Summary
Activision Anthology on the Game Boy Advance is a treasure‑trove of Atari 2600 classics, packing 45 titles into a single cartridge. The collection lets you flip through a virtual child’s bedroom menu, spin a rotating stand of cartridges, and even watch the games projected onto a rotating cube for a quirky visual twist. While the GBA version skips the in‑game music of its console siblings, it does feature four custom 80s‑style tracks that play while you browse the menu. The anthology includes well‑known hits like Pitfall!, River Raid, and H.E.R.O., plus rarities such as the previously unreleased Kabobber and Thwocker. Seven homebrew games make an appearance here, though the compilation omits the 19 Imagic titles and the original Commando. Extras like original manuals, trivia, and cartridge‑view 3D renders round out the experience, giving a nostalgic yet fresh feel to these vintage arcade adventures.
Storyline
Activision Anthology for the Game Boy Advance is a retro‑gaming treasure chest that bundles 45 classic Atari 2600 titles into one cartridge. In addition to the original games, the collection adds new gameplay modes, trivia sections, the original manuals, 3D views of each cartridge and licensed eighties music tracks. The lineup includes well‑known hits such as Pitfall!, River Raid, Enduro, and H.E.R.O., as well as lesser‑known gems like Cosmic Commuter, Kabobber and Thwocker, the latter two being previously unreleased. Other highlights are Atlantis, Boxing, Decathlon, Megamania, and Space Shuttle, giving players a broad taste of early arcade action. Unlike the PSP version and the PC/Mac Remix Edition, this GBA anthology does not feature any homebrew titles, keeping the focus on Activision’s original library.
