Going to quarter arcades as a kid to play Asteroids, Centipede, Zaxxon, Galaga, and Tempest.

I forgot about Centipede, that was one of the most addictive games of its time too.

Playing Target Fun with my brother on our Sears Video Arcade (rebadged Atari 2600.)

Playing baseball and football on Matel's Intellivision in 1979!

Pacman at the arcade early 80's. Getting 100,000 points for bragging rights!

I was 4, it was 87 in the gloomy communist Poland, we were at the seaside and my mother made the mistake of letting me into an arcade ... I don't remember what beat em up game it was that I saw there, but I was hooked. Gamer 4 life

We had a pong system that my brothers and I played quite a bit, and I'm pretty sure that was one of first systems you could get for the home. My first arcade type game that I really remember getting into was Defender. Loved that game, and could play it for quite a long time on one quarter.
