| What year would you pick as the quintessential arcade year? |

| Chuckolicious:
I'm dealing with a detail of my home arcade and want some input as to "THE" year of the arcade. My opinion is 1979, but 77-83 is a valid window. Thoughts? |

1981 |
| Blanka:
I would say 1981. In that year Donkey Kong, Galaga and ms. Pac Man were released, and Pac-Man was coming to steam. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1981_in_video_gaming |

1994...KOF!!! Apparently that falls outside of the "acceptable" range, so I'd go with 1982 (Dig Dug, Pole Position, Tron, QBert, Joust, Robotron, ...) |
| Benevolance:
I think this sort of depends a bit on when you were old enough to go to the arcade. :D |
