What killed the Arcade for you?
yotsuya:
I thought the gangs of juvenile delinquents that took over the arcades led to the downfall.
Mikezilla:
I liked your King Kong reference.

This actually was the case for a couple of arcades in my area. One of them was so bad with drug dealers a squad car was almost always parked in the driveway. Come to think of it, maybe the cop was there buying drugs too. LOL

The late 80's to early 90's was the best period. I think we could all agree on that.

Uh, no. In fact, no doesn't begin to describe the amount of no... :lol Defender, Donkey Kong, Moon Patrol, Spy Hunter, Robotron, Space Invaders, Asteroids, Centipede, Tron, Tempest, Star Wars, Q*Bert, Frogger, Burgertime. I could name 50 more great early 80's games no problem.
That time ruled. If you weren't born, still crapping your pants, or even in a position to be asking your parents if you could play a game before 1984, you just have no idea what you're even saying.
