In my opinion this is the better of the two Konami Classics discs, but that isn't saying much. In theory the Konami Classics sound fun but they will likely only hold your attention for a very short period of time.
The most annoying factor is that the games are played on a small screen with borders around it (at least playing on a widescreen TV) which is unacceptable.
Frogger is fun for a few minutes while Super Contra is quite challenging (but in my opinion inferior to Contra which is on Volume 2, however considering it too is played on a miniature screen it's not worth playing).
Castlevania: Symphony of Night, however, is the best game on both Konami discs. The Playstation game looks wonderful and plays great to this day. Unfortunately, once again the small screen is a hindrance.
I'd rate Castlevania a 9/10, however the disc as a whole is pretty useless.
