTION GAMES WOULD LOVE THIS ONE!

5 Stars Great classics
Game offers classic versions which are more difficult than I recall. It is also fun because it has re-mixes of my some of my favorite games and they are actually better than the originals!

5 Stars Lots of Fun
I loved the classic versions of the games (particularly Pacman and Galaxian) and the newer versions have cool graphics. Recommended for the generation that grew up in the 80s.

2 Stars Not so Great..
Was disappointed that game had only 3 retro games I really liked; Pac-man, Ms. Pac-man and Galaxian.

Namco could have put more interesting games on the Collection
