SNK has confirmed a pretty damn cool list of titles to be included in its new retro compilation title, SNK Arcade Classics Vol. 1, headed for Wii as well as PS2 and PSP.
Metal Slug, Samurai Shodown and King of Fighters 94' sit at the top of our favourites list, although if you own a Wii you can already grab all three of those on the UK Virtual Console for 900 Wii Points - about £6.50.
But it's decent news for retro-loving PS2 and PSP owners. Here's the full list, and 16 nostalgic screens below.
ART OF FIGHTING - The first fighting game to introduce the then new Spirit Gauge, Super Special Moves, use of the 'zoom in/zoom out' function and battle damage to the characters faces.
BASEBALL STARS 2 - The sequel to the very popular Baseball arcade game.
BURNING FIGHT - Battle organised crime in the streets of New York in the side
scrolling fighter.
FATAL FURY - The first of SNK's fighting franchises to use the NEOGEO MVS System.
KING OF THE FIGHTERS '94 - This is where the KOF phenomenon began.
KING OF THE MONSTERS - Giant monsters, Destruction and mayhem in Japan.
LAST RESORT - Take on hordes of enemies in the popular futuristic shooter.
MAGICIAN LORD - SNK's classic platformer, pits you as the heroic wizard Elta.
METAL SLUG
this series has long been regarded as the bench mark of side
scrolling purity, now see why!
NEO TURF MASTERS - Can you get a hole in one?
SAMURAI SHODOWN - The first title in SNK's hugely popular weapons based fighter.
SENGOKU - Fight the undead, in feudal Japan.
SHOCK TROOPERS - Fast paced action and lots and lots of bullets in this run and gun adventure.
SUPER SIDEKICKS 3 - We all love football - so does SNK!
TOP HUNTER - In this futuristic platformer, you play as Roddy or Cathy, as you protect the Colonists from the threat of the Space Pirates.
WORLD HEROES - Take on the greatest fighters throughout time in this popular fighter.
