Sometimes, games are meant to be funny, and punny, for the team at System 3 Software, they’re bringing together a collection of a gaming series that was always that, and more. James Pond Legacy: The Pond Is Not Enough is the definition of old-school retro gaming, and as such, many of you might not have heard about it. However, with this new collection, that won’t be an issue. You can check out the breakdown and gameplay trailer below:
“Bringing together 12 versions of four classic James Pond games, the collection spans the Amiga 500, Sega Mega Drive/Genesis, Super Nintendo Entertainment System, and Commodore 64. With a production run limited to no more than 6,000 physical copies, the collection gives longtime fans and newly recruited agents the opportunity to own a tangible piece of James Pond history.
James Pond Legacy: The Pond Is Not Enough features four beloved titles: James Pond: Underwater Agent, James Pond 2: RoboCod, James Pond 3: Operation Starfish, and The Aquatic Games Starring James Pond and the Aquabats.
Each title is enhanced with modern conveniences, including multiple save slots, controller rumble, adjustable scanline controls, in-game audio options, and custom bezels. Together with the all-new Pondverse, the collection offers a blend of retro authenticity, interactive history, and modern playability – and the definitive way to experience the legacy of gaming’s most charming secret-agent fish.”
