Sega Smash Pack Volume 1 is a Sega Dreamcast compilation of twelve earlier Sega games. Ten of these games were originally released for the Sega Mega Drive. This compilation was initially only available to certain bundled Dreamcast systems, before getting released separately later[4].

This is the third compilation to be released that was titled Sega Smash Pack; the first two were released for PC. When released, the game was criticized for its poor emulation and the poorly reproduced music featured in the games. The game's disc (GD-ROM) contains a text document that elaborates on the emulator and includes text that alludes to Sega's dropping out of the console business.

Games included

  • Loading the disc inside of a PC CD-ROM drive will provide an installer for the PC version of Sega Swirl.
