<b>Activision Classics:</b> A pile of Activision's Atari 2600 offerings (think Pitfall et al) for the PS1. This was generally held to be of inferior quality to their Action Pack counterparts on the PC. (There is a newer PS2 disc, called <b>Activision Anthology</b>, that's received better reviews and also includes some cheesy 80's soundtrack music.)

<b>Arcade Party Pak</b>: 720, Smash TV, Klax, Toobin', Super Sprint and Rampage. Smash TV was born for the Dual Shock controller, and some of the others aren't bad, either.

<b>Arcade's Greatest Hits: Atari Collection 1</b>: Tempest, Super Breakout, Centipede, Missile Command, Asteroids, Battlezone. Some control issues, but decent ports of the originals.

<b>Arcade's Greatest Hits: Atari Collection 2</b>: Paperboy, Gauntlet, RoadBlasters, Marble Madness, Millipede and Crystal Castles. Again, control issues hamper this one.

<b>Arcade's Greatest Hits: Midway Collection 2</b>: Blaster, Root Beer Tapper, Burgertime, Joust 2: Survival of the Fittest, Spy Hunter, Moon Patrol, and the rare Splat!. Recommended, even if Spy Hunter really needs a steering wheel.

<b>Arcade's Greatest Hits: Williams</b>: Described above.

<b>Atari Anniversary Edition</b>: Asteroids, Asteroids Deluxe, Battlezone, Black Widow, Centipede, Gravitar, Missile Command, Pong, Space Duel, Super Breakout, Tempest and Warlords. Probably a better buy than the above Atari Collection 1, if you can find it.

<b>Intellivision Classics</b>: Activision's other early-console offering. Lots of two-player-only games (particularly sports). Interesting if you liked the console, though there are control issues.

<b>Konami Arcade Classics</b>: Gyruss, Scramble, Super Cobra, Pooyan, Roc'n'Rope, Kicker (Shaolin's Road), Yie-Ar Kung Fu, Circus Charlie, Time Pilot and Road Fighter. Nice variety here, with some classics that've stood the test of time.

<b>NAMCO Museum Vol. 1 through 5</b> In order:
Volume 1: Pac-Man, Galaga, Pole Position, Rally-X/New Rally-X, Bosconian, Toy Pop
Volume 2: Mappy, Xevious, Super Pac-Man, Gaplus (Galaga 3), Grobda, Dragon Buster
Volume 3: Dig Dug, Ms. Pac-Man, Galaxian, Tower of Druaga, Phozon, Pole Position II
Volume 4: Assault (which does NOT work as you'd expect with a standard Dual Shock pad, sadly), Ordyne, Pac-Land, Return of Ishtar, Genji & Heike Clans
Volume 5: Dragon Spirit, Pac-Mania, Metro-Cross, Legend of Valkyrie, Baraduke

Volume 2 is the best of the five, IMHO, but I'm a Mappy junkie.

That's about all that made it to the States. Other solid collections (Capcom Generations Vol. 1-5, Parodius Deluxe Pack, Twinbee Deluxe Pack, Namco Encore, Namco Anthology, Nichibutsu Arcade Classics, Irem Arcade Classics) exist if you have a modded console and don't mind a little Japanese in your menu screens.
