Was too young for 80's arcade games.
The 90's were my arcade years.

Played the shit out of anything Capcom made from 1990+
Best company by far.
Best fighters (no contest)
Best bmups (no contest)
Great platformers and shmups.

xain'd sleena, rastan, double dragon, cadash, darius
taito had some mid/late 80's magic when i was a kid espesially the dual screen stuff.
ghosts and goblins was (and still is) great.
Sega had some serious swag too with afterburner/outrun it, Golden Axe gets taken for granted around here considering how perfect it was/is.

Not sure, but that one is one of my favorites, and they never did a proper home version, although the Genesis version came close, they had to ruin it with restarting the entire game after each death. Anyway, I have some good memories of playing Twin Cobra in the darkest corner of a huge beloved arcade in the mid-80s.

>>	Anonymous Sat May 11 09:20:21 2019 No.5566837 >>5566458 The original K. Tiger had checkpoints, but Twin Cobra gave you respawns where you died. Twin Cobra is mostly an easier game, but the rate of fire in your gun isn't as good (only 3 shots can be on screen at a time as opposed to 4)

>>	Anonymous Sat May 11 14:46:04 2019 No.5567513 >>5567172 Joust is really one of the greats. It's no wonder Nintendo copied it with Balloon Fight. Honestly I love the classic arcade-style NES games just as much as the platformers.

Double Dragon, Ghouls 'n Ghosts, Joust, Kyuukyoku Tiger, Ninja Gaiden, Ninja Spirit, Oscar: Psycho-Nics, Rastan, Robotron: 2084, Rolling Thunder, Shadow Dancer, Shinobi, Strider, The New Zealand Story, Wardner, Willow, Wonder Boy in Monster Land. Sega's racers were alright, Super Hang On has a fantastic Fusion soundtrack.
