    Bought this as a way to own and play Phantasy Star II - IV and the Shining Force JRPG’s. Played a bit of Shining Force and Phantasy Star II and they played fantastic. Love having the quality of life features (save states, rewind and fast forward, visual preferences, etc). Being able to have these to play on my Switch is more than enough for me. Glad to have it in my collection!

    This is great! If you were an 80s/90s kid this is a necessity - you are able to relive some of the best childhood memories on the go with the switch. The menu is a bit clunky but overall this is a fantastic port.

    Everything runs great it's lacking some awesome games like Sonic 3, Earthworm Jim, Echo the Dolphin, and maybe Maximum Carnage. Otherwise pretty solid collection. Love how you select games from a shelf in a room in their UI.

    After playing the SNES classic, I was excited about this game, but honestly it just doesn't hold up as well. There are some gems if you are into RPGs, but I barely recognize a lot of the other games.
