Did someone say retro compilations? What do you want to know?

I love these freaking things and play them pretty regularly. Still a few out there I want to pick up (check my B/S/T thread!), but there's so much classic gaming goodness across these discs that I'll never run out of new things to try.

Incidentally, I am looking to swap the two gamecube compilations (Midway 1 and 2) for their PS2 counterparts - if anyone is interested.

I love them as well. I have a lot of them for Gamecube, and have started picking up the GBA ones that I find as well. :)

I've got a few compilations. Sonic Mega Collection Plus (which has to be one of the best), Sega Megadrive Collecton and Midway Arcade Treasures 2. All on PS2. I've also been meaning to get the Taito and Capcom collections on PS2.

I've also got 2 XBLA compilations on 360. And Fallout Collection on PC.

A lot of the good PSP retro collections have been made available for download as part of the surge of downloadable games accompanying the PSP Go. I noticed the SNK collection, Genesis collection and both Capcom collections. I have most of them on UMD and don't plan on double-dipping.

I've been looking for the GC remake of Bonk as well. I don't know why it was Japan-only. Anyway, it's not easy to find.

Metal Slug Anthology is brilliant, definitely worth the money.

I just found out about this new one coming out for the Wii
Data East Arcade Classics Jan. 2010

Its got 15 games and one of them is Bad Dudes arcade.

Racketboy needs to make more guides for compilations for the newer consoles since there are quite a few now.
