If you could have one arcade, which one?

Galaga would be mine.  I got quite hooked on the game over the last month due to not having any internet access, and boy, I now appreciate the game on a whole new level for being pure fun
 I did used to have a conversion of the game on my old BBC Master (Zalaga) which was always always semi-popular for me, though I've never played it as much as I have in most recent times.
If I could have a second place arcade, it would probably be Super Puzzle Fighter 2 Turbo - perhaps the greatest puzzle game ever - or Mr. Do as it was one of the first games I ever played on my BBC (as Mr. Ee), and still love it.
ÂÂÂ
What would yours be?

well, i already have a pretty good collection of arcade games (Neo Geo MVS 4 Slot, Vigilante, Nintendo VS), but if there was one that i would buy right now if i had the opportunity and the money, would be one of my all-time favorite games: Burgertime
if i got to choose a pinball machine, since i already have my numer 1 choice (Super Mario Bros.) id take my number 2 choice: The Sopranos

I would definitely want the 2-in-1 Ms. Pac-Man and Galaga cabinet. That thing rocks hardcore.

What do you people want stand up cabinets for? With the emulations and compilations that are out there today, you can get a near real arcade feeling at a regular computer/tv.
Sure, it's not actually real, but it's a lot closer to the real thing than playing a racing or flying game on emulation, instead of on a huge cabinet with a seat and moving parts.
That said, I'd love a big virtua racing cabinet. The one that's shaped like a real race car. Or maybe A sega rally cabinet. I can't chose!

like you said...its "almost" real
i dont want the almost feel...i want the REAL feeling
i also hope to get a crusin' usa at the next super auctions if the price is right....because of the real feeling of a real race set, shifter, etc

I would want (obviously) a Mortal Kombat cab. (Not so much MK4)
Just as utterly amzing would be Asteroids, Tempest, Centipede or one of the Point Blank ones.
I have played in arcades very little compared to most of the rest of you guys so i have missed out on alot of great games.

I would definitely want a Viper Phase 1 (New Version) cab. This is a lesser-known and rare game made by Seibu Kaihatsu, the makers of the more popular Raiden Fighters.

You could always build a MAME cabinet, as long as you have a fast enough computer for the game you want (and the game is supposrted by MAME, most are) its practically better than the real thing if you build it right (or buy, but people rip you off, go ahead and search ebay)
I'm planning on building one when I get enought money and stuffing it with roms for every system known to man. (well the fun ones at least)
(damn thats a lot of parentheses)

Yeah, I think it's nicer to achieve the whole experience by having 'the real thing'. I can play MAME on my PC quite happily, but having a real working arcade cab would give that extra special value.

okay since were talking about the ENORMOUS arcade cabs now I would like to add House of the Dead II and a 4 seat Daytona USA to my wish list.

The original Tapper game where you play as a bartender serving Budweisers to get patrons out the door. I especially enjoyed the Outer Space levels.
I like the game because it used a joystick and a beer tap stick on the console. That, and is was the only Arcade game I've ever mastered.
The version that's on Midway Arcade Treasures is okay, but it's too politically correct (it's called Root Beer Tapper) imo, so it won't offend the masses.

I would love to have Star Wars: The Arcade Game and a cocktail version of Galaga/Ms. Pac-man.

I also wouldn't mind a USA vs.USSR bubble hockey table. The "BOO!" button was a fun touch.
