[edit] Games
Arcade Advanced is a compilation of six popular Konami games from the 1980s, including Rush'n Attack, Frogger, Gyruss, Time Pilot, Scramble, and Yie Ar Kung-Fu. Besides being arcade games, most of these have also been quite popular on home consoles. The games themselves are very accurate ports, with some minor exceptions.
[edit] Konami Code
The famous Konami Code can be used in this game to enhance each of the games. Of particular note, the code turns the one-player version of Frogger from graphics and sound similar to that of the original Golden Age arcade game to a thoroughly modern graphical and musical update, like that found in the two-player mode. In Scramble the code allows you to choose between three different ships and play a more updated version. In Time Pilot it allows you to rapidly fire your gun by holding down the fire button, and offers a sixth stage set in 1,000,000BC. In Yie Ar Kung-Fu the code lets you to fight two extra opponents, Bishu and Clayman.
