hulkamania85 9 years 1 month ago Posts: 220	I remember an arcade used to be in a shopping area not too far from home. A card/comic/sports memorabilia shop used to be walking distance from my house. Comics used to be available in 7-Eleven and Target. Now all these cool things are only available at specialty places, which is good for comic shops I guess.

senseimike 9 years 1 month ago Posts: 185	been playing video games for 25 years... have quite a few faves. Paperboy Donkey Kong Donkey Kong Jr Q*Bert Gauntlet(the original) Popeye Mario Bros. Skate or Die Joust Dragon's Lair (although I sucked at it) Altered Beast Elevator Action the Star Wars sitdown cockpit game.... I just liked the way Obi Wan would say "Use the force Luke" Ms. Pac Man and for some strange reason... I really liked Pac Man Jr. (half video game, half pinball)

skywalkersghost 9 years 1 month ago Posts: 378	I think the one I played alot was called Afterburner. It was a flying game and the machine moved whichever direction you moved the joystick.

System 9 years 1 month ago Posts: 74809	I'm just curious...What is the name of the arcade you would frequent? Mine was called Time-Out. There was also a much smaller one at the bowling alley which didn't have a name. Years after I stopped going to them, a bunch of new ones sprung up called Stop 'N Play.

Tetragrammaton 9 years 1 month ago Posts: 295	I only ever saw the actual console for TMNT once, it was in some small middle-of-nowhere town whose name I can't remember. So my friends and I only ever got to play it two-player together (we could only be Leonardo or Michaelangelo), but it was cool because it was only 20c for two credits.

hulkamania85 9 years 28 days ago Posts: 220	The Punisher is one of my favorites. It was pretty damn violent. You could steal people's knives and slash them. You could blow up cars, leaving a charred body. You could steal a blowtorch. Kingpin is one of the toughest bosses I ever fought in an arcade game.

System 9 years 27 days ago Posts: 74809	I remember playing Knights of the Round, while we were on a family vacation in Florida... At some pizza parlour. I spent at least 6 or 7 dollars of quarters on it at one sitting... The game was SOOOO much fun.. Probably because i was only about 11 or 12 at the time and heavy into medieval history. Knights of the Round = GOOD Game, Great Memory

evil-monkey 9 years 14 days ago Posts: 210	I don't remember my first arcade experience but I can tell you that I'm sure I've sent most of the staff's kids, at Midway, to college from all the money I spend on Mortal Kombat II. Looking back I could have bought my own personal machine had I saved those quarters instead of pumping them into money hungry beast. Kintaro, you bastard!!! Sorry, flashback moment.
