This seems like it's the greatest historical game collection ever made. Over 100 games, documentary material, and a nice looking frontend - on sale for 179 DKK.
- Got the score 12438 in Neo Breakout.
Neo Breakout is an OK version of a Breakout-style game. It starts out in black and white and then gets color and 3D graphics after the first level, in a similar way that Bit.Trip: Beat did. Although not as graphically well-designed.
- Got the score 18279 in VCTR-SCTR.
VCTR-SCTR is an amazingly fun game that mixes Asteroids Deluxe, Lunar Lander, Tempest, and Star Wars into a fun action--packed sequence.
According to Ars Technica, arcade games newer than 1983 such as Marble Madness, Paperboy, or Gauntlet are not in the collection, due to modern day Atari (previously Infogrames) not having the rights for them. Some of these rights are owned by Warner Bros.
