How the hell is Kung Fu not part of this list, yet?!?

Hey guys, if anyone needs help with this cabinet business, I built them for a few rich game nerds (like me, but Im not rich) in college, so I know em inside and out... plus, why not just put like 10,000 games in it, and I'll show you how to put only the ones you love on a favorites list, that way if you ever get sick of em, check out the other ones.

I didnt read every post, but if Metal Slug isnt on there, I might have to pwn some noobs.

A valid point. SFII was a winner, but I always get a sense of pride whenever I see the X-Men cabinet knowing thatmy cousin and I dropped a shitload into the machine just so we could claim we beat it.

The question is, who is the best character is this game? I say Nightcrawler, and it's not even close. His jump+kick was the best and his mutant power is unmatched since it covers most of the screen.

This is turning out to be a bit of a "what era were you playing a lot of arcade games in" question rather than an objective best arcade games question.

Since I'm old(er), I'd have to say Defender, Stargate, Robotron, Joust and Sinstar (Williams really knew how to make the good games). Pac-man and Donkey Kong were pretty damn good as well.

Later on Gauntlet and Street Fighter (2 turbo was my flavour of choice).

I just got a mobile phone with a totally perfect version of Gauntlet on it and have been enjoying it immensly. I'm hoping to talk a friend or two into getting the same phone since it allows up to four players wirelessly. It's the Sony-Ericsson W550i for those who will buy a phone just for the Gauntlet held within [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]
