Sure thing, let’s dive into this wonderful chaos.

Alright, imagine this: a trip back to those arcade days, when coins clinked like a mini symphony in your pocket. Now, whether you know those days or not, this new thing, the Irem Collection Volume 3, has dropped like a blast from the past—digitally, of course. Yeah, I know, everything’s digital now. Pretty cool, though, if you’re into that kinda thing.
So, what’s the scoop here? Well, ININ, Tozai Games, and, you guessed it, Irem, bundled up some retro shooters, like Mr. Heli from ’87. I mean, back when shoulder pads were a thing! It’s this cute… what do they call it? Cute ‘em up? Y’know, with scrolling in every direction like it has a mind of its own. And don’t get me started on Mystic Riders from ‘92—boomerangs and dodge-rolls, anyone? Somehow, dragons and shoot ‘em ups just make sense together.
And, oh! Dragon Breed. Imagine riding a gigantic, flame-belching beast. Probably smells like burnt toast crossed with singed hair. It’s like R-Type’s fantasy cousin. Back then, nobody gave these games a second glance, but today? Hidden gems, my friend. Hidden. Gems.
Now, yeah, they’re tricky games. Designed to, uh, eat your quarters like candy. So they went ahead and tossed in some options for us—modern folks who might need a break now and then. You can remap controls, which sounds fancy. Just put the buttons wherever you fancy, I guess.
You even have this autofire thing because, let’s be honest, who needs a tired thumb? There are other tweaks, too. Like, wanna mess with difficulty levels? Sure, go nuts! Need to save midway because life calls? They’ve got you.
And visuals? They’ve been given a facelift, you could say. Fancy filters and whatnot—like framing a photo just right. As far as leaderboards, well, you can now see how your scores measure up around the globe. Because, honestly, who doesn’t want bragging rights?
Anyway, these games are on the Xbox One, Series X|S. Oh, and just FYI, Volumes 1 and 2 are kicking around too if you’re feeling extra nostalgic. Curious about all this arcade magic? Go ahead, dive in. Just don’t blame me if you end up losing track of time.
So there it is, sounds worth a try, huh? Yep, the Irem Collection Volume 3—magical mayhem packed into pixels. Happy gaming!
