I just wondered what you guys have on your list of favorite rare arcade games!

Mine are "I, Robot", Reactor, Dedicated Major Havoc, Timber, and Marble Madness! And, that is just the highlights of my list!  Grin

So, what are your guy's favorite rare arcade games?  ;)

I like Sega's Pulsar.  I am not sure how rare it is, but I don't think many people have it.

At the moment I think the list would have to be
Major havoc
Food fight

And that is about it for what I would consider rare.

rare? hmm..

City Connection is probably my rarest favourite game and I doubt I'll ever find one!

Another I would add would be Flicky.

Next to the collection of Bubble Bobble, Rainbow Islands, New Zealand Story, Snow Bros.

My favorite rare game is a copy of Link from the Past I left in my grandpa's attic. Super rare. Probably will never find it but.... crossing fingers, you never know.

Would love one obscure Nintendo title in the lineup (Space Firebird, Space Demon, etc).  I've heard there is dedicated or kit version of Solomon's Key that I would love to get my hands on, but I'm not 100% sure it exists

As far as pins go, Mystery Castle would be awesome, but the prices continue to skyrocket if you can even find one in the first place.  I just got a nice Bally Vector that is pretty hard to find, so I'm happy.  Not very desirable for collectors, but I really like the game and the quirkiness.

Lineup: DK, Vs Unisystem, Mario Bros, Bally Vector, Stern Meteor, SI cocktail

WTB: Burgertime, Galaga, PC10 cabinet, Pacman Cabaret, DE TMNT, DE Batman, Taxi, Funhouse, BTTF
