Are we talking arcade as in an arcade, or the NES, or both?

Well, I wasn't too big on arcade games - I mostly watched people play. I did like Pacman, though, and Ninja Turtles :smile:

You know, I once remember a time when Root beer Tapper was actual Beer Tapper, sponsored buy Budwiser... That's pretty much why the bonus round says "This one's for you!"

At first the game was called Tapper and the bartender served the customers Budweiser Beer. This game first only appeared in bars. But when it was time to bring the game to the family arcades, they decided it wouldn't be best to advertise beer to kids. So they changed the game to Root Beer Tapper and got rid of the Budweiser signs.

Ms. Pac Man. My cousin had one of those arcade games when he was younger. Every time I went to his house, I had to play it.

No offense to the original. I just never had a great chance to play it much.
