There are a couple more that I don't remember the names.  Help me identify at least my favorite of all of them.  Its this game where you ride on a motorcycle, and all the graphics are primitive polygons (like Star Fox).

Are you thinking of Stun Runner??

Some of my favs:
Star Wars Cockpit (Vector)
Tempest
Gauntlet
Moon Patrol (don't know why, but it's addictive)
Warlords Upright (the 4 player of the cocktail is better, but the art on the upright is amazing)
Blasteroids (sequel to Asteroids, very fun and fast paced)

I know I'm missing quite a few, but those are the ones that came to mind immediately.

There's a lot of good arcade cabinets out there, but as far as cocktail cabinets, the only one I've ever tried was Asteroids and it was awesome!!

With my relativley new found intrest in arcade collecting, whenever I go to an auction I like to bring a "Top 20" list with me.  Whenever I see two machines that I am seriously considering bidding on, but I know I can only afford one or the other, if they are in similar condition I go default to which ever is higher on my "Top 20" list.  so here is what I got:

1.   Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles 4 player
2.   Crime Fighters
3.   Double Dragon
4.   Galaga
5.   Pac-man/Ms. Pac-man
6.   Street Fighter 2 Turbo/Champion Edition
7.   Robotron 2084
8.   Killer Instinct
9.   Mortal Kombat 2/3
10.   X-Men 4 player
11.   Gauntlet/Gauntlet 2
12.   Star Wars
13.   ESWAT Cyber Police
14.   Neo Geo 2 or 4 slot
15.   Nintendo Play Choice 10
16.   Final Fight
17.   Cabal
18.   Captain America and the Avengers 4 player
19.   Centipede
20.   Arkanoid
21.   Punch-out/Super Punch-out
22.   Ninja Gaiden

I have 22 on here, because I already have 2 of the games listed in the top 20 (TMNT and SFII: CE)

Not necessarily in order...

1. Pong
2. Defender
3. Tempest
4. Tetris
5. Major Havoc
6. Gauntlet
7. Video Pinball
8. Super Pac-Man--Never did understand why people whined about this one for straying from the Pac-Man formula, where you had to unlock doors and you didn't eat dots. So what? You also had super speed and bonus rounds.
9. Challenger--A neat combination of Asteroids and Space Invaders.
10. Space Fever (Color) A blatant Space Invaders rip-off, but it gave you three games though.
