Which arcade video games have you completed?

Jack Burton:
lol, it means putting in a quarter and playing till the game won't let you play anymore.

Most "modern" games aren't like the old ones and have a preset number of stages that you can complete before you see an ending and a game over screen.

Ok, that's what I thought. Basically, playing until killscreen then? (ALA level 255 in puckman/pacman)

Yeah, that's the most powerful move in that game. DDII, not so much.

Seeing the credits/Congrats screen = beating a game.

Maybe I am just tired, but am I missing something here? What exactly is a "One credit completion"? Do you mean using one credit to end up back at the beginning again and/or repeating old enemies you already defeated in a "never ending" and/or "kill screen" game? Or maybe hitting high score, or even a roll over?

As I said before anyone can finish a game with a bag of money, but imagine gun to your head, 1 (one) quarter/coin in your hand and choice of one arcade machine and you will be spared if you finish it.
By finish I understand:
rolling the score,
seeing congratulatory credits rolling
and seeing all the levels and starting from level 1 again

 
Which arcade games could you pick and win?

BTW I recall completing 1 more game: 99 the last war! It's not very hard since I was able to finish it without the shield. Game was in a cabinet where there was only one button for fire and no shield whatsoever!
