When the Capcom Classics Collection was released a great cry went up: “Where is Strider?” Capcom has answered that question with the announcement of Capcom Classics Collection Remixed for the PSP. Those that have CCC for the PS2 or Xbox have already seen the trailer for this new edition (and the inclusion of the aforementioned Strider). But for those of you without that prime piece of past gaming, you’ll want to know that CCC Remixed will appear on the PSP next March.

So what will this collection entail? Capcom has promised twenty titles will make up Remixed including these confirmed blasts from the past:

1941 – A vertical shooter that challenges player to shoot down enemy fighters, buildings, ships and vehicles.

Avengers – A unique top down, vertically scrolling beat ‘em up has players roving through the gang riddled streets of Paradise City in search of the ring leader who has taken hostages.

Block Block – An innovative twist to the block breaking genre, Block Block features a two player co-op mode, allowing for the cooperative destruction of blocks. Also unique to this title was the constantly shrinking paddle that forced player to finish each board as quickly as possible.

Captain Commando – Following in the footsteps of several great side-scrolling brawler titles, this four player co-op game tracks the adventures of four intergalactic space rangers who must enforce peace throughout the galaxy.

Magic Sword – An intense side-scrolling game that takes players through 50 levels of the ominous Dragon Tower in order to defeat the evil Drokkmar.

Quiz and Dragons – The most innovative quiz game of its time which features integrated RGP style gameplay. Taking place on a virtual board game, players would roll the dice to determine their progression. A battle would ensue if characters landed on an enemy. Knowledge is power as quizzes are provided with each confronted challenger. Answering correctly is a strike against the enemy. A wrong answer is a strike against the player.

Street Fighter – The game that started the entire fighting phenomenon and created a generation of video game brawlers. The first Capcom fighting game only had two playable characters, Ken and Ryu, who would travel the world to compete in martial arts tournaments.

Strider – An inventive action platform game that follows Strider Hiryu who must save the earth from the clutches of the evil Grandmaster Meio and his minions.

Three Wonders – A compilation of three games in one that covered three different genres: horizontal scrolling platformer (Midnight Wanders), horizontal scrolling shooter (Chariot) and a puzzle game (Don’t Pull).

Varth – A scrolling aerial vertical shooter that has players in the cockpit of a plane firing shots on the offensive or defensive.

Like its big brother, Remixed will include unlockable artwork and remixed music. Ad-Hoc networking also allows players to jump in and out of multiplayer games at any time, just like a real arcade.

Finally, the PSP’s wide screen will also offer up some interesting screen options with Regular Mode, Stretched Mode and Vertical Mode.
