More history...

from Barry Rodewald (bsr@hn.pl.net)
This is very interesting... I'm 23, and never played Space Invaders (except on my old Atari 2600). The oldest game I played would probably be Galaxian, and sometimes I would play Donkey Kong, or Galaga. But when I was in my teens, an arcade parlour opened nearby. I would play games every day after school. But I was really hooked on Bubble Bobble and Street Fighter II (btw, it was released in 1991). I would spend an hour and a half playing Bubble Bobble, racking up 5-6 million point scores (Highest score - 9,999,990, the highest possible). I also enjoyed some Neo Geo games, including Fatal Fury, Art of Fighting, and Blue's Journey (although I don't normally like platform games). I also like pinball games - even though they were so damn infuriating! One particular pinball game I liked was Secret Service (Data East - 1987) probably because I got better at it, winning extra credits much of the time!
