Hamster has done a sterling job in faithfully reproducing classic arcade game masterpieces with its Arcade Archives series. Now the company is focussing its efforts on the new retro series Console Archives and is planning an extraordinary amount of ports. Hamster’s CEO and founder, Satoshi Hamada, said that Arcade Archives had a target of 800 and they have achieved over 500 and they want to beat that with Console Archives.
“Arcade Archives had a target of 800, and we’ve already done over 500. For Console Archives we want to beat that. Actually, now we feel like 800 titles should just be a point we pass along the way. Just in terms of the number of titles, there are a lot more home console games than arcade games, so we want to make a series where we can go further.”
