Midway Arcade Treasures

[Agent X]

Midway just announced a monster compilation disc called Midway Arcade Treasures for release this fall on Sony PlayStation 2, Nintendo GameCube, and Microsoft X-Box. It will have the following games on it:

Spy Hunter
Defender II
Gauntlet
Joust
Paperboy
Rampage
Marble Madness
Robotron: 2084
Smash TV
Joust 2
Bubbles
RoadBlasters
Blaster
Rampart
Sinistar
Super Sprint
720°
Toobin
Klax
SPLAT!
Satan's Hollow
Vindicators

GameSpot reported this exciting news tonight, which you can read if you click here. The disc will also include interviews with the creators and developers, as well as multiplayer support for two players. Hopefully, the games that originally supported three or four players will also do so here.

This is one of the most exciting video game announcements of the year for me! I'm looking forward to learning more about it!

HOLY SHIT!!!

Even though I already own some these games on their PSX compelations, I will be buying this one without hesitation.

Oh man, I hope they have new interviews as well!

And please, oh please, give Robotron dual analog support like they did with Smash TV.

Now all I need is for them to realse a compilation with all the Mortal Kombats, Nba Jams, Revolution X, and Total Carnage and I'll be set.

If I could push money into my PC monitor to make it spit out the game faster, I would. Dual analog Robotron is going to make me a happy, happy person.

And Sinistar, and Spy Hunter, and Toobin, and...

don't forget narc! not the greatest game, but damn that rocket launcher is fun.

Nice, even though almost all of these games came out on Playstation already. Still, Satan's Hollow has never been rereleased before and I look forward to shooting that flying Satan head again.

PS controllers do kick ass at simulating dual sticks as proved by Battlezone and Black Widow in Atari Anniversary Redux.

Woo! A perfect version of Smash TV makes this one a must buy, the rest is just icing on the cake.

I have just about every compilation for the PSX and Dreamcast, so I'm not so eager to purchase this one. If the price is around $30, I'll defineatly pick it up for the chance to play Satan's Hollow again and the interview extra's.

Agreed.

(even though half of those games were made by Atari)

Despite having many of the games on various other platforms, I'm still excited. Hopefully it'll turn out as good as Activison Anthology.

I wish Nintendo would make some damn compilation discs. If they wanted some quick cash just make a disc with the 1st 3 Zeldas on it priced at $29.99. Put in a few extras and BANG instant hit.
I wish the Konami collection game for PC came out for consoles.
Contras plus Castlevainas, how sweet was that!?
