Great 3p+ Arcade games?

nitzmoff · Sep 2006

I brought my roms (boo! hiss!) into work and play them routinely at lunch with a coworker. Now others are starting to want to join in as well. What are your favorite 3 player or more arcade games? I need to find more than the few beat em ups and the like I have now.

Simpsons arcade game hands down.

Xenobond · Sep 2006

Yeah, Simpsons for sure.
That and X-Men & TMNT, of course.

Sunset Riders has a four player version AFAIK.

CheapAlert · Sep 2006

Cadillacs & Dinosaurs, accept no subsitute.

(called "dino" in the romsets)

Also most Konami beat'em ups are 4 player capable, including Turtles in Time, Sunset Riders, Bucky O'Hare, Vendetta (LOL), Simpsons and some others.

im not an old timer like you fossils, but i cant live without sonic 3 and Z ( well, not a rom, but i have to emulate dos to run it...)

Captain Commando,
The D&D arcade games and Ivan "Ironman" Stewart's Super Off-Road come to mind.

Tower of Doom supported 3, the other only had 2.

Don't forget the Gauntlet games!

Golden Axe

edit: sorry, that's only two player

Ninjas hit the nail on the head, CAPTAIN COMMANDO!

everyone pretty much named the best of the best. All the konami and any capcom games are usually ace. I personally own Turtles and Turtles in Time and i must say 4player rounds of that are pretty intense.

Xenobond · Sep 2006

There is some kind of fantasy style beat em up out there with 4+ players. I thought it was Golden Axe, but I was wrong. OK, just looked it up, and it looks like there were a couple of Dungeons & Dragons: Tower of Doom & Shadow Over Mystara. And it's made by Capcom, so it's pretty darn good.

Oh yeah. Gauntlet is also a good one!

'knights of the round' definately
edit: ah nuts it might just be 2p

monster · Sep 2006

Its containment of tiger testicles might not really be safe for work :P

Pit-Fighter and Rampage.

nitzmoff · Sep 2006

Thanks everyone. It's a shame that the only real ones out there are beat em ups. Those get old after a while.

I remember seeing a 4P version with double screenns a a 2P version with a single screen.

unfortunatly thats really all there is, unless you want sports games. arcade games are usually meant to be simple and quick so anyone can play or jump in. not gonna be as deep as most pc or console games are today

Just gotta find one you like enough to continue to play.

Justin Meisse · Sep 2006

on a related note, after upgrading my entertainment center I have all the material to make a mame cabinet, huzzah!

Dimahoo... one of the greatest vertical shooters/worst translated game ever.
