Donkey Kong.

I was a bit of a wizard.....Meteor, 8 Ball, Harlem Globetrotters, Playboy, Superman.....I used to go to the arcade with 4 quarters and leave with $5 or $6.....not bad for a 12 year old.

centipede
galaga
pacman
phoenix
pinball
millipede

I don't remember the names of any of them, there were so many different games.

Swim

Because the princess was hot - or to 1983 me, she was hot. I don't want to know how much money I wasted on that game.  

Another game I dumped money into? The Olympic game. Many hours down at the university arcade playing that....at least with that one I got past level 2.

The precursor to all pinball games.

Bottle Cap's
Mine was Chinese Jacks & Jacks

The Pinball Hall of Fame in Las Vegas has wide variety of old Pinball machines. A great place to spend some time playing & searching for you old favorite machines.

Made a ton of short-term friends at Round Table Pizza over that game.

Stupid dog always laughing!

In the arcade scene? Where Ed Rooney thinks he's finally caught Ferris in flagrante delicto?

"Les jeux sont faits. Translation: the game is up. Your ass is mine.

I had a friend who worked at a company that made pinball machines and he had a bunch in his garage. We could play for free for hours -- Captain Fantastic, Playboy, etc. -- loves 'em all.

That damn Black Knight and Fireball ate so many of the quarters that were supposed to go to the laundry....

Come to think of it, it was the only foursome I've had...and it was with a bunch of guys!  Ok I need a date with 3 girls...

None other than the legendary "FROGGER." (Damn--the number of quarters I pumped into that game back in the day---probably the equivalent of Denmark's GNP!!)

 "Ms Pac-Man" would be a close second followed by "Millepede"---(really loved those DDT bombs!!)
