Out November 9th, looks like the game list is SNK vs. Capcom: Card Fighters Clash, Big Bang Pro Wrestling, Biomotor Unitron, Mega Man Battle & Fighters, Baseball Stars Color, Pocket Tennis Color, Puzzle Link, Neo Geo Cup '98 Plus Color, The King of Fighters: Battle de Paradise, and Ganbare Neo Poke-Kun based on a cursory search.

That is an amazing and eclectic assortment. I’m especially glad to see Puzzle Link, which is the type of B-tier game that tends to be forgotten but is unique and fun enough that it deserves to be accessible. I’d rather see Puzzle Link 2, but I’m sure if they keep going with this project it’ll see release.

Battle de Paradise is unplayable if you don’t know Japanese, so I’m curious if it was in the pipeline for localization back in the day or if they’re just putting the original on there.

I swear, they had better get Delta Warp out there before this project is done. That game needs to escape being stranded on a doomed platform.

Note that SNK hasn't confirmed the game list; I just made guesses based on the artwork. It could be Puzzle Link 2!

Faselei! is really good. I got super lucky scoring a copy back in the day, and finally finished it a few years ago.

Confirmed, they are indeed going with Puzzle Link 2! Also, Battle de Paradise is only in Japanese, so it's not going to be easy to play if you don't understand it. It's a Mario Party-type game. There is a guide on GameFAQs that explains it, at least. Here's hoping the collection itself has some documentation.

Big Bang Pro Wrestling is an very good little FiPro clone, and fairly expensive now. Mega Man is VERY expensive now. Buying this collection is getting a lot of pricey carts for a song. Totally worth it.

What kind of song are we singing here? I mean, if it's a progressive rock epic that covers half the disc, I don't think I can afford that.

I’m annoyed about the European one because it has a physical version of Card Fighters but you’d need to buy both versions of the edition to get all the cards 😤

I ordered the Capcom edition from Pix'N Love but I can't say I'm particularly pleased that I have to buy the entire set again for the SNK ones. *sigh*

That's one part of the experience I wasn't nostalgic for... two releases of the same game with exclusive content in each. Just because it works for Pokemon doesn't mean I want it in a twenty plus year old game. Or pair of games.

Literally my only inclination for wanting the physical is to be a part of my Mega Man collection. Which leaves me the quandary: regular or collector's?
