What would be in YOUR personal arcade?

Unfortunately, I've never had the chance to play an arcade. I've always been able to try all the most famous games in that category on Xbox or PS—like Metal Slug, Contra, Pac-Man, Donkey Kong, etc.

Well, these would be the first games I'd put in my arcade cabinet. One game that would never be missing, however, would be Dragon's Lair. I have to thank my dad for introducing me to it as a kid; I've completed it about three times in its Xbox Live Arcade version; it's simply wonderful.
 
Sometimes I dream of giving up on everything and just open an arcade. The selection would be:
