Classic Arcade Games of the 70's and 80's

 

I have a fondness for what I consider to be the golden age of arcade gaming. Nearly two decades of entertainment, enjoyed one quarter at a time.

I encourage everyone to rate the games I've listed, and of course add your favorite if I missed it. Include the year, if possible. Wikipedia hasn't let me down yet, ROM sites for MAME will also have that informations.

About Wildcard6

I live in Renton, WA with my wife Jennifer and my son Alexander. I'm a game-nerd made good. Right now, I find myself doing exactly what I want to be doing for my new employer, Hidden City Games. We're making games that push the boundry of what 'games' can be.  Clout and Bella Sara are our current products, and I'm quite proud of both of them.
