Capcom Classics Reloaded is a compilation title developed and published by Capcom, released in 2006 for the PlayStation Portable. It features a curated selection of 15 arcade games from Capcom’s 1980s catalog, offering players a portable way to experience classic coin-operated titles.
The compilation includes well-known games such as Street Fighter II: The World Warrior, Ghosts ’n Goblins, Commando, 1942, and Eco Fighters, among others. Each game retains its original gameplay and visuals, with added customization options including adjustable difficulty settings, display filters, and button remapping. The package also includes unlockable content like artwork and music tracks.
The PSP version supports ad hoc wireless multiplayer for select games, allowing head-to-head play in titles like Street Fighter II. A save/load function and achievements-like challenges called “Goals” were added to enhance replayability.
Critics generally praised the compilation for its authentic emulation and solid selection of games, although some noted overlap with other Capcom collections and a lack of deeper extras. It was seen as a strong entry for retro gaming fans looking to relive arcade classics on a handheld.
