Bejeweled? Mummy Maze? Astropop? Collapse? Bookworm? What's your favorite arcade game?

Tumblebugs is great, but I also like to play Diner Dash, Chuzzle, and Astropop, they're so cool!

double dragon.

Thats in the top 5 no doubt - the amount of 10ps I wasted just trying to get past the end of level baddies....then of course final fight rolled along on the same theme....sadly never reproduced correctly on any console....

Street Fighter 2 Hyper (m/c Bison/Vega if ur accross the pond).

Killer instinct I loved in the arcade, did not really like once it hit consoles.

Marvel versus capcom 2. I like to think im godly at this game, but there is so much talent (shoryuken SF BB). Cable/Sentinal/CC, various others as the third, but almost always cable and sent. My original killer team.

SF 3rd strike. Ken is my favorite char. Akuma second. Came out kind of late for me to get into it hardcore.

Mortal kombat 2.

time crisis!

And thats all i can remember right now for arcade games I poured quarters into.

YAY Snow Bros... that was a cool game ages ago.

I used to habngout at arcades way too much, I always preferred car games... Hard Driving 2 was a spinout.

The last games I really played a lot in arcade was Tekken: I was so blown out when I first played number 1, it really was something new in terms of control and essentially killed Virtua Fighter on graphics, moves and sound... the PS1 version was OK but too slow after the arcade.

Then I went back to play number 2 & 3 when they came out in arcade ... :)

Old faves:

Aliens (the Double Dragon style one)
Twin Cobra
E-SWAT
Daytona
Virtua Driving
Winning Run (Namco's first decent driving game and man was it purdy...)
1942, 43 and 45
Super Hang-on
Cabal
Chase HQ
Shinobi
Ninja Gaiden
Rolling Thunder (now that's going back)

Killer Instinct was just too old hat for me... if it'd come out 2 years earlier.

Arcades are dead aren't they... ;). Oh the memories and the habit that cost more than a nicotine addiction :(

Cool does not cover it - SF1 was naff although a good idea with the pressure senstive buttons..

But SF2 hyper fighting (with the PCB hack for 000's of fireballs etc) took more of my money than any other game....MK2 was close but those anaoying finishers started to put me off....

Ninja Gaiden was a good game as well played that enough times.
