Oct 27, 2021NEOGEO Pocket Selection is a good collection for those who were fans of the System and those who are curious about the system. While the selection is a bit lacking, all of the games play well and offer great fun and challenge. It’s lack of extras and bare bones presentation may put off some, but many should be able to look past that and enjoy the games they have included. Some games like Dark Arms and Crush Roller are a miss, but others will keep pulling you back even after you beat them. Even with its shortcomings, I can recommend this collection to anyone looking for some nostalgic challenge.

Oct 18, 2021While SNK Vs Capcom: The Match of the Millennium being replaced by Crush Roller in this collection is disappointing, Neo Geo Pocket Color Selection Vol 1 Steam Edition is still great value and it shines thanks to Steam's Remote Play Together feature letting you play online with friends.

Oct 28, 2021Overall this collection does add some value and for a very niche system it makes it accessible to more people who may have missed out on the original release.

Oct 14, 2021It’s hard to complain about a ten-game collection where every game is at least good. The NeoGeo Pocket Color Selection Vol. 1 is a fascinating look back at a system that deserved better. With few games that are truly essential, though, and many of them having better versions out there, it’s also not a must-own. For those who have fond memories of these games, or who are just interested in checking out a sadly forgotten device, though, check it out.
