Title: Top co-op mame games
Post by: TNVols on June 03, 2011, 02:48:20 pm

Looking to narrow down the mame cab selections.   Can you all weigh in on what the best coop games are out there.  i only have a two player set up, but it wouldn't bother me to use only two on multi Player formats such as gauntlet....

Right now the kids love rampage world tour....

Bomberman is a great game!  It's 1-4 player, but I would NOT call it coop.  I consider blowing up your human and computer compatriots less than cooperative.  :timebomb:

God I love MAME.  Been playing arcade games since forever and I never knew there was a sequel to Defender and Stargate, let alone, one that let's you play co-operatively.

Thanks for the mention.  ;D
