Midway's Greatest Arcade Hits is a series of arcade game compilations released for the Nintendo 64, PlayStation, Sega Dreamcast and Game Boy Advance. All versions of the game were not well-received by critics.

[edit] Gameplay

The Game Boy Advance version contains the four Williams-produced games Defender, Sinistar, Robotron 2084, and Joust.[1] The Nintendo 64 version includes all of the above plus the games Spy Hunter and Tapper.[2]

[edit] Sinistar

The game Sinistar was altered from its original arcade form for the GBA version. His eyes no longer glow and his mouth never moves during gameplay (it does on the game over screen). He only says "I am Sinistar!" at the title screen. Occasionally during gameplay, he will say "Run! Run! Run!". Upon receiving a game over, he will say "Beware! I live!". Other than that, he says nothing.
