Included Games and Versions

The bundle focuses on the 1990s and early 2000s era primarily developed by Traveller's Tales (TT Games), spanning 11 total versions across home consoles and portable systems:

• Toy Story (1995): Includes the Sega Genesis, Super Nintendo Entertainment System (SNES), and Game Boy editions.
• Toy Story 2: Buzz Lightyear to the Rescue! (1999): Featured using the original PlayStation release, alongside the handheld Game Boy Color edition.
• Buzz Lightyear of Star Command (2000): Covers both the PlayStation home console edition and the Game Boy Color handheld version.
• Toy Story Racer (2001): Includes the PlayStation release and the handheld Game Boy version.
• A Bug's Life (1998): Included as a bonus release from the same TT Games development lineage, featuring its PlayStation edition.

The compilation incorporates multiplayer support for appropriate games like Toy Story Racer, utilizing Steam's Shared/Split Screen and Remote Play Together tools for local and virtual couch play.

Visual Enhancements, Controls, and Quality-of-Life Features

Digital Eclipse built several mechanical and display tools into the collection interface:

• Display Modes and Filters: Players can display games in their original 4:3 aspect ratio with authentic square pixels and themed decorative borders, or toggle full-screen and widescreen options. CRT curved filters or clean unfiltered presentation can be toggled on demand.
• PlayStation Render Scaling: For 3D PlayStation titles like Toy Story 2 and A Bug's Life, a render scale setting allows players to keep the original 1x native resolution with jagged polygons or upscale the output up to 4x for cleaner edge smoothing.
• Rewind Feature: Holding a designated button scrubs backwards through gameplay, allowing players to undo missed platforming jumps or enemy hits without restarting stages.
• Save States: Multiple save slots permit players to save and reload progress at any point.
• Rex's Cheat Codes: In-game toggle switches enable classic cheats—such as level skips, invincibility, and unlimited lives—without manual button-sequence inputs.
• Practice Mode and Interactive Longplays: Built-in video replays allow players to watch complete playthroughs of tricky sections. At any point during a playback video, players can press a button to take over control from that exact frame.
• Interactive Manuals: High-definition scans of original retail instruction booklets are viewable with zoom tools, alongside newly localized, simplified "How to Play" screen guides.
• Input Customization: Full controller binding adjustments are supported directly in the game settings.

Toy History Museum and Archival Extras

Beyond the games, the Retro Roundup package serves as an interactive documentary archive:

• Video Featurettes and Interviews: Contains six documentary videos totaling over an hour of interview footage. Interviewees include Jim Hanks (longtime voice of Woody across video games and merchandise), Jason Katz (Head of Story at Pixar), Jon Burton (founder of TT Games), and Luigi Priore (VP and GM at Disney & Pixar Games), alongside Digital Eclipse's Mike Mika.
• Archival Design Documents: A virtual 3D gallery featuring original storyboard drawings, design sheets, marketing materials like Toy Story Fun House advertisements, and 3D rotatable classic retail boxes.
• Music Player: Includes full chiptune and CD-audio music tracks ripped from every included console and handheld version, complete with custom playlist creation tools.
