That much Arcade Game history shouldn't be on the same list. Comparing Arcade version 1 of Space Invaders against Super Mario Bros is like comparing eating a just picked orange and watching ducks on a pond while standing by yourself VS eating Duck a'lorange in Paris France sitting down at a cafe with the person you just eloped with. Pong - 1981, 1982 - 1985, 1986 - 1989, The 90s didn't have as much rapid change in hardware tech, for one example though: Virtua Fighter 1 shouldn't have to compete with the final stable patch edition of Gauntlet: Dark Legacy, both are on different hardware platforms that give a completely different gaming experience.

@manoo2056 2 года назад

Thanks a lot for this Kim! I was addicted back them in Spain, there were a lot of them even in my neighborhood. We had them in "bars" (they are like Spanish version of pubs). It was so shitty to play when everyone was smoking but it was such an excitement when I could discover a hidden treasure. I remember escaping my parents so many times to check the arcade machines of every pub, every city we visited. Cannot wait to see your take on this. Best documentaries of videogames. Thanks!!!

@ShinSouther 2 года назад

25-30 years ago I used to visit my grandfathers in Spain for the summer in Cambrils (I live in France) and it was heaven for me; 3 arcades around me, arcade cabinets in almost every bar. I have great memories of a bartender playing the first ASO, it was a pleasure to watch him play, made me fall in love with shmups.

What a thoroughly enjoyable journey through your favourite arcade games. I can’t argue with any of your choices as this is such a personal list. My age and nostalgia for certain titles might produce a slightly different list / order but wouldn’t be essentially much different. Thanks for taking the time to make this one. So nice to sit through and let the memories flood back.

@montypeno1495 2 года назад

Making a list like this really does come down to your memories of playing these games growing up. In the last year I was able to get a home system with many of these games loaded on to it and it has been a lot of fun rediscovering them or playing them for the first time. My personal favorites would be Galaga, Street Fighter 2-Champions Edition, and Konami's X-Men 6 player, but again when it comes to favorites it's all about those great memories at your local arcade. Now I'm going to try a few of them from your list that I didn't see as much growing up.

@voltron983 2 года назад

Funnily enough the first time I played Virtua Fighter was also at Gatwick airport when I was going on holiday with my best friend and her family when we were about 12. We were so intrigued by it we couldn't stop playing, so much so that we almost missed our flight, fun memories. Always enjoy these countdown videos Kim, hope to see more in the future.

@paulhagger5261 День назад

Thank you for taking the time to put this video together, really enjoyed it. Spotted loads of my old favourites (Bad Dudes, Robocop, Double Dragon, Turtles etc) I do also have a soft spot for Pit Fighter (seriously!) Couldnt agree more on your choice of no 1- loved Wrestlefest as I was a massive WWF fan in late 80's / early 90's :)

Wow I did not expect that so many of my quirky top 10 picks ended up in your top 10 as well…number 9, 6 and 5! Huge favourites here. Great video overall. Only games I would have loved to see there would be some Psikyo games: Strikers 1945 and Gunbird series are amazing. Of the golden age games I also love Centipede and Dig Dug, but I loved all your shoutouts to that era. One gaming company I used to work for had a Robotron machine and man if I had one machine from that era at home that would be an easy pick.

@ninjapirate47 7 месяцев назад

At number 2, I literally said out loud "so what's your 1st? Wrestlefest?" In a joking manner as I always played it as a kid. I burst out laughing when I was right. It wasn't the best, it was kinda clunky and an absolute coin devourer. But there's no denying the effect it had when we were young. I loved it too. The chunky characters, the voices... it was great. Mame..... oh maaaaaame! Love it! Great list, Kim! Incredibly entertaining watch.

@psilatron 2 года назад

Thanks Kim, really enjoyed this video! If I had to choose only one arcade cabinet it would be Point Blank, had some crazy times with friends playing that game. If I could take two, the second would be Daytona. I remember at our local arcade some ruffian who was a regular would manage to peel back the corner of the Daytona pay slot panel and squeeze his hand in there and push the secret button for free credits. Don't know how he always got away with it he looked so suss!

Although believe it or not I actually didn't know it was an arcade game until recently. I played it death on The ZX Spectrum, I loved the Spectrum conversion. I got it one Christmas and must of played it for months and months, even after completing it multiple time, for me personally I just couldn't get enough of it.

It's kinda crazy finding out so many cool games had really cool soundtracks. The arcades I used to go to with my dad were always pretty busy and it was hard to hear the games a lot of the time. Definitely glad to see Space Harrier so high up on the list. I only played it for the first time 1 or 2 years ago when I got it on my switch and I fell in love with it. Definitely holds up today and it still looks really cool!

I love arcade games so much I turned my wayfair desk into a cabinet...drilled the holes for the buttons and lever, added supports so it is mounted to the corner walls of my office so I can really jam down on the lever without moving the desk a nanometer. It barely obstructs my ability to type and use the desk, too...best idea I have had in awhile. I love it, and use the stick for everything from Streets of Rage Remake to Rondo of Blood to Final Fantasy 7 to Chilren of the Atom and all my fav 90's arcade titles via retroarch.

@GryphonICD 2 года назад

Can you imagine trying to survive family holidays back in the 80s and 90s without the aid of arcades? A truly horrifying thought. Great list.

@mamehaze 2 года назад

I do find it fascinating how different this list is compared to anything I'd put together if doing one myself. I wasn't fortunate enough to get to play the majority of games in an arcade, but instead have spent over 20 years getting them emulated so what I've been exposed to and grown to enjoy is almost entirely different. I should put together that list of my own at some point, but I know just how long it takes to record the footage, script everything, record and edit the voiceover etc. even for a short 10-15 minute video, so I can only imagine how long this almost 2 hour one too you.
