Game Description
This is not just a retro game collection, it is an arcade time machine. Midway Arcade Treasures brings a powerhouse lineup of classic coin-op legends to the Nintendo GameCube, packing 24 arcade games spanning twitch shooters, maze action, racing, puzzle chaos, fantasy dungeon crawling, and some of the most recognizable names in arcade history.
