--- Quote ----trackball games
I'm suprised at how few I really play.  I thought I would use it MUCH more then I do... especially now that I have a spinner....  But I'm sticking with the classics.

That's funny...  I probably play more trackball games than anything else.  The trackball games seem to be the games that never lose their lustre, so we keep coming back for more.
AlanS17:
I included a couple new categories and left a couple others out:

side-scrolling fighters: double dragon, final fight, golden axe
fighters: KI (followed by anything Capcom)
puzzle: super puzzle fighter 2 turbo
shooters: raiden 2
basketball: nba jam, nba hangtime
golf: golden tee
bowling: league bowling
dennis808:
All of the above, and:

-football: speedball2
-golf: dunno...
-brawlers: Sokonuke Taisen Game ( http://www.vgmuseum.com/images/arcade3/02/255.html )
-side-scrolling fighters: Vendetta (highly underrated!)
-fighters: Wakuwaku 7
-shooters: Galaga '88 and Twinkle Star Sprites
-platform: liquid kids
-puzzle:  puzzle bobble (please someone show me the trackball option!!!)
-gunners: Railchase
-trackball games: hmm...haven't got a trackball yet, but i'd say Irritating Maze
-bowling: Simpsons Bowling

I tried to name not so well known, but nonetheless great games...
Skadar:
Resurrecting this thread because I'm looking to find some good games that I've never tried before.

There should be a "spinner" category as well!
Current favorite spinner games:

Cameltry (Wow!  Awesome game)
Tempest (of course)
Arkanoid 2

Another new shooter I found the other day is "Boogie Wings".  Great graphics and music, but the game is a bit of a button masher.


Mark70:
-soccers (didnt find one for now)
soccer games are usually good if they're not too strictly timed. but I can never remember the names.  I think it's Taito soccer, but I'll check.

-football (not sure about this one neither)

-golf
I remember golden tee being much better than the version I've got running. button left, button right, roll... no club selection.. seems kind of thin

-brawlers (would say simpsons)
Cadalacs and Dinosaurs is perhaps the most under appreciated game ever.  Beat people up and get rewarded with hamburgers.  It doesn't get better than that.
Captain Commando is good, as is xmen.

-shooters (I like strikers 1945)
I'm going with heavy barrel. 

-plateform (one that came in mind is Toki)
Black Tiger is of course great, but I was suprised by Battle Chopper despite the graphic style.

-puzzle (tetris of course, I know this one was too easy :)
I'm really enjoying Pang.  Challenging to say the least.  Maybe it doesn't fit the puzzle category, but maybe that's what makes it good.

-gunners (jurassic park)
can't say I've enjoyed a gunner that wasn't in a cabinet with a good gun on it.  I'm on a pc right now and my first cab probably won't have gund right away.

-trackball games (dont have favorite one yet)
