Arcade Classics for the Sega Game Gear is a collection of three early arcade hits by Atari Corporation. The games included are Ultrapong, Centipede, and Missile Command. There is also an equivalent to this collection for the Sega Mega Drive/Genesis.
[edit] Games
Ultrapong is a version of Pong, the first hit video game from the 1970s, both in arcades and at home. Atari's early success hinged on this game.
Centipede was the first major video game designed by a woman, and proved to have a broader appeal than the more militaristic games that came before it.
Missile Command was among the most popular video games of all time. It remains popular today.
[edit] Graphics
The opening graphics are well-drawn, while the graphics within the individual games resemble the original early arcade games.
