Favorite Classic Arcade Game

Pretty much all arcade games are classics if you live in the states.

I mean, going by the kind of games he mentioned, I think he means the really old ones.

Classic doesn't have to refer to really old games besides most of the games listed by people are over 10+ years.

Dragon Ball Z 2: Super Battle was great too. I wish we got another DBZ game like this since Super DBZ was the cloest thing we got, and sold poorly.

I always love playing Pacman and Space invaders.

I used to have a dentist that had Street fighter 2 you could play while waiting for your check up, and before you entered the room of awesome you can play Popeye the arcade game.

And the best part is you could watch tv while on the chair getting your check up.

That place was great.

I forgot to mention Rampage. The Rampage series from 98-2000 was awesome, and too bad the newer game did not sell very well. Since I love Rampage, and I waited years for a new game.

Streets of Rage and House of the Dead II. The only two Arcade games that keep me coming back for more.

The thing is I can never find Streets of Rage in any arcade anymore...quite sad really.

While I love Mario Bros., I'm particularly fond of the 1983 Star Wars arcade game.
I think it's Alec Guinness' distorted, digitized voice that gets me. "Uuse-thee-fo-rce-Luueke!"
