Good game compilation, but don't pay a whole lot for it unless you're really after one of the few vintage titles on this disc. Comes with Castlevania (Symphony of the Night), Super Contra, and Frogger (an admittedly odd trio of games, 2 shooters and Frogger?!?). More than likely, you're after at least one of the titles, and the rest are bonuses really. Considering there are two volumes to this, it's a bit odd they put Super Contra on the 1st one, and Contra on the 2nd one. (???) Game play is just fine for all, no complaints there really. If you don't own this in some other format (for a different game console), it's nice to have simple side-scrollers to play every once in a while. For me, Castlevania was the reason for purchase, but Frogger is fun for the girls, and there's nothing wrong with wasting aliens in Super Contra. I'd put this in a $10-$15 optimal cost range, pay any more, and you might want to put your money somewhere else (again, unless you are a die-hard for any of the three titles, then - have at it, what are you waiting for?). = )Read full review
I bought this game only for the Super Contra game, which I have looked for, for years, and remember playing at a wal mart as a kid. I already had the Castlevania game for the playstation, but will say if you don't it is one of the best Castlevanias of all time, although the play is a little harder from the original game. The frogger game is basic. I was ready to buy an actual arcade cabinet for the super contra game, this has saved me several hundred, if not thousands of dollars.
The reviews online about it are true. I mainly bought it for Castlevania SOTN. The gameplay was very well designed back then, and it still holds up well today. The other games Contra and Frogger are good cherries on top but draw hours of attention for.
