Lego Star Wars II - The Original Trilogy
Organic Jerk:
Man I feel like LucasArts actually had mamers in mind or something... It's so perfect it's amazing..
Awesome and Fun game... great for quick play (Free Play) or for a long session (Story).... awesome cab-friendly controls...
a Serious A+
Not only that, but it gives your cab experience a very "Gauntlet Legends" type of appeal, as they have about 8 saves that can be loaded, so some people can actually save and continue their games very easily...
(The controls are probably so nice because the game was initially set up for consoles... all the controls seem to reflect that type of mentality... Either way, great for us!)
EDIT: The game also seems to automatically edit its graphical features( and access to them) for older video cards... I'm currently running on a 1.7ghz machine with a Geforce 3 and it runs great, albeit without the fancy shaders, but still quite the looker...

I have Lego SW I and the we got the kids Lego SW II for x-mas. It is about all we play on the cabinet now. I externally mounted a cd drive in the cabinet just so we could swap out the cd's for all our pc games.
Another A+ good clean fun one is Snoopy Vs. the Red Baron from Bandi/Namco..who incidentally is in the same building as my companies Santa Clara office. Strange coincidence.
The controls for this map perfectly to our cabinet as well.

Believe it or not, the lego star wars series for PC is what gets the most play time on my mame cabinet, BY FAR. My 6yr old son LOVES it. I tried getting him to play Lego Star Wars on the PS3 but since he'd learned how to play it on a MAME cabinet with Happ Supers and buttons he doesn't like it. We've also added Lego Indy to the MAME cab recently and it's getting a fair share of time these days.

My wife and I both loved playing this game and part 1 on the Xbox 360. Didn't even realize it was on the pc, but i bet its awesome on the arcade machine.
They have also released Lego Indiana Jones, and Lego Batman, but I have no idea for what platforms.
I tried the demo for Indiana Jones and it didn't seem to be quite as good. I have not tried the full game though.

Kind of a thread revival here.....
I have this installed on my cabinet machine and run it with a batch file through MA. Such a blast playing it with the arcade controls and my 10 year old and her friends have a blast when I load it up. I installed Star Wars, Lego Batman and Indy and they are a huge hit on the arcade cab
