Is Capcom Classics Collection Vol. 1 still worth playing in 2026?
A Capcom compilation, Capcom Classics Collection Vol. 1 gathers around twenty of the studio's arcade classics, from the shooters 1942 and 1943 to the beat 'em ups Final Fight and Captain Commando, by way of Ghosts'n Goblins and Street Fighter II. The faithful emulation, the display options and the bonuses make it a reference heritage anthology. The absence of modern frills and the period difficulty call for a taste for retro. An excellent compilation to recommend for fans of retrogaming and Capcom arcade history.
