What would be in YOUR personal arcade?

[Tronky.it]

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.
