1. Street Fighter 2 Turbo

2. Virtua Fighter 2

3. Killer Instinct

honorable mentions: Tekken 2, Killer Instinct 2, Mortal Kombat 2, Super Street Fighter 2 Turbo, Mrs. Pacman, Mortal Kombat. That's a lot of 2s.

-based on the height of my time at the arcades, I suppose.

The only thing I ever played at the arcades were Time Crisis 2, Metal Slug 3 and Daytona. And I do remember standing around and watching people (a lot!) duel it out in Street Fighter 2 and The King of Fighters. I actually had more fun watching people play. Weird...

Twilight pinball is my favorite pinball machine. So easy though, but man, what fun :D. "You unlock this door with the key of imagination" - genius!

  1. Xevious
  2. Space Invaders
  3. Star Wars (1983)

Then of course any pinball game with Dark Knight (not Batman), Playboy, or the mechanical version of Aladdin being preferred.

NBA JAM

Revolution X(Aerosmith shooting game)

Ghouls'n Ghosts

Samurai Showdown

MK2 & 3

Killer Instinct

Guerilla War(SNK)

Offroad

Crazy Taxi

Double Dragon

Bad Dudes

Wonder Boy

Mad Dog McCree (Live-action cowboy shooter), many don't like it. I was mesmerized when it came out personally.

And I'm sure I still forgot plenty. Naming 3 is a hard task, considering all the classy games that came out.

Star Wars Dragon's Lair Mach 3 (The one where you pilot an F-14) Dragon's Lair and Mach 3 introduced gamers to a new format. These gams were played off of a LaserDisc.

Lol, great to see you guys share the same enthusiasm as I have for this game. I'd love to see this on an arcade compilation for one of the consoles. I remember at a certain point in the game where there was a female streaker that ran unto the field naked, making the referee turn red and collapse on the ground. Great game, especially considering when it was made!

Yup, you also had a dog running on the field or the ref getting hit with a shoe. Great great game. And as I believe it's available in one of the Taito Legends compilations.

Thx for the tip, but it's the inferior version from 1990. The ones we're talking about are from 93/94/95. Hopefully they'll still bundle them in one of their future compilations.

I just can't limit it to only 3, I'm sorry. I was driven to the beat-em up games as a child, mostly. So my list is pretty heavy on those: -Altered Beast -Golden Axe -Metal Slug -Metal Slug 2 -Raiden -Raiden II -Spider-Man (Only released on Arcade beat-em up) -Superman (Only released on Arcade beat-em up) -Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: The Arcade Game -X-Men (Beat-Em up, not the fighter)

I'm in agreement with your first 2, though I wasn't a big fan of T.T. for some reason. I usually played Street Fighter II, Galaga, and Metal Slug a lot though.

Mad Dog McCree was awesome but extremely short I never played it in arcade but I played it on the PC and Sega CD. I remember the Sega CD one having a lot of problems too.
