great article man. I used to love playing street fighter 2 in the arcade back in the day

loved the full cabinet games like gloc, virtua racing, daytona, radmobile and others that put you behind the wheel/flight stick/etc. I think my most favorite to this day still has to be galaxy force with the full tilt/swivel base.

Arcades are still around just not at the local mall like they used to be. Now I have to go to santa cruz or reno or someplace that has the capacity to house such grand entertainment boxes of old.

I remember blasting through my entire weeks allowance at the arcades in an hour. Those were the days..

Still run into some good arcades when I go on vacation, otherwise theyre pretty hard to come across, kinda sucks.

I really miss the reign of arcade games. When I was a kid, I used to go to the Boys & Girls Club across the street from my elementary school because they had several arcade games, which they would rig with hundreds of free credits. I used to spend hours playing Gauntlet and WWF Superstars. Le sigh, those were the days...

Modern gaming has made life more lonely.
I used to go meet tons of friends at the Arcade and even girls. YES real girls not geeks. I miss that life so much. Its just not the same now.

Golden Axe is a great game I enjoyed it on the SMS, Genesis and in the arcade. Great game but it truly was a quarter eater back in the day. I wish Sega could get the rights to the arcade port of Moonwalker another great arcade game I enjoyed. Collect so many monkeys and become Robo Michael lol.
