Arcade Classics was panned by critics. Reviews commented that Arcade Classics includes very few games compared to other retro compilations,[1][2][3] that it fails to recreate the experience the games offered in the arcades,[1][2] that the "enhanced" versions offer nothing but mild cosmetic changes,[1][2][3] and that the overly "busy" backgrounds in the enhanced version of Centipede interfere with the gameplay.[1][3]
gollark: I guess there's no technical reason I couldn't make it try and measure things on an axis from palaiologistic to gollarious, but I don't know how well this would work.
gollark: Well, there are legal and ethical issues with just harvesting random messages off here.
gollark: Ah, 4.1MB.
gollark: I have palaiologos data, but a lot less.
gollark: I have something like 15MB of gollarious data, the issue is getting contragollarious data from similar contexts.
