Critic Reviews for Disney/Pixar Toy Story: Retro Roundup!
Toy Story: Retro Roundup is filled with tons of great modern-day features and extras that make it a great choice for anyone who played these games in the past and wants a burst of nostalgia.
While there are some games in the pack that don't have much to offer, the good stuff is really good. A must-own for any fans of Disney-Pixar 3D platformers.
Toy Story: Retro Roundup! offers a decent selection of classic Toy Story games across multiple platforms, enhanced with useful modern features and interesting documentary content. However, the incomplete lineup, limited archival material and awkward menu structure are disappointing for a collection from Digital Eclipse, especially given the studio's previous standards.

In its careful historical preservation and attention to detail, Toy Story: Retro Roundup! is flawless. However, this unwavering fidelity to the past carries the weight of decades: without adjustments to soften the impact of the years and relying only on a few external tricks to overcome its limitations, both outdated mechanics and visuals may frustrate those seeking even a minimal contemporary experience. This will certainly test the player's patience.

Revisiting these childhood adventures was a wonderful experience, and it highlights how great movie tie-in games can be enjoyable experiences. While retro collections of iconic franchises are always welcome, the movie game tie-in games should be preserved too. With its wealth of quality fun for the whole family across a wide range of game genres, deep quality-of-life features to make each game an inviting experience, and a history section filled with amazing game development insight for those wanting to learn more about each title, Toy Story Retro Roundup is easily one of Digital Eclipse's best retro collections on the market.
Toy Story: Retro RoundUp! is no longer for me; I’m okay with that. But these games — with their clunky platforming and vintage graphics — are also no longer for the children growing up on Toy Story today, with Mario Kart World and LEGO Star Wars a button press away. Retro children’s games are difficult for me to judge, as they were meant to be colorful and simple years ago, but as a result, they don’t feel fun for me and likely not for my nephews who are used to glossier graphics and more interesting gameplay. Having multiple versions of the same game included in the collection is nice for record-keeping, but not a very fun experience as a player.
If you have a soft spot for 90s licensed games or want an easy trip down memory lane, Toy Story Retro Roundup is a fantastic retro package that is well worth picking up.
It is precisely this feeling of nostalgia, coupled with the possibility of discovering or rediscovering these experiences, that makes the collection worthwhile. Not all the games have aged well, it's true, but that doesn't diminish their importance to the franchise's history and to the memories of so many fans.
