DashRendar:

What era of arcade games do you tend to play, because you have great memories of them? 

Which era were you busy popping quarters (or dollars) into arcade machines to get your fix?

Ginsu Victim:

Metroid is not an arcade game.

Golden Age for me.

I used tape and thread :)  Worked great on Asteroids.

I grew up playing almost all of the most popular games in the Golden Age. My parents bought a bowling alley in 1980. The previous owner didn't know anything about video games, he had games like Circus that was already 3 years old. So my Dad let me decide which games to request from the vendor. I remember he was shocked when Pole Position was bringing in $400 a week.
