No Galaga in your top 5? I would say it's number one for my generation, with Pac-Man coming in second.

I gave it consideration but as an 80s baby it wasn't quite cool enough to hold my attention

What was the name of that arcade game where you could pick one of four or five different characters to play with? One of the characters was a warrior and I remember a wizard. That game was pretty fun.

there are several from my generation of arcade-goers, but they're mostly newer so it's probably not what you're thinking of. i remember hitting up this one a lot

The game I'm talking about probably came out around 1987 or 88. I think NES made a version of it after the arcade.

Back in the 80s, if you went to school in HISD and made all A's or had perfect attendance, you got to go to Astroworld during a school day in May. One year, maybe 5th grade or so, myself and 3 friends went to the arcade and played Gauntlet for 4-1/2 hours.

Top 5
1) Spy Hunter
2) Centipede
3) Pac-Man
4) Gauntlet
5) Pole Position

I definitely knew some people in my neighborhood that played it a lot, D&D was pretty popular board game. . I tried to a couple of times but I never got into it. I knew a couple dudes who even got dressed up when they played, it was a different time I guess.

A few years ago I built a small MAME controller with proper arcade buttons. The games I found myself playing over and over were:

Robotron 2084
Defender
Donkey Kong
Galaga
Joust
