Not only did SNK release a bunch of pre-Neo-Geo arcade classic as PS Minis, they also added two new games for the Neo Geo Station on PS3. So for the final day of SNK Summer School, we’ll take a quick look at Baseball Stars 2 and King of Fighters 95.
SNK Summer School: Guerilla War (PS Minis)
Posted on July 27th, 2011 by
Last of the old SNK pre-Neo-Geo arcade classics that are now available to download on PS3 and PSP as PS Minis is Guerilla War. It was a 2-D vertically scrolling shooter starring two army dudes as they shot guns and threw grenades at enemies in fortified jungle fortresses. So basically, Ikari Warriors with better graphics.
SNK Summer School: Ikari Warriors (PS Minis)

Out of all the old SNK pre-Neo-Geo arcade classics that are now available to download on PS3 and PSP as PS Minis, I bet Ikari Warriors will be the most downloaded. It was a 2-D vertically scrolling shooter starring two Rambo-esque army dudes as they shot guns and threw grenades at enemies in fortified jungle fortresses.
SNK Summer School: Athena (PS Minis)

Next in our look at old SNK pre-Neo-Geo arcade classics that are now available to download on PS3 and PSP as PS Minis is Athena. It’s a colorful 2-D platformer starring one of SNK’s most popular characters.
SNK Summer School: Marvin’s Maze (PS Minis)
Posted on July 24th, 2011 by
Out of all the old SNK pre-Neo-Geo arcade classics that are now available to download on PS3 and PSP as PS Minis, I think Marvin’s Maze is my favorite. Of course, that comes as no surprise, since I’m a huge Pac-Man fan, and Marvin’s Maze is just a Pac-Man clone. But it’s a pretty good one.
SNK Summer School: HAL 21 (PS Minis)
Posted on July 23rd, 2011 by
Next in our look at old SNK pre-Neo-Geo arcade classics that are now available to download on PS3 and PSP as PS Minis is HAL 21. It’s a vertically scrolling classic 2-D shooter that bears more than a passing resemblance to Xevious.
SNK Summer School: Sasuke Vs. Commander (PS Minis)
Posted on July 22nd, 2011 by
The third in our look at old SNK pre-Neo-Geo arcade classics that are now available to download on PS3 and PSP as PS Minis is Sasuke Vs. Commander. Ever heard of Satan’s Hollow? It was a single screen shooter similar to Galaga, except the space ships and alien bugs were replaced with a fantasy background and demon enemies. Sasuke Vs. Commander is a lot like that, except it has a Japanese ninja motif.
SNK Summer School: Vanguard (PS Minis)
Posted on July 21st, 2011 by
Next up in our look at old SNK pre-Neo-Geo arcade classics that are now available to download on PS3 and PSP as PS Minis is Vanguard. It’s an old scrolling arcade shooter from the early 80’s.

When people see game maker SNK, they usually think of the Neo-Geo. But did you know they were making arcade games long before that? A large batch of their early pre-Neo-Geo arcade games have been recently released on the PS3 and PSP in the form of downloadable PS Minis. So every day for the next week, we’ll take a look at each one! First up is Ozma Wars, a very early arcade shooter.
