What games would you put in a sports themed room? Don't have to limit it to vids--EM, pinball, slots, table games are all welcome


-Punchout
-4 Player NBA Jam
-Bubble Hockey
-Golden Tee
 
Arcades:

Punch-Out!
NBA Jam
NFL Blitz
NHL Open Ice
Track N' Field
Capcom Bowling
Big Buck Hunting

I've got most of the sports covered. I can't think of a good baseball or soccer game off the top of my head though.

Non arcade:
Air hockey
Pop-a-shot
Foosball
Chexx Bubble hockey
 
If I were to pick up a pitch-and-bat game, it would be EM for sure. Unless, of course, Slugfest came up local/cheap. Some of the later EM p/b games got really elaborate with backglass animation. Some of the 70's WMS ones even had 8 track sound!

If you're feeling video, I think World Series: The Season is top notch.
 
Yeah, sports themed gameroom just screams pitch n bat!
One of my first layouts was sports themed. I did it mainly to encourage people to play the games together, get a little competition going. Worked pretty well. I went with a 4 player NBA Jam, Neo Geo running Baseball stars 2 (better than pro if you ask me) 3 player Super Off road and a Golden Tee golf for the sports games.
