Games you grew up with.

But, make sure you can get parts inexpensively. Contacts on buttons and joysticks were always high maintenance items. Having an arcade game that always breaks down is no fun.

That...or playing a game made by EA

JAYSUSS Twinkey..I havn't thought about those games in years. I also had an Apple II e played those same games....Hell I had an intellevision also. Video games were verbotten in my house growing up. See my dad is an old school programer "Computers are not for games". Anways my brother and I borrowed an intellevision off of a friend and would secretly play it in our room on a tiny BW 8 inch TV. Many an intense battle was had with Naval Battles in two player mode......Just brought back a flood of memories..

Thanks man.

Zaxxon, operation wolf, zenophobe, defender, tron, mortal kombat 1-3, streetfighter 2, rise of the triad, doom 1&2, virtua cop, golden axe, king of fighters, duke nukem, 720, skate or die, virtua fighter, asteriods, galaga, centipede, star wars, and of course who could forget that 3-d arcade game battlezone!!

I FEEL ASLEEP!!
I hope atleast one person knows what that is from. Not my first, but one of my favorites. Sonic, Super Mario Bros, Supermario world, MK1, Samurai Showdown, Duck Hunt, Contra, StreetFighter2 THE WORLD WARRIOR(this was the best version IMO). I didnt have a comp when I was young, consoles only. Space invaders, defender, Joust and some others I cant remember for that old atari I had. I play alot more oldschool games now than I did then, Gotta love the Xbox.

Up,up,down,down,b,a,select,start. Nuff said.

Nearest arcade was at the Maine Mall 40 minutes away, so I didn't go there often. Of course I played the classics, but didn't spend a lot of time on it.

When I was quite young I used to entertain myself for hours though on our old C64 by drawing stuff in the text editor...

Only console I ever owned as the NES. I played contra, skate or die, super mario bros, excite bike, duck hunt... others prolly I can't remember.

As far as early PC games: nibbles and gorillas, sim city, commander keen, kings quests.

Re: Games you grew up with.

I've just been thinking about what games i used to play 10-15 years ago and one suddenly hit me that i hadn't thought about since probably the last time i played it (when i sold my SNES..... so long ago )

Killer Instinct! Did anybody play this? Took forever to master that 48 hit combo. For those who don't know of this game.
