I remember the arcade days and I'm glad there's Arcade 1up to try and bring some of it back, even though its still not quite the same. But here are a list of some of my favorite arcade games that I loved playing:
- TMNT2 Arcade - TMNT Turtles in Time - X-men - The Simpsons - Aliens vs Predator (Capcom) - Time Crisis 2 - Terminator 2 - Street Fighter 2 - X-men vs Street Fighter - Marvel vs Capcom 1 & 2
As much as I loved the arcade and great socializing experience, but it was also a spot were numerous delinquents hung around and didn't always provide a safe haven. I saw numerous fights break out, vandalism towards the machines, I remember when I was a small kid I was shoved to the ground hard by some older teenager because I beat him in SF2. |
That sucks, our arcade was pretty chill. Worst you would get is a dirty look and maybe a cuss word when you beat on older kid. Normally they'd just keep feeding the machine until they beat you (assuming no line). No fights or vandalism that I can remember in our arcade. Edit- also X-men is another good call ... 4 player cabinet if I remember correctly. right? |
I'm glad you had a better experience. These days the 'arcade' scene is more family-oriented so I would think the environment would be more safe and chill if more would pop up again.
X-men was surprisingly a 6 player cabinet. It was insane, still to this day where have you heard of a 6 player local coop game? Great game!
