The arcade games we played in those years

Do you still remember the days when you saved money on meals just to go to the arcade to play arcade machines? Do you still remember the noise of the arcade?

Do you still remember the days when you went to a game arcade and were beaten up by your parents? Do you still remember the game that once left us a memory?

Below, I will list a few classic arcade games!

1. Street Fighter

"Street Fighter" is a fighting stand-alone game first launched by the Japanese company CAPCOM in 1987. Game series, the first generation game was released on August 30, 1987, and when we were children, we played "Street Fighter 2" in the arcade. It is widely regarded as the pioneer of fighting games, the originator of fighting games, and a classic of fighting games. It gives people the impression that it pays more attention to operability, that is, your strength is what it is. If you can beat it, you can beat it, and if you can't beat it, you can't beat it. Characters such as Long, Chunli, Ken, and Vega in the game have also been widely used in subsequent fighting movies, animations, and games.

2. Metal Slug

"Metal Slug" is a 2D side-scrolling shooting game developed by the Japanese company SNK. It was launched in arcade form in 1996. , follow-up games include "Metal Slug 2", "Metal Slug X", "Metal Slug 3", "Metal Slug 4", "Metal Slug 5", etc. Its various styles of levels, various forms of weapons, and rides make this game full of fun. The refreshing shooting feel, exaggerated characters, and excellent graphics make this game a childhood memory for many players. , but this game is relatively expensive, because as long as it hits an enemy bullet, the missile will die, so those who could clear the level back then were either great gods or children from rich families.

3. "Journey to the West"

"Journey to the West" is an arcade game produced by the developer Yixiang Electronics. It is based on the characters in "Journey to the West" The character is a game character, go through all the levels and achieve the final victory. In the first generation game, the protagonist is not Tang Monk, but Little Dragon Girl. The difficulty of the game is relatively high, and some monsters have rogue attack methods. If you are not careful, you will kill the protagonist due to unlimited attacks. When I was a child, due to the influence of movies and TV series, everyone would compete to choose Sun Wukong, thinking that he was the most awesome!

IV. The Three Kingdoms

"The Romance of the Three Kingdoms" is also an arcade game produced by Taiwan's Yixiang Electronics Company. It is an action-type clearance game adapted from China's "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms". Different from "Journey to the West", it was released later, the picture quality is better than that of "Journey to the West", and its series of works is also very large. There are classic works such as "Three Kingdoms 117", "Three Kingdoms 119", and "Three Kingdoms Return". Among them, "Three Kingdoms 119" and "Three Kingdoms Return" are the most fun and the most played. Compared with the 117 version, these two versions have more characters, and there is no need to call out the characters as fancy as the 117 version. The 119 version of the Four Swords can only use three swords (choose one of ice and explosive swords), and the plot and some details have been adjusted in the plot and some details. One of them is that you can use four swords. Friends at that time preferred to use Zhuge Liang, because Zhuge Liang's moves were more handsome and practical. Secondly, it was easy to increase points and levels. The most important thing was that he could use the four swords of fire, ice, explosion and electricity. (Only Zhuge Liang and Ma Chao can hold the Four Swords in the game) Of course, this game also has many small bugs (stuck in the Book of Heaven, infinite connections, etc.), and it is not a waste of money to clear the level.

5. King of Fighters

If Street Fighter is the originator of fighting games, then King of Fighters is the pinnacle of fighting games. There are many works in the King of Fighters series, among which the most popular one at that time was undoubtedly The King of Fighters 97.

Compared with the previous version, The King of Fighters 97 has changed the fighting engine, and the operation has become simpler, allowing many moves to be connected. This forms the gorgeous combos in 97, which enhances the playability and operability of the game, and attracts There were many arcade players at that time, and even the posters in game halls were almost all about The King of Fighters 97. Among them, there are also many bugs in it. People who know how to play can kill people directly with unlimited connections. For computers and humans, it is also relatively stupid. Many people use Yagami, Benimaru, Robert and other tricks that are relatively poor in operation to clear the level. Secondly, the most successful character created in King of Fighters 97 should be Yagami. After 97, no new character can match Yagami's status in the hearts of players. Nowadays, the arcade era has long passed, but many players still like to relive The King of Fighters 97 on various game platforms. It has to be said that King of Fighters 97 still has a high status in the hearts of arcade players.

There are many more childhood arcade games. The above are the ones I often played. If there are any other arcade games, you might as well talk about them in the comment area!
