The collection features excellent emulation quality, with smooth gameplay and a stylish presentation that captures the nostalgic feel of the Neo Geo Pocket Color.
It includes a diverse lineup of games across various genres, showcasing inventive game design from the late 1990s and early 2000s, making it a more complete representation of the platform's capabilities.
The addition of quality-of-life features, such as save/load options and the ability to access original manuals, enhances the overall experience for modern players.

Several games lack English translations, making it difficult for non-Japanese players to fully enjoy titles that require understanding of in-game dialogue and instructions.
The absence of key titles like SNK vs. Capcom: Card Fighters 2 is a notable omission that detracts from the completeness of the collection.
Some games suffer from input lag and may feel dated or shallow compared to modern standards, impacting the overall enjoyment.
