Play Williams Arcade?s Greatest Hits Online

Williams Arcade's Greatest Hits came out for the Sega Genesis in 1996, published by Williams Entertainment Inc. It was a solid collection to have during that period, a time when having a few classic arcade games at home was a real treat. This compilation gathered several of Williams' well known arcade titles into one cartridge, which was a straightforward and appealing idea for anyone who had spent time in arcades.

You control different characters depending on the game you select, from the warrior in Joust to the ship in Defender. Your main objective is simply to survive and score as many points as possible across these distinct challenges. Signature mechanics include the unique two button control scheme in Robotron: 2084, where one button moves your character and the other fires independently in any direction, and the frantic, screen by screen monster clearing of Smash TV. The pacing is almost always intense, and the difficulty is unrelenting, demanding quick reflexes and constant attention. It feels like a direct, sometimes brutal, connection to the arcade experience of the early 80s.
