Sega Vintage Collection out on XBLA

If you're in the mood to do some good ol' retro gaming on your Xbox 360, you're in luck. A few classics popped up on Xbox Live Arcade today as part of Sega Vintage Collection.

The first set is Alex Kidd & Co., which includes Alex Kidd in Miracle World, Super Hang-on, and The Revenge of Shinobi. The games include Achievements, trial modes, 3D mode for Super Hang-on, in-game music player, and original Japanese dialogue. Additionally, players will be able to record and download their game sessions. Sweet!

The second collection of Sega titles features Wonder Boy in Monster Land, Wonder Boy in Monster World, and Monster World IV. That last one is especially noteworthy since it was previously only released in Japan. Now, though, it's available across all three home consoles. These titles also include Achievements, trial modes, and that nifty record/download feature. Also, leaderboards.

Both of these Sega Vintage Collection sets are priced at 800 Microsoft Points. I'd recommend them mainly because I strongly believe that more people should be doing some awesome retro gaming.
