#7. Namco Museum
- Release Data: Mass Media/Namco, 2002
- Genre: Casual » Compilation
If you don’t own any of these games or other versions of the Namco Museum series, or if you’re a fan of the arranged games that make their home debut in this package, then this game will satiate your appetite for classic gaming.
#6. Midway Arcade Treasures 2
- Release Data: Backbone Entertainment/Midway, 2004

Midway Arcade Treasures 2 isn’t perfect.
It has its little glitches and problems here and there, but the bonus material is nice and most of the games are nearly identical to the arcade originals that they’re trying to duplicate.
The number of great games makes Midway Arcade Treasures 2 worth owning if you’re a fan of Midway’s back catalog.
#5. Midway Arcade Treasures

- Genre: Casual » Compilation
Midway Arcade Treasures has all the ingredients to make a great compilation, but you can’t help but feel that a better job could have been done if everything worked correctly.

#4. Sonic Mega Collection
- Release Data: Sonic Team/Sega, 2002
