Midway released Arcade's Greatest Hits: The Atari Collection 1 for the Super Nintendo Entertainment System in 1997. This compilation arrived late in the SNES lifecycle, offering a convenient way to experience a handful of coin-op classics from the previous decade without needing a pocketful of quarters.

You control different vehicles and characters across the six included games, with the main objective being to achieve a high score in each. In Asteroids, you rotate and thrust a triangular ship, blasting floating rocks into smaller pieces while avoiding collisions. Tempest has you guiding a claw-like ship along the edge of geometric tunnels, zapping enemies as they crawl toward you. The pacing is generally fast and the difficulty quickly escalates, demanding quick reflexes and memorization of enemy patterns. Playing this collection feels like a direct, sometimes brutally challenging, conversation with gaming's early arcade history.
