In general, the compilation just feels slightly “not enough.” While a handful of the games do feature a multiplayer mode, game sharing from a single UMD is not an option. Certainly they look and sound great on the PSP including a tate mode for select games, but the selection can feel a bit sparse (especially when considering the overlap of Asteroids/Asteroids Deluxe and Centipede/Millipede).

The added features include a wonderful menu system which lets you thumb through a virtual collection of 2600 carts, a classic 1980’s soundtrack for that extra bit of nostalgia, as well as the ability to enable save states in each game. This is of course a good thing for retro enthusiasts. The “remixed” part of the title is a bit of a misnomer, as the games themselves have not been altered.

Considering what a wonderfully cheap handheld it is to collect for (at least domestically), you can actually build up a rather impressive retro library with just a pocket full of spending money and a small stack of UMD’s. But for those of us who are more interested in collecting physical media, it should be noted that the PSP is also a great system to showcase various retro compilations. The PSP is no doubt a bit of an emulator powerhouse.
