Old Skool arcade games.
 

Hey peoples, list your all time favorite arcade and console games. I'm trying to compile a good list cause I can remember games but not the titles, I know their was some really addictive games we all grew up with.

My Friend has been collecting consoles from the 70's onwards and even has a couple of old arcade machines. We need the list to start searching eBay for some decent games.

The obvious ones for me are:

Load Runner
Boulder Dash
Dig Dug
Tekken
California Games
Wizard of Wor
Street Fighter
Mario Bros
Sonic the Hedgehog

What are your Fave's ??

Mortal Kombat
TMNT (Who can forget the epic showdown in the Technodrome?!)

I can visualize playing a ton of them at Milford Amusement as a kid, but I can't for the life of me think of the names.

Yes I remember playing tons too but the names have escaped me. Ive added yor 2 to the must get list.

Crystal Castles ; I have no idea why I liked this one so much. I guess I wasn't big into shooting and punching games.

These two are some of my faves. Also:

Marble Madness
Gauntlet
Galaga

Yes I remember this game what a classic, it was on a really early platform TR-80 i think and amstrad possibly !

Tempest, Scramble, and Battlezone

Duck Hunt
Marvel vs. Capcom
X-men
Bomberman
Commando
Frogger

kung fu

I had a notebook when I was a teen which I wrote down every title to an upright arcade game that I saw or played. I do wonder what became of that notebook...

my additions:
Legend of Ka-ge-ki
Ninja Gaiden
Operation: Wolf

The Legend of Zelda/The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past/The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time
Goldeneye for N64
NBA Jam (any game where you can play as Bill Clinton or Al Gore is a winner)

Many many others.

Yes yes yes its all coming back now...........keep em coming peoples !

How about the original Metroid. Fun as hell. (The Wii version is pretty awesome, too)

I actually have lists of most games since the 70's thanks to certain sites, I'ts great are just focusing on the fun ones though and dont want to waste money on bum old arcade m/b's of ebay, cause old arcade m/b's are so damn expensive !

And bubble Bobble, cheers what a classic I remember it was on tape on the old C64. That would be a great find in good condition.

Just some random info here,

The supposed very first interactive video game invented in 1958 !!!!

Zaxxon

Dragonslayer

Qix

Elevator Action

Pole Position

Super Sprint

My vices were:

Zaxxon
Tempest
Defender
Galaga

I lost many quarters in those games.

We recently got a Wii, and you can download some old games with Wii Points. I downloaded Galaga, and I swear I play that as much as the Wii games

Was LSL a console game?

And I can't believe I forgot Jumpman.

And the one I REALLY can't believe I forgot...

PITFALL

Xevious

Add another vote for these two.

Damn, Gauntlet! Elf needs Food, now!

PITFALL of course I couldn't remember for the life of me the name of this classic,
perfect !

Cheers Bear Cub.

There was only One Game, and that Game was Tempest.
