    Gotta be defender. I got really lucky once at galloping ghost and got the opportunity to meet Sam Dicker (the man behind the legendary sound effects). He watched me play the game a bit, told me I know what I’m doing and took a picture with me in front of the cab. I will NEVER forget that and it further cements defender as my all time favorite arcade machine.

    Galaga, pole position and joust were my go to games. The Star Wars game was always fun too. Gauntlet was great with a group of friends especially if I was at an overnight lock in where they would just load up all the games with credits and let you play all night into morning. Rampage was real fun that way too.

    They should make a "bar top" version with legs that fold out from the bottom, if you want to allow it to stand freely. As far as favorite arcade games, I don't think I could narrow it down to just 1. I loved playing Midnight Resistance, the G.I. Joe Arcade game, and I loved Crisis Zone. Darkstalkers also holds a special place in my heart, since I love the horror theme.

    Prehistoric Isle. I loved it. Never could get very far but still was mesmerized by it. I remember being 9-10 years old standing around the machine watching older kids play it. My heart was in it just as if I were playing it myself and I hoped each time to see more of "the story" which was actually just the levels of the game. But there was also another top-down game similar to it and I can't remember its title. It was top down though, not side scrolling... Not 1942 (or 3) same type of airplane and also some kind of jungle-like fantastic beast enemy type environment...

The light-cycles, the disc battles, and the tank bettle! That's totally a bucket list thing for me. I MUST get myself a Tron arcade game. I'm fine with a replica as long as the controls are all there.

How do vertical games look on the full size Legend? I really hate when games like Galaga get squashed down or Pac Man gets stretched because of screen ratios. Thanks in advance! 🙂

    Favorite arcade game? Personally I loved Gauntlet, that's a favorite of mine and an absolute blast if you can get 4 people.

    This would be the ideal way to play balloon fight, cuz the vertical screen?
    Or would it, not sure how that wuld work. I don't know if you can get nintendo games on that thing though.

    What’s your opinion on the Legends Gamer Mini? It’s just the control board that connects to a console to display on a TV. If I buy any of these it’ll have to be that one because of the lower price and I’m not sure what to expect.

      They have options that are literally just the joystick that plugs into the TV of your choice, too.

      @@JohnRiggs I’ve heard conflicting stories on if the AtGames Legends systems have a lot of hardware issues over time, have you had any problems with them in your experience?
