[Gallery] Retro old-school arcade

I wonder how many years of gaming experience you, dear readers, have? B.H. did a quick calculation, and it's been at least seventeen or eighteen years. The earliest game I played was on a home console controlled by a joystick. Calling it a console might be a stretch, since it didn't even connect to the TV; instead, it had its own tiny screen. I can't even remember what that model was called anymore. As for arcade games, which I wasn't too fond of (mainly because the arcade halls were just too unpleasant), I didn't really get into them much. The earliest arcade game I can recall playing was probably "Street Fighter." So, B.H. wouldn't even recognize the vintage arcade machines listed below, let alone their names and backgrounds. Any arcade experts out there willing to jump in and identify them?
