The GBA games were added as a bonus, because we had the ability to do so; the core of this collection remains exploring the arcade era. But we figured it'd be fun to sneak in a few extras if we could. Plenty of other games to check out if that one's not for you! 😊
i for one appreciate the inclusion of some handheld titles. they’re often tragically overlooked in compilations and as a result, a lot of people tend to miss out the kind of creativity that goes into a handheld remake.
It’s just too bad Game Gear versions aren’t shown in the trailer. It would have been nice to have both Gameboy *and* Game Gear versions.
Don't worry -- you'll get to play the Game Gear version of Mortal Kombat soon! :)
if anything, it’s actually what sold me on this collection.
I actually love that more compilations have been including old handheld games, because many of those versions have never been offered a second time. They provide a really interesting historical window in that regard.
Any chances the mk4 get the gold version update?
Here's hoping a 3D Era collection is possible in the future. Deadly Alliance + Deception + Shaolin Monks + Armageddon, and including Unchained as a bonus. I'd buy that for a dollar!
We hope the same thing! We'd love that opportunity someday.
I hope the collection does well, so that every version gets added, including Nitro, Mac and 3DO versions of MK3 and umk3, respectively
I’ll always appreciate game collections that include handheld versions of said games for preservation and extras goodies for the whole package.
Any chance of Trilogy 64 being added down the road?
