(More customer reviews)I love arcade compilation. I don't care what company it is, I'll buy an arcade compilation. I bought both Taito Legends games even though I never stopped to play them at the arcade. I got both Capcom arcades and glad I bought them.
Then I heard Data East was coming out with an arcade compilation. I was more excited about Caveman Ninja more than anything else. Second on my list was Bad Dudes. This was supposed to be coming out at the same time as Bioshock 2 and as much as I loved Bioshock, I was more excited about this.
I had to order it through Amazon because the game was hard to find. What did I think of it as I finally played it? Disappointment. It wasn't all bad. It's just that why is it that such games like Bad Dudes and Secret Agent can have unlimited lives at the same spot but with Caveman Ninja, the one I anticipated the most, start you off at a save point where nine times out of ten you would have to face the end boss all over again.
I even played it on 2-player and let me tell you, if you and your partner dies at the same time, it's about the same thing as one player. You will start back at a certain point. We managed to beat it but I'll probably never play it again or stick with Joe and Mac for SNES.
The other games were good. I enjoyed Bad Dudes, Secret Agent and I was surprised that I liked Magical Drop 3 and Wizard Fire. The rest of the games are pretty much filler. That's how these companies work it. They showcase their popular titles and then litter it with smaller arcade games that most people never cared about in the first place.
I don't regret buying Data East Arcade Classics and I advise that anyone is thinking about purchasing, don't hesitate. This is a hard game to find and could probably be a collection item in the future. I'm still waiting for Konami to come out with a true arcade compilation for the consoles. Bonus if they include Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles and The Simpsons! One can dream...
