is a 1995 arcade game compilation developed and published by Namco. It includes three of the company's most well-known games from the early 1980s — Galaga (1981), Xevious (1983), and Mappy (1983) — alongside brand-new "Arrangement" remakes of these games that have updated gameplay, visuals, and sounds. The arcade originals are also modified slightly to end after a certain number of rounds. Super Xevious (1984) is also playable.

The original arcade games have been reprogrammed from scratch, and feature many of the same bugs and glitches present in their predecessors. Additionally, they end after a set number of rounds, featuring a proper ending sequence and credit roll. Super Xevious (1984), a Japan-exclusive update to the original Xevious, can also be played through the Xevious selection screen. The three Arrangement games feature updated visuals, gameplay, and sound, alongside the addition of two-player co-operative play.
