I used to own Guerilla War on my NES. That game was a favorite for my brother and me growing up.
Giving you the arcade and console version of some of those games made this a very appealing collection.
This compilation is fantastic and would love to see more of these types. From the front end, to the museum, to the emulation functions... all are great! Thanks for the video!
I want a King of Fighters collection like Street Fighter 30th anniversary and a Samurai Shodown one. I also want capcom vs snk 1 and 2 😂 gimme it all

I just bought this for the Switch for $32.00 at Best Buy, and I'm SO glad I did. I haven't played it yet, but I didn't even know much about it until I watched this. I love the amount of games. I didn't even realize SNK made games other than fighting games. And I own many of these on NES.

RGT85, you just brought back a wave of memories with those screen shots of Ikari II. My brother and I had such a hard time with those little green guys, the jumping black/yellow spider things ,and the floating face. We tended to only spend a token or two on the game before moving on to something else in Aladdin's Castle, but yeah, totally forgot about this stage in the game until you just showed it. Thanks for triggering those happy memories of yore!

He just said it twice while I was typing this! And one "things like this".
This compilation was from the era before snk was associated with neo geo that's why there is no neo geo fighting games on it
Guerilla war is nostalgic to me, and I got through it really fast and was one of the only games I beat on the nes
Dude... Prehistoric Isle brings back some memories. That arcade machine fascinated me as a kid. I'm definitely getting this.
I loved Street Smart as a kid. It was the reason I was good at Street Fighter II upon its release.

Ikari Warriors - Played a ton at Playcade on the Atlantic City Boardwalk, 1980's. Love it.
I remember playing Prehistoric Isle on the arcade in the 90's great game! RGT 85, find the button that allows you to rotate the module and you'll see you can fire different ammo in different directions.
Love this too. Amazing and want to try them too! Thanks for the overview.
I'm definitely really excited to pick up the SNK 40th collection on Switch! A few of the NES games I remember playing back in the day so having those alongside the arcade versions would be pretty cool (at least until I get the respective cart versions I do still collect for that!) Also one thing that wasn't mentioned that one of the developers included was for the rotary stick games (Ikari Warriors, Guerilla War) what he did was turn those games into a twin-stick shooter setup one to move and the other aims in all eight directions! obviously not a direct re-creation of the controls, but certainly beats the MAME method of pressing a button to change angles one click at a time! Some of the upcoming free DLC is gonna be great too I'm kinda hyped for Time Soldiers!
I played the arcade version of Ikari warriors a couple of weeks ago one night whilst drinking some scotch. It’s fookin solid. I died almost straight away.

Indeed it is a hard game
"And things like that" seems to be a new thing with your recent videos. I don't remember you doing that before. LOL
Ikari warriors in arcade had a very unique joystick that you would rotate to turn character in 8 directions to shoot.
Pre ordered the collecror's addition. Looking forward to it! Nice review.
Great review video RGT 85. The SNK Collection is really cool but I might wait for a price drop tho before picking it up.

oh wow, I can't wait to see your reaction to the differences of Arcade vs NES versions. Most of those I played in the arcade first for sure.
When is a review not a review? When RGT says its a review.
Loved Vanguard on the 2600. Looking forward to playing the arcade version on this collection.

Street smart was dope. I rocked that game back in the days.
I currently have this on my eShop wish list and was going to wait for a sale, but I may reconsider waiting and get this day 1.
'85 was a great year - I was born in '72!
I’ve been waiting so long for this to come out. Played the crap out of most of these in the arcade. Really bummed that not all the games are on the card however. I did order the special edition from NIS. There is a nice book and cd with it.
"Athenia" Shawn November 2018. XD
The first time I've ever heard of SNK is when I got Neo Geo Battle Coliseum in 2009.
keep up the good work with the reviews on these games peace out !
Street Smart was supposed to be THE GAME when it came out. It just didn't age well since SFII reinvented everything. But when it came out, people talked about that game like ALL the time

Ikari Warriors, P.O.W. and Prehistoric Isle... fed tons of coins to those. Shame the other games in the collection doesn't seem too exciting. Sky Soldiers, Gang Wars, Fatal Fury, Art of Fighting, World Heroes etc... yeah not all of them were SNK, but SNK has the rights to them now I think. Just adding 1 or 2 of them would have given the collection so much more value.
This is a well thought collection that gives us a chance to learn about the games and the history of SNK. I either played a few of them on the old NES like Ikari Warriors or their sequel on SNK NeoGeo like Alpha Mission 2, Prehistoric Isle 2 and like most of the guys here, I'm not familiar with all of the older SNK games in this collection. We love retro games because they're easy and simple to pick up for a quick play and those games looks like they're just that! However, it's kind expensive for the price and it's only 14 games with 11 more free to download later. If they're newer NeoGeo games like Metal Slug, King of Fighters,.... I wouldn't mind paying $39.99 (the upcoming Sega Genesis Classic has 50 games and it's only $29.99!) There are many good games coming out just in time for the holidays, so I'll hold off on this until the price drops to $29.99 or less
1 million percent worth it. I play these games all the time
Iron Tank was one of my favorite NES games!
Awesome that you can play different versions
Dame you RGT now I want this bad too! FML
I, too, am born in 85, and Ive played the neo geo hits catalog... Thats NOT an excuse, RGT!
so if i buy the physical game, i wont get the new games? will those games not be added as an update?
1985 and a Sega Kid! I feel like I know you! Haha
This looks really fun
That voice in psycho soldier that was singing should be the voice for zelda.
Guerrilla War is awesome too. POW is good too
Athena is a playable fighter in a game called NEO GEO BATTLE COLOSSEUM on Atomiswave and ps2
I'm certainly gonna pick this up. Even though i have most of these games on the SNK Classics Vol. 0 for the PSP. It gonna be nice playing them on a bigger screen, also cause my PSP is dead and I haven't been able to fix it or replace it yet.
I love that song!
A year later and I thought it was a 40 game collection LOL but I’d have to say that I played Athena more then the other games...
Athena first gamr before coming to the king of fighters games lol. I remember that game so much fun 😆😆
9:30 his face fit in the border... cool
I am wondering how you manage your sd card being that you get so many digital review games? I know there are cloud saves now but so many switch games need additional download space.
I wish all the games were on physical not download later. I had the CE on pre order but I ended up passing. I might get this used down the road but eh.

Or just get the Neo-Geo mini from Amazon. Comes preinstalled with 40 games over maybe 30 on the switch including free DLC.
You didn’t like playing for 10 hours just to get stuck in a wall?(ikari warriors)
Athena fans must be all fired up hahah
Some of the games I have never heard of. I liked Ikari warriors on the NES. Maybe I'll check this out on a sale.
Ikari Warriors II, one of the games I never got to finish.
Ikari Warriors trilogy is all I need!
I wish SNK would start selling a usb rotary joystick controller. it would be nice to play all the rotary joystick arcade games like Heavy Barrel, Ikari Warriors, Midnight Resistance, etc.
EBgames (gamestop) in Australia is selling this game brand new for $24.95 AUD ($16.95 USD) all prices include 10% tax, is it worth getting for that price?
I love SNK games. The NeoGeo AES was so expensive it hurt to see how great the games looked in the magazines. My only sadness is I wish SNK would have sold a tabletop rotary joystick to go with the games. It's like playing Street fighter with the old three button Genesis controller.
Hope they include SAR search and rescue in a future patch
Hi, it's a review copy or did u buy it yourself?
Man I really like this collection, Cap on should learn a bit from this. Also there I saw at least 5 games I would play including Ikari Warrriora 2&3.
This looks great. What are the DLC games that are coming?
1985 eh? I’m so old, so very old
Where metal slugs at? Is it on there and is it good?
I might actually look into the physical version 🤔
I need this game!
On December there's gonna be a free DLC with 11 additional games, so it's quite a great deal.
Does vanguard have the atari 2600 console version on there too?
Played Athena. Fun game!
I like this type of review.
The only reason I bought this compilation just for the game Prehistoric Isle in 1930 I I think that game was way ahead of his time really good i grew up playing that game honestly I don't care for the rest of the games
Hey man i was born 1985 too cool!
Been playing this lately myself and definitely ran into issues with the rewind. Hopefully the patch fixes it as intended. Could hurt the game quite a bit if it's not ready by release. That aside, the museum alone made this a pretty fun experience. And of course the Psycho Soldier Theme song!

interesting. I shall wait till DEC 2018 DLC to decide if I want to own it.
Do you prefer to the Arcade version or Console version? My thinking is the Arcade version will look nicer, but have more "unfair deaths" due to the need suck you dry of your quarters.
you know what arcade games we need? Naomi arcade games.
Psycho Soldier Hahahahah 😂👍🏽 I always wondered what it would have been like, if games back then were able to have vocals, and if it would have ruined low-bit games music.
