ah ok sorry didnt see that... but still it needed a larger credit. Metal Slug owns the 2P non fighting game play on my machine anyway, everyone loves it

No. No-one mentioned it mainly due to the first post asking not to mention fighters. :)
During the 80's 2-player games where pretty much the norm. Just about any game will allow a second player to join in simultaneously. I would hazard a guess and say there's more simultaneous 2-player games than there are 1player and alternating 2-player.
This is the kind of thing where SortInfo would help enormously:

One of my all-time favorites is Space Duel.
I built an entire swappable CP just for that one.
For those who haven't played it, it's basically two player Asteroids.
There are 2 modes for you to play.
The first has two separate ships, one for each player.
The really fun one is the one that has both ships linked together by a "rope".
If one guy thrusts, and the other doesn't, you end up in a spin around the rope.
That mode requires two players with alot of skill and coordination.
Another favorite of mine is Blasteroids, but it requires two spinners.

That's the name of that game? I loved that one. Thanks for mentioning it. I might have to through a few extra spinners in my soon to be started cp (easily said :laugh:).
