Mini Mix includes the first rerelease of the NES version Strider since its original 1989 debut. The included version is a perfect emulation of the original game and presents no differences, which also means it retains all the same glitches, bugs and the broken English translation of the original intact.

The "Blue Dragon"/Menu music theme from Strider is used as the main theme in Mini Mix's Title and Select screens. The artwork in the logo used to represent the game in the Select screen, however, is actually the English flyer art from the Arcade game. This artwork depicts Hiryu facing Grandmaster Meio, a character who is not featured at all in the NES Strider.
