Both volumes contain an art gallery of pictures from their playable arcade games, Atari 2600 manuals from their playable arcade games and credits that say the people who helped make them. Both volumes contain 2 other extras. While Volume 1 has a trivia game that gives players 20 randomly selected questions about Atari and Army Battlezone, a version of Battlezone commissioned by the US Army for Atari to train the gunners of the Bradley Fighting Vehicle, Volume 2 has 8 interviews from Nolan Bushnell, including video and audio (although the interviews don't have similar buttons to many video hosters) & an Atari 400 Basic engine.
Volume 1
Writing for IGN, Craig Harris rated Atari Greatest Hits Volume 1 6 out of 10, and said that the 30 dollar price was too high: "At most, this game is a 20 dollar value." Harris noticed that the Nintendo DS's small screen can not properly display games with vector graphics: "the 256 by 192 pixel density just can't display the fine visual details of Gravitar, Lunar Lander, and Asteroids." However, he praised the title's "excellent multiplayer support" and "spot-on emulations". Alex Morgen at GamingBits.com gave it 3.5 of 5 stars in a generally positive review. Harris and Morgen both said that many of the included titles would not hold gamers' attention for very long. Nintendo Power rated it 5 out of 10, while Nintendo Gamer gave it 22 out of 100.
