- •ART OF FIGHTING – The first game in SNK’s second fighting-game franchise, set in the same universe as FATAL FURY. It was the first fighting game by SNK to feature the character designs of former SNK illustrator Shinkiro, who would go on to do the character designs for the later Fatal Fury and The King of Fighters games.
- •BASEBALL STARS 2 – The sequel to SNK’s popular baseball arcade game. Players can create leagues of up to 125 games (6 teams playing each other 25 times) and view statistics such as League Standings, Average, Home Runs, Runs Batted In, Earned Run Average, Wins and Saves. Players can fire players and upgrade them using the same 15-point system introduced in the original Baseball Stars.
- •BURNING FIGHT – New York detectives battle organized crime in this fighter. Duke and Billy, two popular and renowned New York City Police detectives, are hot on the trail of a dangerous Japanese crime syndicate. Their investigation has led them to the mean streets of Japan where they meet a police officer and martial arts expert named Ryu. Ryu agrees to join the NYPD detectives as they track down the crime syndicate bosses and end their reign of terror once and for all.
- •FATAL FURY – First released in 1991, FATAL FURY introduced the two-plane fighting system. The main fighting game feature that the original Fatal Fury was known for was the two-plane system. Characters would fight from two different planes, and by stepping between the planes, attacks could be dodged with ease.
- •KING OF FIGHTERS ’94 – The first game in the popular KING OF FIGHTERS series. King of Fighters '94 introduces the series' signature 3-man team system. Instead of a simple one-on-one, two round fight system, a player chooses a team of three characters, then determines the order to play them in. Each fight consists of up to 5 rounds, and each round ends when one of the two fighters is knocked out; the remaining fighter stays and faces the opponent's next character. A fight is won when one of the two players loses the last of their three fighters.
- •KING OF THE MONSTERS – In KING OF THE MONSTERS, giant monsters fight for power in epic battles. Players get to choose any one of six monsters (four in the ports) for battle, and two players can join forces to fight the monsters together. Battles end when one of the monsters is pinned for a three count or if time expires (in which case the player loses)
- •LAST RESORT – A challenging futuristic shooter. The gameplay was heavily inspired by R-Type and its system of pod attached to the player's ship. Its first level remained memorable for its homage to the futuristic Neo-Tokyo depicted in the anime Akira.
- •MAGICIAN LORD – Players help the wizard Elta save his homeworld in this platformer. The player controls the wizard Elta, the last magician lord, on his quest to save his homeland from the evil Gul-Agieze who plans to resurrect the god of destruction using eight tomes of mystical power. As Elta the player must battle through eight levels to find each of the tomes before he can reach the final battle and seal away the evil god once again.
- •METAL SLUG – This run-and-gun side-scroller was the first in the popular series. It’s widely known for its sense of humor, extremely fluid hand-drawn animation, and fast paced two-player action.

During the mid to late 2000's, game companies released a lot of these retro collections for various platforms and these were a great deal since you could have anywhere from 10 to over 30 games per collection and these retro sets usually went for about thirty bucks new and later dropped down to under twenty bucks. Later on some of these games began appearing individually for download on the various virtual shops such as Xbox live or Wii shop channel for around ten bucks a pop(or sometimes less but overall this collection is a much better deal).
SNK Arcade Classics Vol. 1 has 16 games in the collection. For each game there are several different settings that you can change to customize to your liking such as display or audio options as well as difficulty and button layout variations. In addition to the games, you can also unlock such things as game art, music, and video as well as a moves list(for fighting games). And there are also goals you can reach in each game in order to earn various medals.
In the selection of games, you can see a big difference between the older Neo Geo games(from the early 90's) and the later ones(mid to late 90's); the older games had stiffer animation and the graphics looked flatter whereas for the later games the programmers knew how to take advantage of the capabilities of the Neo Geo and produced more fluid looking games with graphical depth and better shading. And the games look great on the PSP with sharp visuals and bright colors. The controls feel pretty accurate too. It would've been nice had they included Pulstar or even a horizontal shooter such as Aero Fighters 3 since I am a big 'Shmups' fan. And unfortunately there was no volume 2.

Dust off your PSP, and lets have a retro arcade good time with: SNK Arcade Classics Vol 1

I have to admit, I'm a retro-arcade whore-junkie of the worst kind, and SNK Arcade Classics Vol. 1 serves up 'old school' gaming in spades! If you've read any of my other reviews you must know I'm a Sega fan boy, ( also of the worst kind ) and I simply adore the Sega Genesis, Saturn and Dreamcast. ( I still have the Saturn & Dreamcast ) Back in the day ( 1990-1997 ) and during the gaming console wars the Neo-Geo by SNK stood out as the most powerful arcade machine in the known universe, and the most expensive. They cost a whopping $650.00, and the games were $300.00 each! ( ouch! ) Needless to say I never did own one, but it was ( and is ) on my bucket list of things to get. Sega did such a great job of porting arcade to home console games, that it just wasn't worth it to me in the day to buy one. That being said, I played a lot of arcade games, and the SNK games were the bomb. But lets get down to brass tacks shall we! I've owned my Sony PSP for quite some time now, and it's a great little system, it has lots of great games and a good size screen. ( for a hand held ) When I found SNK Arcade Classics Vol. 1 I snagged it up as fast as I could, and It's one of my favorite compilation games on the PSP. ( The Capcom Greatest Arcade Hits is also a great compilation disc! ) I got it new on Amazon for $25.00, ( the SNK one, pay attention! ) so that averages down to about $1.57 a game, and that my friends is what I call, " getting your moneys worth." SNK:AC1 has 16 of the best arcade games you can shake a stick at. Normally in Compilations you might get 2-3 good games and the rest is filler crap, but not here, they're all gems in my books. You have Metal Slug ( one of my all time faves ) Baseball Stars ( I normally hate sports games, but it's way fun. ) Burning Fight, Fatel Fury: King of Fighters, King of the Monsters, ( I love that game! ) Last Resort, Magician Lord, Neo Turf Masters, ( I'm not a golfer, but this game is addictive as hell! ) Samurai Shodown, ( Great game! ) Segoku, Shock Troopers, ( an other fun one! ) Super sidekicks 3: The Next Glory, The King of Fighters, ( One of the best fighting games of all times! ) Top Hunter: Roddy & Cathy, ( Don't let the name fool ya, it's way fun! ) and The unlockable game, World Heroes. I haven't obtained the 10 medals yet needed to unlock it, but someday! For people more worried about 3-D graphics and eye candy in a game, you should look elsewhere. But to us retro gaming whores ( and you know who you are! ) that want playability above anything else, great memories, and the thrill of the 'high score' SNK Arcade Classics Vol. 1 is the best game your PSP can ever have in it. I can't wait for Vol 2 to come out! ( If it ever will? ) " Happy Arcading! "
