What Were Your Favorite Arcade Coin Op Games Growing Up? - GoFuckYourself.com

GTS Mark · 06-03-2007, 10:20 PM

I was watching a show tonite and they were showing some classic old coin op games I loved to play in the arcades when I was a kid.

My favorites of all time have to be

Paperboy
Spyhunter
Tapper
Operation Wolf
NARC
and probably Russian Attack

How about you guys, anybody old enough here to remember those classics? Hahahaa! And NO I am not talking about Xbox games, the old school stand up games

Wonderboy in Monsterland is my all time favorite. I still play it in MAME every once in a while. Super Dodgeball and Karate Champ would be 2nd and 3rd. However I played pretty much every game listed on my Commodore 64 before any arcade action took place.

WetNLive · 06-04-2007, 02:55 AM

Tempest was it for me. Spent tons of money on that game.

And I'm still a sucker for pinball machines

Spy hunter

yys · 06-04-2007, 06:01 AM

Man, no one mentioned the best racing game of all time.
Super Sprint

Lee · 06-04-2007, 06:08 AM

To me the ultimate coin-op game was Donkey Kong. I also loved Galaxians which was better than Space Invaders. The there was Gorf and Pole Position. There was also another game which involved driving with a black background and the track was just vertical lines which were like small posts, may have been called Night Driver or something similar, now that was old school.

The Spyhunters, Paperboys and the like were newer and by then I was more into my Commodore 64.
