When Donkey King made it's debut at the town rollerdrome, it was about the coolest thing I'd ever seen. TRON was awesome though -- those tanks and speed bikes got to be a bitch after a while.

Other favorites:

Punch-Out!
Mat Mania
10-Yard Fight
Karate Champ
Kung Fu Master
Popeye
Kangaroo
Yie-Ar Kung Fu
Moon Patrol
Jungle Hunt
Shinobi
Double Dragon
Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom
Hogan's Alley
Track and Field (with the white rollerball)

And who could forget Operation Wolf. "You have sustained a lethal injury. Sorry, but you are finished... HERE."

Never thought I was actually playing with that game looked great at the time though.

Who didn't? The problem was you had to dodge shots for like 20 minutes before it kicked in and only the best players in the world could do it.


Well, I guess I was one of the best players in the world, because I could do it about 9/10 times.

at the end of my "arcade career", Track and Field became a favorite game.
you actually had to have fast fingers to hit both buttons. so it wasn't just a mental game...
