I think it is worth it. But you should look into running the games with DAPHNE as I think it plays much better with Daphne then using your dvd player.
Daphne website...

P.S. I just sold a copy on ebay for about $30 with shipping, you could check on ebay but make sure you get the right version.

Yes, it is worth it if you like Dragon's Lair and Space Ace. However, try not to pay more than $35 (US). I bought mine through an eBay store for $32, I believe.
And I second the suggestion to set up Daphne. I played the games on my DVD player and it was barely adequate. Daphne plays the games perfectly.

I picked up my copy at half-price books for $20. I agree with the others that it isnt as good playing it on your dvd player. If you dont have the mpegs for Daphne there is a program that will rip them from the dvd. For me it was nice because there is an option to see a complete game played through and some history behind the games.

I guess a follow-up question is: Is it worth the 40-60 bucks for that one, or can I settle for the Deluxe CD or the xbox dvd which can be bought MUCH cheaper?
I have the Deluxe edition with DL, DL2 and Space Ace on it. Only DL works with Daphne, and I think you miss out on a few scenes (which may not have been available in the Arcade anyway? not sure...?) I used the DL2DAPH, and it works real well (these are avi's not the dvd format). Since I have not seen the Anniversary Ed. it looks Real good to me. Plus, my machine outputs through s-video to a TV, so I think that would degrade the DVD quality anyway...
Good thing about the DL, is it has DL2 and Space Ace you can play from the cd...bad thing is that Space Ace is missing something (which I can't figure out what it is?) which is needed for Daphne so it won't work in Daphne...and I think Daphne does not yet support DL2...
Not sure aobut the xbox or other cheaper dvd's...they are probably OK, but just missing those same new scenes? Someone else may know.
