1.  Donkey Kong (by far my fave arcade game)
2.  San Francisco:  Rush the Rock Alcatraz Edition (fave driving game)   8)
3.  Gyruss (love the music . . . still haven't reached Earth though)   :(
4.  BattleZone (love the game, hate those #$%^ missiles, though)  ;D
5.  Robotron (the most insane fun for a quarter)   :o

If I owned a house, and had a basement arcade, these 5 would have to be in it. Actually 6, I'd get 2 Rush the Rock and link them for multi-player goodness.

Honorable Mentions:  Super GT (a.k.a. Scud Race; again I'd have 2 and link them), Rush the Rock 2049 (again 2 linked), Star Wars (Original with the sitdown cabinet), Ms. Pac-Man, and maybe Pac-Man.

With John getting his Dragon's Lair, I'd probably squeeze one of those into my 'fantasy arcade' collection as well as my other fave laserdisc game 'Cliff Hanger'.  I am a huge Lupin the Third fan.

I wouldn't get Space Ace though.  That thing is way too hard.  Go on YouTube and search for Space Ace Arcade gameplay.  There's a video that shows the final battle.  It's insane!   :o
