Centipede was my favorite.    I have a Galaxian (?) in the basement.   Needs a tune up.

+1.  Tempest was slick.

alas most of the mainboards had heat problems, so most were toast.  Would be cool to find a cabinet.

Discs of Tron was so much better than the regular Tron game, it's not even funny.

One I remember fondly, I can still hear the unit placement sounds:

My gateway drug was Asteroids.

It led me to Space War as soon as I found it.

This, favorite game evah. Playing with my two best friends, late 70's, in no condition to drive, friend 1 is on his 1st quarter for about an hour, I said "he is great with his hands, chicks must love him", friend 2 immediately replies "he must love himself".

If ever you find yourself in Laconia,nh you MUST! Make the visit to funspot. It's literally an arcade museum. All broken up by decades, manufacturer, developer etc. Not to mention a pretty serious collection of pinball machines.

Wow, you guys are bringing back some wonderful memories. What a awesome time to be a kid in America. Riding bikes and skateboards to the arcade, hanging out with friends, flirting with girls and not a care in the world.

I sure do miss those simpler times when America was still America and all was right in our little universe....
