Sega Vintage Collection: Alex Kidd & Co., known in Japan as Sega Classics Collection (セガクラシックコレクション), is a compilation consisting of three games for Xbox Live Arcade. It was released as part of the Sega Vintage Collection and Sega Ages Online series.

These games were released separately on the PlayStation Network service on the PlayStation 3 at about the same time.

Games included

Gameplay

The game select menu, with The Revenge of Shinobi highlighted.

All of the games in the collection have a variety of additional features, such as the ability to save and load savestates, settings to change the display and use decorative wallpapers to fill the screen borders, and being able to save replays of the player's sessions to be played back later. The collection also include multiple regional versions of each game, and the player can freely choose which version they would like to play in the settings.

Also included is a Jukebox, which allows the player to listen to the music in each of the games. Songs are sorted by game and can be played continuously or shuffled. The player can also add songs to a custom playlist, and up to 100 songs can be added to the playlist at a time.

This compilation uses the 2009 version of The Revenge of Shinobi that was previously released on the Wii Virtual Console. Stereoscopic 3D support was also added to Super Hang-On, allowing the game to be played with 3D visuals on supported televisions.

Trials

Each of the Sega Vintage Collection/Sega Ages Online collections include "Trials", which challenge the player to complete specific objectives with special rules and aim for the best time or score they can. Completed runs can be uploaded to online leaderboards, and replays of the best runs can be downloaded and played back. The player cannot pause the game during a trial, and must stop the trial in order to access the Pause Menu.

Further information: This was collaged from the PS3 versions, and the 360 version will need verifying - I couldn't buy the 360 version of Alex Kidd & Co. before it was delisted, so I have no way of verifying. --SorachiJirachi (talk) 17:17, 16 August 2024 (EDT)
