Arcade Classics is a Genesis/Mega Drive compilation of three Atari, Inc. arcade video games: Pong (1972), Missile Command (1980), and Centipede (1981), plus a revised version of each one. It was published in 1996 by Sega. A version was also released for the Game Gear, with Ultrapong replacing Pong.

Reception

Lua error in package.lua at line 80: module 'Module:Video game wikidata' not found.

Arcade Classics was panned by critics. Reviews commented that Arcade Classics includes very few games compared to other retro compilations,[1][2][3] that it fails to recreate the experience the games offered in the arcades,[4][2] that the "enhanced" versions offer nothing but mild cosmetic changes,[5][2][3] and that the overly "busy" backgrounds in the enhanced version of Centipede interfere with the gameplay.[6][3]
