Very good collection, but beware. These are not the Neogeo games like Metal Slug, KOF or Samurai Shodown. Rather they are the predecessor games to that mythical arcade board.

It includes both arcade games with their Japanese versions, as well as some ports that were made to consoles of certain games. As always Digital Eclipse making wonderful collections, nothing that surprises me and it is a very well done work. With artworks, unpublished images, information, etc.

Now, the games themselves are just so-so, nothing to highlight for the most part. I'm not saying that the emulation quality is bad, on the contrary. I'm just saying that the games themselves are no big deal even if they are arcade games. I feel that most of them were very experimental or clones of other hits of the time.

Still, it's a worthwhile collection.
