Gaming Age reviews
 Taito Legends review: It's that time of the season again – try to find something for the old man that he doesn't already own. Collections of old school arcade games are always a safe bet, particularly at $20. Space Invaders needs no further justification for ownership. -- Ernie Halal

 Taito Legends review: There’s not a lot here, but there’s easily enough to satisfy. If you have fond memories of the arcade, have a sibling that stinks at games or just want a solid collection of games then Taito Legends is for you. Author: Jared Thorbahn   aka: thorbahn3

 Taito Legends review: Most games load in the blink of an eye - another bonus.There's nothing here that'll keep you glued like, say, a good RPG, but there's plenty to dip in and out of for the odd half hour. One of the Double Dragon games, or perhaps an early Bust-a-Move would have been nice, but we can't have everything. Besides, further collections are planned.

 Taito Legends review: The lack of light gun support drags down Operation Wolf, but with games like Elevator Action and Bubble Bobble on board, Taito Legends offers good classic arcade action at a budget price.

 Taito Legends review: Enough classic titles and nostalgia to drive you mad. Thank you, Taito.
Gamer Feed reviews 90%
 Taito Legends review: + 29 games for $20? And most of them are good? Get outta here!+ A return of several long-lost favorites in almost-perfect format, including Elevator Action, Zoo Keeper, and Ninja Kids.+ Great historical extras, including interviews translated into English and other pieces of interest.+/- The gun games have no support for the third party guns, but they still manage to control well nonetheless.
GameSpy reviews 70%
 Taito Legends review: This is especially noticeable since the release of the Taito Memories games, which include good to great titles like Darius Gaiden, G-Darius, Cadash, RayStorm, Elevator Action Returns, Genkirenden and Puzzle Bobble. I'd gladly have given up ancient mediocrities like Tokio and Great Swordsman and garbage like the newly cursor-driven light gun games (ugh) for a few of those.
