I'd just like to say that thanks to compilation games like the Sega Genesis Collection and Atari Collections for PS2, you can virtually play any arcade game you want.
Case in point, I just played Pac-Man not too long ago! |
I just found Mr. Robot and his Robot Factory online!

I remember sitting in my room playing nintendo for hours.. I used to get lost in Legend of Zelda and Super Mario Brothers.. ( I remember finding the secret worlds in SMB's) that was the deal...
But I remember this pinball game that was at my local bowling alley all the kids used to play it, there were so many kids waiting to play it.. It was called "Earthshaker" it was an earthquake game, and if your ball went into the fault line, the whole game shook. It was so cool.. I remember how devestated we were when they pulled it out and put some dumb pinball game... |

PS2 has a Midway compilation of Paperboy, Gauntlet, Spy Hunter, Toobin' Defender 1 and 2 and Joust. Classic gaming at it's best. Quote:
Space Ace and Dragon's Lair. I have them both on separate CD-Rom Don Bluth is one of my favorite animators. I still want the Tron Deadly Discs game where you stand inside it. |
I can't quote enough of you! :snap:
~My Arcade favorites~ *Joust *Ms. Pac-Man & Pac-Man *Donkey Kong & Donkey Kong, Jr. *Frogger *Centipede (did anybody suffer hand agony like I did by getting their palm repeatedly caught between the roller ball?) *Asteroids *Space Invaders *Burger Time *Dig-Dug *Q-Bert I liked cute games. :) Dragon's Lair scared the daylights out of me. Dirk the Daring, we'll always creepily remember thee. I still love skee-ball, airhockey & pinball. The last pinball machine that I played was while shopping at the Sharper Image. It was The Sopranos pinball and it was just killer! There was a little Bada-Bing stripper who twirled around the pole when you hit it just right. I'll also never forget Gilligan's Island pinball, too, which had Gilligan saying "nice coconuts". Thank you, Gilligan. Tragic Ally Flaw: I'm way competitive. Many a times I've sent an angry puck flying off the air hockey table if I feel threatened. :( |
I always liked Kangaroo.

Ms. Pac Man. My uncle was big into video games in the 80s (having designed and programmed Kaboom! for the Atari 2600) and he had a bunch of arcade cabinets in his garage. One of which was Ms. Pacman, which I still love.
I played the crap out of that game whenever I visited, and I got really good at the arcade version. So much so that nobody wants to play with me since I'll be there for 10 minutes or more on my first life. Once I was playing in Vegas and had a crowd watching me, it was really funny. Nowadays, I will play it at the car wash near my house, and by the time all my lives are up, my car has been washed :) The other game though that I loved in the arcade was the original Star Wars game. You know, where it was all monochrome graphics and stick figures. That's still one of my faves... it used to be in the arcade at Disneyland, but now I think it may be in Whitewater Snacks in the Grand Cal. |
I always enjoyed the arcade sequels like, Ms. Pac-Man, Ms. Tron, & Ms. Galaga.

The Simpsons Arcade Game (1991). Boy, they wikipedia everything!
