    Midway Arcade is my favourite collection for the Xbox 360 and PS3. I wish they would re-release that. Also Stern arcade games would be great. Thanks John, this looks great and I will be picking it up.

    I used to fight a lot as a kid. My best friend sometimes still tells the story of seeing me go for a flying headbutt 30 years ago and landing it. I think I'll be getting this for Solitary Fighter. I've been waiting a long time for this game on home consoles. He'll never see it coming, and I can't wait to get his reaction.

    wild western, elevator action and ninja warriors. those are the only games i'd play on this compilation. the best compilation i ever saw was years ago. on old original xbox and ps2. capcom classics collection, volumes 1 and 2. they were the most packed compilations, even compared to today. we have capcom arcade stadium now days, 1 and 2, imagine those as disc compilations back then but with even more games.

    Kiki Kaikai and Pocky and Rocky are one and the same, the SNES games were sequels to the arcade game. Rocky, aka Manuke, was the bad guy at the end of the arcade game, and once reformed of being a bad guy, he joined Sayo-chan's charge to defeat evil yokai. Funny you mention the FDS version of Kiki Kaikai, but fail to mention the arcade game was ported to the PC Engine, and is far more faithful to the arcade game than the FDS version. Darius II was a 2 screen game, the original Darius is the 3 screen game. Liquid Kids was never on the SNES, it's ports were to the PC Engine, and an arcade perfect port to the Sega Saturn.

    in college my roommates and i played Darius Twins on the SNES and called it "Space Fish." the names to the bosses of all the games still crack me up to this day. "Hyper Great-Thing" "DualShears SP" "Fatty Glutton" "Neon Light Illusion" "Risk Storage" "Accordion Hazard" etc.

    I like how much Game companies would put out multiple copies of their classic collection when most People rather not play them. Usually, People would pick em up just to say, "I have that game". We need to bring back old school events run by the game companies that the games came from like how the NES bring back the Nintendo championship which instead have 20 random people enter, they have a few random people and the rest is just youtubers (why?). I know this is just a negative post. I agree. I'm just saying that I wish game companies would bring this style back in their future games. Like go back to the past and make more 4 to 8 bit games. Sad that the old Atari games don't have that same number of fans that it once did. Which I'm sure someone would say "they always bring them back. shut up". I seen many people who own a switch who gotten those old school games subscription to only to browse them like netflix and just quit to go play Mario kart or something. It's not about how good that game is on the PS5, its about how much fun you would have. If they would make more of these, I'm sure many newer people would go and be fans of the old school games like that cheap Atari plug and play you see at Dollar General.

    Growing up I played a Gun Frontier machine, it was beside a Raiden one at my local arcade. Will likely grab this collection just to replay Gun Frontier and The Legend of Kage.

    Violence Fight and Dino Rex for me. Imagine if Lick Joe and Barney teamed up... afraid we're far away from a Little Samson though. Arcade collections seem to be easier for them to do, maybe because the arcade game makers often made the arcade hardware so if they emulate these games they don't have to pay licenses to the hardware owner to emulate the hardware. But a game like Samson that runs on NES, they'll either have to recreate to completely own the new version, or pay a license. So they'll probably release it as a single release, to get more money to compensate for the split earnings.

    While it does hit the nostalgia button it's one that I'll sadly pass on at this time. I already have Taito Legends 1&2 for my PS2 console with a ton of classic Tatio games unfortunately the ones on this newest collection aren't really doing it for me. If it goes for $30-$20 then I'll probably get the collection but until then I just turn on my PS2 and play these games that way.

    Taito Milestones Vol 1 is only good if you played and enjoyed the games featured on it. Personally I was gonna buy it (it was on sale in Amazon MX) but I realized that I wouldn't even touch it Vol.2 is a much better compilation IMO. It has more appealing games. Yes, including that silly dinosaurs fighting game.
