Ok all, i want to get the Arcades and Pinball pages back up in the systems tab.. so i thought how should i go about this and i thought about asking you all to have your say at which Arcades make the page..
So please post here your choices for each page..
The 20 most popular choices from both will hit the pages so come on what you waiting for?
How many choices are we posting?
Why not have 70's arcades, 80's, 90s and 2000s?
Yeah let's spans the choices through the decades.
Yes I'm all for this officiously :)
Quote from: "zapiy"Yeah let's spans the choices through the decades.
So what shall we do? Pick 10 from each decade?
Yeah up to that amount.
Quote from: "zapiy"Yeah up to that amount.
Ok then, will put my thinking cap on.

Right I have finally got round to doing this! For other people who want to contribute I suggest using the Arcade Museum (//http) website. You can set the search feature to only show games from certain years, which is very useful indeed!

I grew up in arcades, but I'm embarrassed a little to ask exactly what you are requesting here? I'm confused.

It's simple, we want you to pick your favourite 10 arcade games from each decade to be included in a new arcade section here.
I feel the 1970's games were the weakest point in arcade game history as it was it evolution and you guys have already called the shot on most of them, so I won't need to repeat them here..
But.
1980's
Commando (capcom)
Paperboy (Atari games)
Choplifter (sega)
Chase h.q.(Taito)
Rolling Thunder (Namco/Atari games)
Ghouls'n'Ghosts (Capcom)
After Burner (Sega)
Shadow warriors (Ninja Gaiden) Technos
R-type 2(Irem)
1990's
The Simpsons (Konami)
Smash TV (Williams)
Mystical Warriors (Konami)
Battle Circuit
Undercover Cops (Irem)
In The Hunt (Irem)
Armoured Warriors (Capcom)
Guardians (Banpresto)
Ok, only just seen this thread despite it being bumped twice. I have a very limited experience of arcades and retro gaming as a whole but, I have sampled several games and systems. For this reason, I will list those I can remember (your lists are helping me) and enjoyed the most:
1970's
Space Invaders
1980's
Crystal Castles (absolute favourite)
Gauntlet
Moonwalker
Mr Do!
R-Type
Spy Hunter
S.T.U.N. Runner (Spread Tunnel Underground Network Runner)
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles
1990's
Time Crisis
SoulCalibur
Thanks for including Mr. Do! and Crystal Castles, Cryptic. Both obvious choices for me but I left them out! LOL

You're welcome, they did stand out for me but as my experiences are limited it was easier to make a list I guess. CC is a must for me as I got to the final level (10) a few times, even if I didn't beat it

It also seems most of my gaming was in the 80's lol
