Favorite lesser known classic arcade game

Player 3:
Radar Scope by Nintendo. It's like Galaxian from a more lowered angle.
Well Fed Games:
I think Juno First can be listed among these, too. Excellent early vertical space shooter.
Tiberian Fiend:
My favorite game every time my family went to the skating rink was Cruisin'.  I never got to play it much, but I certainly spent a lot of time staring at it and wishing I could play.
IG-88:
Kid Niki, 1986, Irem.  Love this platformer for some reason!

Pepper 2, 1982 Exidy. Very challenging.

Spectar, 1980, Exidy. Maze game.

Eyes, 1982, Rockola. Maze/Pacman clone.

Spiders, 1981, Sigma. Shooter. Brilliant game.

Cosmic Guerilla, 1979, Universal. Shooter. Puts Space invaders to shame.


I could go on & on. But these were at the top of my most played list.

Can't believe I never heard or seen of of Starship1 until now - it's captivating.  That's one cool looking cabinet too.  Love these kinds of threads!   

I'll second Bomb Bee and Cutie Q if you have a spinner, and Rescue if you have dual sticks.  Also a big fan of Astro Blaster and Astro Fighter.  There's something about that blue background and enemy movement - it could almost be a modern parody of a typical 70's space game.

I also like Tail to Nose, which is an overhead formula 1 racing game playable with 2-way joy and 2 buttons.  1988 still considered classic?
