The Xbox Spy Hunter had the original Spy Hunter as a hidden extra in it.

I know a few more, give me a little while to sift through some games to see what else comes to mind.

Pac-Man 2: The New Adventures for SNES has the original Pac-Man and Ms. Pac-Man included.

Donkey Kong 64 for N64 has the original NES Donkey Kong.

I know they don't really qualify for "offical" status, but I really liked the Asteroids and Breakout games in Electrocop on the Lynx. The winning message was priceless:

"You win, big deal."

I beleive that panzer dragoon orta has panzer dragoon 1 & 2 on it. All you have to do is beat the game and get a perfect score or something like that....

I know that the Rogue Squadron 3 demo disc had the original Star Wars arcade game, but I thought I read that the full game had 3 (?) Star Wars arcade games.

Metroid: Zero Mission has Metroid (NES) hidden in it.

Waittaminute! Did you say that Animal Crossing had both SMB and Zelda as hidden games? I thought that this was just a rumour?

Nope, they're in there all right. I've had them since early February of 2003, no joke. I got them before the Action Replay was availible. Wanna know how? Some guy in Columbus, Ohio (~1.5 hours away) firgured out how to make a Japanese AC save compatible with US AC by using a memory card that is compatible with a PC. He just had to edit some header information. He was able to transfer the games from JP to US. And so I was one of the first people to send him money for a memory card with a character having the following NES games:
Punchout!!
SMB
The Legend of Zelda
Ice Climber
Mario Bros.
And that was how I got those NES games months before most others could :)

Arnold Palmer's Tournament Golf for Genesis/Megadrive has a hidden Fantasy Zone minigame.
While searching for more info, I ran across this old thread that covers the same ground:

What I don't understand is why the hell Nintendo is not releasing the access code to these games. AC has been out for a long time already, so what the heck is Nintendo waiting for?

Sorry to squash this topic but the same discussion is already in progress at our Classic Discussions forum:

Please add the new stuff there! I don't think Prince of Persia or Ninja Gaiden are mentioned.
