Each of the games runs smoothly, features crisp controls and should satisfy anyone who has been aching to play Lunar Rescue on the bus. However, the fudged features and in-room only multiplayer are big issues considering that there's a handful of compilations out there letting folks play each other online at will.

If you can overlook Taito's rather calculated and wholly predictable decision to pack out this collection with filler material, then there's a decent amount of quality retro gems to get your teeth into when you've got a few minutes to fill. Sadly though, most of Taito's real big hitters that would have made this an instant must-have aren't here.

Entertaining, sure, but by no means legendary. [Issue 145, p.87]

Even those overhauled versions can't make up for the fact that Taito has left out "Bubble Bobble." Oh dear. [Christmas 2006, p.87]

Aside from these few minor niggles, Taito Legends: Power Up is a perfectly acceptable package of arcade classics. At the same time, this is all that Taito Legends is and unless you really do feel the need to play Space Invaders all over again, there’s little point investing in what is simply another incarnation of the retro cash cow.

No matter how good the memories, almost all of these games are now rubbish. [Nov 2006, p.87]
