This classic arcade game category is mostly games that dominated the 80's, and early 90's. These games didn't rely on fancy graphics to try to make up for a fundamentally boring game.  Games like these started and fueled the video game revolution!  Have fun playing them... I know I do!

Classic Arcade Games

Robotron
The original fast action arcade game from the 80's.  Blow away those pesky robots, and save the humans.  Very addictive!
Sinistar
Mine the astoroids as if your life depended on it.... because it does in this classic hit game from the 80's.
Spyhunter
Racing and shooting combined.  How could it possibly not be fun?  I've used a lot of quarters in the 80's on this one!
Defender
Fast paced, side scrolling, space shooter game.  One of the all time classics that any self respecting gamer from the 80's will recognize.
Pacman
This game never gets old.  I still see people put quarters into old Pacman coinops at arcades!
Asteroids
No harm in shooting at some rocks, right?  Looks like the original "vector graphics" version that used to be all the rage at the arcade over 2 decades ago.
Tetris
Though this game came some years after the video game revolution of the early 80's, it's was quick to earn "classic status".  It's genuanly satisfying when all the blocks right into place to eliminate a line.
Hexxagon
Does this puzzle game count as a classic?  Though I played this game briefly many years ago, it appears that it was quite popular not to long ago.   It's not an arcade game, but I don't have a puzzle category yet! :)
Space Invaders
Shoot the alien invaders as they buz about above you.  This is the epidemy of "Classic Arcade".
Snake
That game you play on your cell phone.  It's also an addictive classic that played on "state of the art" game machines of  the old days.
Root Beer Tapper
A cute little classic arcade game.  Nothing fancy, but addictive!
Bubble
Move a bubble around to clean the a dirty sink.  Avoid stuff that can burst your bubble.  Cute... nothing amazing.
Satans Hollow
Shoot pesky gargoyles, bridge bombers, and egg throwers while building a bridge to an area of lava, where you get to battle Satan.  Ok...but not one of my favorites.
