ok, time to show my age here....lol...
I remember going to the Pizza places, and they would have the old tabletop games like pac-man and this one spaceship scroller whole name escapes me. There is a place out here in AZ called "Castles N' Coasters"....its supposed to be an amusement roller coaster park. ANYWAY, they have this huge 3 story "castle" filled with video games...top floor is all the oldies (pac man, donkey kong, TRON, the original Star wars, etc) main floor has all the "hot games", and the bottom floor is ahuge circle filled with the REAL "video games"...PINBALL.
As for the games, I almost grew up at the 7-11 by my parents houre, back when 7-11 had like 2 video games in it. Double Dragon ruled!! Then street fighter/mortal kombat came along...
Golden Ax was a SWEET game...spent many a roll of quarters on that one.
Speaking of 4 player action, Guantlet has got to tbe the pioneer in that field....WIZARD...IS ABOUT TO DIE...lol
Today, I like to head to the "gaming bars" like Jillians/Dave&Busters/GameWorks where they have a TON of games, and full service bars running up the midway....BEER and video games...awww yeah...
Hydro Thunder is the best racing game.....and for fighting games, have to go with Soul Calibur or any of the Camcom clones..
ok...that's enough...heh..
