Tuesday Favorites....Arcade Games

[CDGator]

Picture yourself at Chuck E. Cheese's or the mall arcade. What are your go-to games that you must play before you spend all your tokens?

There are too many, but Bosconian and Wizard of War will always be up there... there was an obscure helicopter game (not Choplifter!) that I really liked too. And if we go REALLY old school stand up arcade, I'd go with Gun Fight.

Wife's favorite to this day is "Pooyan" where the mama pig shoots down the balloon toting killer wolves with a bow and arrow to protect her piglets.

I wasn’t real big on the arcade games, but there was a Pizza Place a bunch of us would go that had some games and I like Missile Command. Also @Back Alley Gator ’s Space Invaders.

Hey, read my disclaimer Besides, I was usually drinking beer. I guess it was Galaga now that I think about it. Oops.

Lot's of good arcade games from back in the day, but my favorite was a somewhat obscure game called BurgerTIme. It's the only game that I can play now and beat my 12 year old son.

Pong. Haven't played since they went away.

Yep. @Back Alley Gator wins this thread with Joust.

I had an arcade Frogger in our game room as a kid, so that’s always been a favorite as well. But Joust is next level. I can almost hear that pterodactyl as we speak. That thing can get bent.

I remember that one. I played it on my Intellivision.

Yes! I had an Intellivision, too. In addition to BurgerTime, I remember playing a lot of Lock & Chase (their version of Pac Man), all the sports games (boxing and skiing were particularly fun), and they even had some card/casino games that I liked to play.

Galaga at Pizza Hut. At the mall Ninja Turtles, Street Fighter and a WWF game got lost my money.

We have a few in town and my 10 year old spends his time on Turtles or Simpsons.

And then there were:
Gauntlet
Yie Ar Kung Fu
Golden Axe

I never could play Defender worth a damn.
