What was the last arcade game you played?

Postby Lucas » Sat Nov 7, '09, 11:49 am

Arcades are kind of out of fashion in Australia (and the US, I presume) nowadays. What was the last game you recall playing at one and how long ago was it?

The last arcade I visited was when I was on holiday in Brisbane back in 2006 and the last games I played that day were Metal Slug 5 & Street Fighter Alpha 2.

There used to be an arcade in the city I live in but not any more it was bought out by some other business. Now instead they have a simulator race car arcade set up so unless you’re into racing games there’s no other reason to go there cause that's all they cater for. I haven’t played on any of the machines inside but I have been there.

The last one that I can really remember was Die Hard Trilogy. When I was in college, they had a few arcade machines in the student gathering area, near the bookstore and cafeteria. That was a good number of years ago.

I know I've played some games at an actual arcade one time since then, but I can't recall the names of those. I know it had Super Street Fighter II, but I didn't play it that day.

Let's see, I've either played a racing game or a DDR-like game most recently. That was a couple years ago when I still went to the Huskie Den (a hang out for college students at NIU). :P Now that I'm a 5th year student, I haven't really had the time to go. I really should go at least one more time before I graduate...

Probably Time Crisis 4. Man I love that game. Too bad the left side is constantly getting broken. =\

The last arcade game I played was X-Men while I was at the boardwalk with my old man a few weekends ago.

It's been awhile since I played any arcade games, but they are so much fun. I seem to remember a Street Fighter game also, and perhaps a Terminator game, but can't really recall the others. I love to play the arcade pinball games too.

Define Arcade games? I went to one this year, and played a lot of a Dance Dance Revolution SuperNova machine they had there. In fact everytime I see a DDR machine somewhere, I have to stop and dance.
