 Rating: - great old school gamesGot this one for my girlfriend so she could get in some game time. I've been playing since the days of Pong and love the fact that video games have come to such great heights. Unfortunately she can only handle simple controls and this was a great one for her. True, this would be a five star game if you could have the original controls for the games but beggers can't be choosers! I personally love the games and am hooked once again!! Rating: - Break out the old school sideDecent emulation for Asteroids, Battlezone (which I was never good at), Centipede, Missle Command, Super Breakout and Tempest. The Tempest controls are awkward, since with the coin-op version you play with a knob. Centipede and Missle Command, which used the track ball, works well with the GBA SP controls and movement is just as smooth. Asteroids seems a bit different to me; the graphics aren't as sharp as the original and things seem to be moving a tad bit faster than it should. Rating: - Back to the Future! 20 years ago!Remember when video games were in the arcades, and you had a pocket full of quarters? When Chuck E. Cheese was your favorite restaurant, and Aladdin's Castle was a place to hang out not a locale in a Disney flick? If you do this game is for you! In it you will find faithful reproductions of Asteroids, Battlezone, Centipede, Missile Command, Super Breakout, and Tempest. No updates, no "arrangements", just straight up video games from the early 80s. Most people have noticed the controls ... Read More Rating:  - DisappointingI was eagerly anticipating being able to play some of my favorite arcade games from the early 1980s. Unfortunately, the reality of playing them on a Gameboy is sorely disappointing. The trackball-based games, Centipede and Missile Command, are the biggest letdowns. Using the Gameboy's directional control to emulate a trackball just doesn't work. Centipede works adequately at first, but the inability to make swift moves quickly becomes a handicap. Missile Command is just unplayable. In ... Read More Rating:  - Amazing Retro ReproductionsBoth the look and sound have been captured perfectly in this Gameboy Advance version of Atari Ainniversary. Asteroids is perfect down to the look of the high scores. Same goes for the rest of the games---truly amazing considering how small the Gameboy screen is, but every detail is there. The only difference is in the control pad since all of the original games had different types of controls. But once you adapt and get used to the Gameboy controller, this is fun play for retro gamers. |
