| What Arcade Era Do You Identify With The Most? |

I like early 80s to today. I was raised up in the Showbiz Pizza Place, Peter Piper Pizza era. Even today I commonly play arcade games at Dave & Busters, Nickel City, and Tilt arcades. BTW, to user Ginsu Victim, Metroid WAS an arcade game! There was a version of it available for the Nintendo Playchoice-10 system. If you go to this URL, and search for "Metroid", you will see a screenshot of it. http://maws.mameworld.info/maws/ |

come on, playchoice was just a glorified NES, that doesn't count :P |

I was born 20 years too late too. I voted for the 90's as I was growing up then. The Simpsons etc. do hold their special appeal to me but I much prefer the gameplay of the golden era games. Smash TV was probably my favourite game until I discovered Robotron 2084 :) Seems that my mates are the same. First thing they say when they hear I have an arcade cab build in progress is "Will it play Teenage Mutant Hero(Ninja) Turtles 4 player" . . . the second is to ask about NBA Jam :D I was at the right age for pinball though. Love the early 90s machines. |

Me too. I really like the golden games, but I have much better memories about the 90's. Guess a mixture would be nice. 90's music with 80-ies games. 80's music sucks beyond sucking (except a few MJ songs, as they sport a Quincy Jones 70's baseline). |

Like some others, I actually identify with games over a long span of time. My current favorite game is my Golden Tee Fore, and that is only a few years old. The games that got me into MAME, and therefore the ones I really identify with are all Golden Age though. Donkey Kong, Defender, Robotron, Moon Patrol, Time Pilot and Xevious. |
