The game was well received, with the Official UK PlayStation Magazine saying that it was "the best retro collection to date", but that most of the games failed to hold their own in the 1990s. They noted that Marble Madness played better with a joypad than with the original trackball, and that Paperboy was the highlight.
Trivia
- Gauntlet, Marble Madness, Paperboy, and RoadBlasters can be found on Midway Arcade Treasures for PlayStation 2, Xbox, Nintendo GameCube, and PC. Crystal Castles and Millipede can be found on Atari Anthology for PlayStation 2, Xbox, and PC.
- The menu for the compilation is very similar in theme to Marble Madness.
