As a kid, I liked Dig Dug, as that was the only game at the local supermarket (Safeway, for those of you in the Western USA).
In my teens, I played World Heroes and Cabal at the local 7-11. Only got to stage 3 in Cabal eventually, I think I at least made it to the boss of World Heroes.
I also played TMNT like nearly everyone back then.
At the local pizzeria, I always played Art Of Fighting, X-Men, Bubble Bobble, Aero Fighters, Ninja Baseball Bat Man, and some others I can't remember.
At the small town arcade I played a lot of NARC during my early teens, as well as Tecmo Knight -- the goriest game at my arcade. lol
Oh and I loved King Of Monsters and Art Of Fighting. I didn't know who SNK was at the time, but I liked them.
And at the skating rink I'd play Rampage.
Post-arcade years using emulators, I extensively played King Of Fighter '98, The Last Blade 2, Samurai Showdown 3 and 4, Waku Waku 7, Metal Slug 1 and 2, both Capcom Dungeons & Dragons games, Strikers 194X, and Magical Drop 3.
The last time I went to an arcade, I dumped about $5 into The Simpsons.
Once or twice a year my fiance and I go down to Seattle or Tacoma to play pinball all day for $15-$35 (depending on the venue).
I used to have 3 pinball machines when I was a kid. My dad had a bunch of pinball tables after he got his own house. As well as Ms. Pac-Man (he still has it, I don't like it), Robotron (he doesn't have it anymore, but he and I loved that game), Bagman (I loved that game but never got past the first level, even on the Commodore64), and Commando (my stepbrother was good at that game, I'm better than my dad but that's not saying much).
One of the few NES games I owned was the adaptation of PinBot. I loved the crap out of that game, even though I could only get to stage 3. Consequently I get butterflies in my belly every time I see a real PinBot table.
I have Virtual On for the Saturn. I've beaten it on easy mode. Can't remember if I beat it on normal difficulty. I loved that game since the day I got it.
My dad also has a jukebox. I hope he leaves me the jukebox and a pinball table.
