Once you’ve highlighted your game of choice, you have several options available: you can jump into the game, view the manual, change options, or if the game supports it, connect to the online leaderboards to see who has the highest score around. Thankfully though, discovering the games is easy, with it split into two distinct displays the first is that all the arcade games are listed alphabetically, then the home console games in the same way, meaning that if you know your alphabet, you can jump to the right page without too much hassle. The collection does cover the Arcade releases, 2600, and 5200, which is why you get a few copies of the same game - their hardware differences aside, the core gameplay is the same. It is important to understand that whilst Atari claim there are 150 games on the collection, it is more accurate to state that there are 150 selectable listings, but only 125 unique games, as you can get doubles of Centipede and Asteroids, as well as ‘games’ like basic math.
With the announcement of the Atari Flashback Classics for Switch, I was split - it was either going to be the best value for money, or the nostalgia glasses would descend, and I would be trying to convince myself that the games still held up.
