game endings
Donkbaca:
Just curious, what was the first arcade game that had an ending? I am not talking about hings like kill screens or that sort of thing, I am talking about mario save the princess type endings.
This may be the first thing to do on my new cab, see the first ending to a video game ever!
SavannahLion:
Phoenix maybe?

Depends upon what you mean by "ending". Most all classic games, even when you reached the end, allowed you to continue play. However a few of them did have a final level that was different from the main game, i.e. a boss battle. Phoenix has that, as does Gorf. I think that phoenix's release beat gorfs by a few months, but I'm guessing they were both in development at the time.
So yeah, Phoenix.
TOK:
Ghosts & Goblins immediately came to mind for me. Not sure if its the first (1985).
Think thats what the original poster is looking for, not something like Phoenix with an end boss. In that case, the original Japanese version of DK might be the first... the "end" screen is the rivet level where Kong falls and the girl is rescued. That effect is ruined for the US release, since they make it the second level.
