Aug 15, 2025If there’s a criticism to be leveled at Toaplan Arcade Collection Vol. 2, it’s the same one that lingered over its predecessor: the absence of supplemental materials. No developer interviews, no cabinet artwork, no design documents. There’s nothing that contextualizes these releases beyond the games themselves. For a studio with such an influential legacy, these kinds of extras would have enhanced the package immensely. And while this second volume offers more variety than the first, some may find the overall impact slightly diminished, especially if they consider Batsugun from Vol. 1 as Toaplan’s crown jewel.

Aug 15, 2025Overall, TOAPLAN Arcade Collection Vol 1 & 2 covers the heyday of TOAPLAN’s arcade shmup output. It’s also a comprehensive collection, including the international variants for each of these classic arcade games. Although I suspect Zero Wing’s appalling localization will still be a draw for some of the old school fans.
