The second installment of the PlayStation series features:

  • Xevious (1982)
  • Gaplus (1984) - the Galaga sequel
  • Grobda (1984) - a Xevious "spinoff"
  • Dragon Buster (1984)
  • Super Pac-Man (1982) - only in the western version
  • Bomb Bee (1979) - a hidden game; only in the Japanese version
  • Cutie Q (1979) - although only playable in the Japanese version, its code can be found on the American release.

It enjoyed similar success to the original, and contained a similar "museum" mode. There is a glitch in this volume where in Dragon Buster the high score is not saved properly. It is shown in the record book, but does not appear in-game. The default hi-score is 10,000.

Famous quotes containing the words museum and/or volume:

    When I go into a museum and see the mummies wrapped in their linen bandages, I see that the lives of men began to need reform as long ago as when they walked the earth. I come out into the streets, and meet men who declare that the time is near at hand for the redemption of the race. But as men lived in Thebes, so do they live in Dunstable today.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    The other 1000 are principally the ‘old Yankee stock,’ who have lost the town, politically, to the Portuguese; who deplore the influx of the ‘off-Cape furriners’; and to whom a volume of genealogy is a piece of escape literature.
    —For the State of Massachusetts, U.S. public relief program (1935-1943)
