Classic Arcade Games

[Start Dreaming]Defender[/end dreaming]

My best game was over a million, but I had to go, only had about an hour to play and time ran out before the game did. I'm pretty sure that the machine was turned down to the lowest level. On normal settings a good game for me was in the 400-500k range.

I was actually looking at how much it would be to buy one on Ebay last X-mas....but $1000 for something that was 20-25 years old....NOT.

Still waiting for my buddy to finish his arcade cabinet so I can copy his and just set up a comp with roms.

Good controls were key.

Nice

Zoid - that's why you need a joystick.

Thanks, UR. More pics are coming And I probably need a joystick, but I´ll try a few more times before I spend another $20.

I remember when I used to sneak out my grandmothers house and go to the nearby bowling alley. Lots of pinball machines and arcade games. Space Invaders, Asteroids, Pac-Man and Donkey Kong. It was there I laid the foundation for a serious gaming addiction in the mid-80´s. I spent so much money and time at the Arcade hall that my mother even called the owner and tried to get me banned.

I found the cheat option. But it seems to have unexpected side-effects...

I wonder if I can break the game if it reaches 999 999 points?

Ah, the true classics. Do you remember Crazy Climber, Dig Dug, Tempest, Missile Command, Battlezone, and 1943?

[Zoid]

I totally sucked at Missile Command, and I ruled at 1943! The others I only know by name.
