Does anyone remember the name of an arcade machine game that had bad guys with cloaks and hoods on, kind of kkk like but maybe purple and you would jump up and down levels?
Great list, but….
How did Off Road not make the cut!?
Used to love paperboy and double dragon
What!?No tempest or Star Wars?
This was only on the red and black Sega Console right?
I like this list because it is subjective. Awful cool how the ones on this list are depicted in Arcade form. This list could be 50, or 100. If it were 100, would the author add sports games?
Thank you. Was Kid Icarus ever in an arcade?
Karate Champ, Robotron, Centipede, Tempest, Joust, Qbert, Tron, Gauntelt, Contra were some of my go to’s not on the list. Kids miss out on those days we would ride our bikes to the arcade or pool.
