A video game compilation is a type of product bundling in which different video games are available for purchase as a special collection. They are often stored on the same physical media or digital package, making use of menu interfaces that allow players to select the game they want to play. They are a form of video game preservation.
History
The Nintendo Entertainment System received official multicart compilations that re-released earlier games, such as Super Mario Bros. / Duck Hunt / World Class Track Meet. In the early 1990s, Codemasters, an unlicensed publisher, used multicarts to release brand new games in their Quattro compilations. Action 52, released by Active Enterprises, is infamous for its low quality. Pirate Nintendo compilations often included ROM hacks that replaced character sprites.
In the 1990s, video game consoles saw compilations of older arcade games, such as Arcade's Greatest Hits and Williams Arcade's Greatest Hits, while Windows computers received compilations of console games, such as the Sonic & Knuckles Collection. Three Wonders is unusual for a 1991 arcade machine for being a compilation of three games.
Renewed interest in retrogaming has motivated the release of multiple compilations in the 2010s and 2020s, such as Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: The Cowabunga Collection and the Irem Collection series.
