Title: spinner games
Post by: mastercave on May 11, 2003, 12:07:56 pm

what games use a spinner? I'm an arcade player from the street fighter generation so i've never even seen an actual spinner before. Just wanted to know if it would be a good addition to my cp.

The music in this is horrifically catchy, and the between-stages animations mesmerize me
