Ever since I sold my Super Nintendo I have been looking for a re-release of the Street Fighter games I used to own. This collection has them all plus Final Fight and 19 other arcade games. HOURS OF ENTERTAINMENT FOR ONLY $20!

If you played a lot of Ghosts & Goblins in the mid to late '80s, this is the game for you. Also has Street Fighter and lots of others. Very fun, exactly like the originals, just no more quarters to pump into the slots.

Brings me back...

A true Capcom time capsule!!! Roll on the memories!!! Oodles of classic arcade fun!!!

In the second volume there are a lot of games that are alike but in this one there are all different sorts and variety. My favorites in this game are Mercs, Street Fighter 2 Hyper Fighting, 1942, all of the ghosts n ghouls, and there is a couple others but I can't think of them off the back of my head. But some cheap games on here like, Pirate ship Higemaru, Commando, Bionic Commando and 1943 kai I have never even heard about in the arcades. this does have o.k. graphics, but they aren't as good as the second one. I would pay $15 for this game. If you are looking for other games like this look for my reviews on, Taito Legends 1, Capcom vol. 2, Midway arcade treasures 1-3, Intellivision Lives, and Atari Anthology. Coming soon to my review list, Taito Legends 2, Namco museum, and sega genesis and/or sega classics collection.

Excellent Retro Set

For those who were old enough in the 1980s and early 1990s to go to the arcades and play these, Capcom has put together an excellent collection. It's nice that they threw a lot of their actual classics together, as opposed to some sets you will see on Amazon... legendary wings, street fighter in its variations, commando, gunsmoke, the ghosts n goblins series, the 1942/1943 series, etc. all combined in this set. Some games I never heard of (I was never a hard-core kid) but are actually fun and stack up well. The mid-80s title Son Son is strangely addictive. The extras are allright, history and artwork and so on, but the games are probably what you are going to enjoy. You can change the difficulty (some), and also get remixed music or the original. This is one to get!

This is the way life should be...

I will put this as basic and to the point as possible...if you are looking for fun in the simplest way, this is the game to go for!!! It has all the fun arcade games that we in our 30's grew up on, and...wasted our entire allowance for the week by pumping quarter after quarter into these machines. Now...you don't have to do that anymore!!!
I wish they would add "Kicker" or, "Shaolin Road" to one of the compilation disks. The game is great, but...there tends to be some load time, but...it is worth it. Highly recommend it for any die hard gamer that remembers the glory days!!! I also purchased the Midway Treasures series...look those up as well.

Truly classical

This game is truly a very good and classical games. It's all about remembering the past. Like Final Fight, Street Fighter II series and Ghost'n Goblins series. I like Street Fighter II series. This is of course, billiant game in the past. For the Ghost'n Goblins series, I only like the Super Ghouls'n Ghosts, because this game remembers the most. However, other games are good and it is still a good recommendation.

This is a great collection.

Arcade perfect ports of Mercs, Final Fight, Forgotten World, Ghouls & Ghosts, Bionic Commando, Street fighter 2 & many more. I would've paid over $20 just for an arcade perfect port of Final Fight or Mercs. We finally have it & it will cost us less then $1.

Many great games on this collection. 22 games from Capcom, just wow!

This is the second best collection in the market today, only bested by Taito Legends. Don't waste your money on the Midway or Namco collections. If you want to get a real great collection, then get this Capcom Classics collection or my favorite the Taito Legends collection. You will get over 50 games between these 2 collection & most of these games are great, not like some of the other collections I can name.

Space Shooters Collection mostly

First off, I Think this collection should have been named "Capcom's best Shooter" and then drop like 9 games. This collection leans on Space Shooters very heavy. Enjoyable Collection tho. I bought this collection because of the Ghost n Goblins collection on it, but there are other gems on here.

One Such gem to me was the game "Exed Exes" Which is a Space Shooter based on bees and insects. Wild backgrounds too. If you love odd shooters then this one is for you!

Another Killer game is "Final Fight". Classic Action Game all the way.

The only problem which other reviews already talk of is the loading screens on the Street Fighter 2 screens. It would seem they ported these from the Snes/sega systems.

Other issues I had was the lack of bonus stuff. I exspected more than that from capcom. The lack of Mega Man also very Odd.

However What you get here is still a very good collection. Shoot Them up!

Some great titles here!

These are the games you probably remember playing either in the arcades or at home, especially 1942-43, SFII, and the G&G series...each title is very well done, and more-or-less true to the arcade originals. Being a sucker for these compilations, I couldn't resist anyway, but you get a LOT of playability for the surprisingly low price you pay...it could keep you busy for weeks on end! :-)
