I've got a few of the oldies on my Wii...kids love them! Video games just aren't what they used to be anymore.

I'd love to have one of the standup classic video consoles that modded for a ton of games like a ClassiCade Upright or a X-Arcade Machine.:biggrin:

I love classic gaming!! I'm so glad someone posted about this. I would rather play some good arcade games or Sega classics than a x-box 360 any day. I have every major system up to PS1 emulated on my computer with just every game you could want. I even built my own MAME cabinet (for anyone that doesn't know mame is a program that allows you to play 1000's of arcade hits on your computer). Me and my friends love staying up drinking and playing the classics like pacman, donkey kong, gauntlet, ect, on it. Nice to see some other people on here into classic gaming.

The sad thing is, none of the sequels really compared to the original. Not that they were bad, but the original was far superior. With Super Mario Bros., there were many games that captured the magic of the original in a way that no AK sequel ever did.

old school games
i love donkey kong and haven't played it in years, my wife has a copy of it on her nintendo DS. just like the old school, i actually ran into a stand up one at a bar on 6th st in austin about 4 yrs ago and played it a few times. there was a guy who had his quarters lined up playing it like crazy. we chatted for a few and he said about once a week he'll go there drink a few beers and play it. been along time since i played that one but if you really want to go back, i used to play PONG, and colleco vision back in the day. i ran into an original atari 2600 with games at a pawnshop for 100.00 the other day. crazy how these old systems bring that kinda money.

Back around 1982-83 when you had to go to a arcade my favorite was Pulsar.
Everyone was playing Space Invaders, Pac-Man, Donkey Kong, Frogger and Centipede.
I liked Frogger and Centipede, but Pulsar was different. Galaga was another favorite. Do you remember Pulsar?

My favorite was crazy climber. I would play for hours. I am actually building a tabletop mame cabinet so I can pass the fun of the old arcades to my boys. Any time we go to Funspot in NH, they head right to the third floor, where all the classics are. Anybody else have MAME cabinets?
