Some friends opened an arcade in our neighborhood in Harvey/Marrero, on the Expressway. We could ride anywhere between the Canal, Barataria, the River, and the Expressway...we could ride our bikes to the arcade. It lasted about three years or so, but what a great time!!! Especially during the summer. Two bucks, and air conditioning.

Pac Man
Defender
Asteroid (had one at K&B across the Expressway, too.)
Galaxian
Galaga
Phoenix
Dig Dug
Gorf
Berzerk--"Intruder Alert, Intruder Alert"
Qix
Qbert
Space Invaders
Missile Command
Death Race
Star Wars
Tempest

Gauntlet with three other guys in the arcade at Loyola, always fun

PGA Golf, Baseball, trac-ball soccer and football.

There was a Defender-type game, but with a chopper and old school military targets, man can't remember the name.

Good days.
