Default They're NOT ****ing around this time!

Rather than releasing a dozen different arcade compilation discs, midway takes it all out in one shot.

http://www.planetgamecube.com/news.c...n=item&id=4496

Hell, this is all you care about

Midway Arcade Treasures Games Include:

* Jam-Packed Entertainment -- More than 20 Great Arcade Games Including:
o SpyHunter
o Defender II
o Gauntlet
o Joust
o Paperboy
o Rampage
o Marble Madness
o Robotron: 2084
o Smash TV
o Joust 2
o Bubbles
o RoadBlasters
o Blaster
o Rampart
o Sinistar
o Super Sprint
o 720°
o Toobin'
o KLAX
o SPLAT!
o Satan's Hollow
o Vindicators
* Nonstop Action -- Hundreds of hours of classic gameplay action
* DVD Content -- Creator and developer interviews and game histories
* Multiplayer Gameplay -- One- and two-player gameplay

Yeah, I'll drop the $50 on that, and it might even be less.

The inidividual games are old arcade and NES games. The article came from Planet Gamecube so I would assume the GCN. And since it didn't mention any other systems I would assume only the GCN...

So why is this in The Dungeon forum andnot the GCN forum?

I see no reason to leave it on so It probably will, for better sales.

I like aout 4 games on there, so I may get it when its cheap.

Oh Yeah.

Joust and Joust 2 but not Gauntlet 2?

And no Moon Patrol? Tapper?? or BURGER TIME?????WTF?

Not sure if midway owns those now, but they did back when I got them on a collection with spy hunter and a few other games back for the PSX.

I was thinking this would be on PS2 and XBox, rather than Gamecube (especially GC alone). The little bit at the end that claims DVD content makes me think so. While the Gamecube has the ability to play a form of video, I'm not sure about "DVD".

I think by DVD, they don't literally mean a DVD, just DVD like extras...

i think this game will probably be multiplatform, just because the system requirements for such old games are so minimal.
