I don't know how many we're listing, but here's my top 5.

1. NBA Jam - would go to a local restaurant and play this game with friends, not even going into the eatery area, just playing this game.
2. The Simpsons - was a frequent during birthday parties, great 4 player game.
3. Karate Champ - was everywhere when I was little and while I wasn't very good at it, I remember it vividly
4. Mario Bros. - when my dad lived near a Gulf station, this was the video game inside. I'd play it every time we went there.
5. Cruisin' USA - Was the first video game at the local Wal-Mart and I played it frequently.

Rolling Thunder- played it constantly at the bowling alley across the street from my school in the late 1980s.

Captain America and the Avengers- I played this alot in the arcades and remember being disappointed with how bad the NES version was by comparison IMO when I later got it for my Nintendo.

Karate Champ- played it for hours at the local small grocery store in the mid 1980s

Sunset Riders- In high school I worked at a McDonald's in a food court where there was also an arcade and this was the game I played the most there. It led to me getting the game on both the SNES and SEGA versions.

Wow, how could I forget Karate Champ... Played the hell out of that one. And yeah Mr. Vegas the NES version of Captain America & The Avengers was horrible.

Galaga
Elevator Action
NBA Jam
Cyberball - my friends and I would get to this old arcade and be the first one's as they opened to play the Cyberball, at one point the arcade owner put a 2 game limit on one person each, that was the most popular game I remember when it came out...
