Top 10 Best Arcade Games of All Time

The Top Ten
1 Pac-Man

No not pac man enough said its more than a name it's the most challenging and fun arcade game of all time!

I love the fast paced action of it that keeps you on the edge. The joystick never stops!

2 Donkey Kong

This game started MARIO. MARIO saved gaming. This game was also the first game with jumping

Was the birth of Mario

3 Mortal Kombat ll

This is the best game ever hands down!

4 Pong
5 Space Invaders
6 Dig Dug
7 Frogger
8 Dragon's Lair

This game was revolutionary for its time. Most video games at the time were 4-bit/8-bit, but this game had graphics as if it was a movie. It was created by Don Bluth, who is a revolutionary animator and a former worker for Disney.

A game where making decisions controls the ending. Sounds great. But do you know of any modern console games like that?

Should be in the top 10. Talk about being ahead of its time.

9 Galaga

Greatest arcade game of all time. Pac-Man may be the most revolutionary and I do love Pac-Man as well but in my opinion it doesn't top Galaga.

10 Michael Jackson's Moonwalker

The best video game. It has the weirdest villains, best soundtrack, and most Michael Jackson like goal-save the children that are tied up in corners. The classic white suit and fedora outfit appears in this and when there are multiple players, there are different colors. It is so entertain because it is both fun and hilarious. Best dance breaks!

The Contenders
11 Centipede
12 Tron
13 Killer Instinct
14 Ultimate Mortal Kombat 3
15 Tetris

It's really upsetting to see today's arcades lacking so much in puzzle games such as this timeless gem. I could play Tetris for hours!

16 Mortal Kombat
17 Asteroids

I love this game, just can get enough of it, spent too many a coin, only complaint is the bad controls

18 Mortal Kombat 3
19 Altered Beast
20 Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (1989)
21 Swimmer
22 Mario Bros.

Mario and Luigi will grip you in a compelling adventure.

23 Galaxian
24 The Simpsons (1991)
25 Street Fighter II

This game was insanely popular when I was 10 years old. I remember kids dropping $20 in half an hour on this game. That says a lot! They must have made millions.

Street Fighter is underrated nowadays, nobody ever talks about it.
