There was a game in the late 70s called Kickman that I loved but it never caught on. How could a game featuring a clown on a unicycle catching balloons on his head (and an occasional Pac-Man) not catch on?

Loved this game. What could be better then a simulated bike ride?

Loved it!

Loved that game. Wasn't the best at it, but I was way better at Joust than Defender.

I couldn't either...but I was like 5 years old and my friend's brother never bothered to explain it to me

I liked Joust but I never was very good at it. Frogger was my jam. I routinely would set high scores on it. I wanted to be good at Centipede and Galaxian but never could. I've played all of these on emulators over the years but they just aren't as fun without the original controls (Centipede without a trackball sucks).

The game that could really eat quarters, though, was Guantlet, since it let you continue on by pumping quarters into it during the game. I could easily go through a roll of quarters in an evening playing it with a friend. "Elf needs food badly"

That’s impressive as that is one of the hardest retro games

Xenophobe. Flushed a ton of quarters (tokens) at Metcalf South on that game.

I remember going to the arcade one summer day with my sister when I was a kid and playing Gauntlet for hours. Went thru $60 in quarters. Well, probably a few other games but mostly gauntlet.
