SNK Arcade Classics Vol. 1

SNK Arcade Classics Vol. 1 is a video game compilation published by SNK Playmore which includes sixteen of their earlier Neo Geo games.

The compilation was released on the PlayStation 2, PlayStation Portable (PSP) (SONY), and the Wii Virtual Console (Nintendo). Several of the included games have been previously individually released via the Wii Virtual Console. Loading issues have been addressed for the Wii disc release.

Between the three versions, the Wii version is considered the definitive one. The PS2 and PSP versions had considerable amounts of slowdown (especially with Shock Troopers on the PSP), compared to the slowdown-free Wii version. The Wii version also supported 480p and 4 different control schemes.

Each game also comes with 8 challenges that when completed award the player with a Medal, getting Medals unlocks Concept Art, Music, Movelists and the final game of the compilation, World Heroes 1.
