the 4 player Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles game. It had 2 buttons - jump and attack and I could finish the game for less than 2 bucks! LOL!



I always like pinball games and it didn't matter what it was. When I was a kid I'd head down to the local arcade (that my mom used to tell me to stay away from) and play for hours. The driving games you could sit in were always fun too.

I used to love playing this space shooting game at South of the Border in the early 90s. I forget the name of it, probably Space Alien Invaders:







good times. I remember when 75¢ was a lot of money to waste on an arcade, but arcades were a luxury back then.



In Middle-High School:





I used to spend some time meeting friends at this awesome arcade at out mall until it closed down. My buddy had a few hundred non-arcade coins he received free that weren't from that arcade, so we'd play for free all the time. They must have been shocked at how many coins were bogus haahaha. Probably why they closed down... :*(
