Bubbles, Defender, Joust, Robotron, Splat, Stargate.

No brainer...

Defender/ Stargate (essentially the same damn game)
Robotron
Joust
Bubbles
Splat

EDIT: it should be noted, that if Stargate weren't such a copy of Defender (sporting just a few changes) it would be on the bottom of my list). So, it is really tough to be looked at as an entire, separate entity on this list.

I suck at defender and have probably dumped $2.50 into it my entire life. Guys who are good say defender and stargate are completely different games. I haven't played either enough to know.

robotron
bubbles
joust
defender/stargate
splat (not sure I've played it)
 
Robotron

Why isn't Blaster or Sinistar included in this list?

What can I say? I love Joust. :) I think Robotron is great, but I suck at it. Defender/Stargate kick my ass too. I don't think I've ever played Splat.
 
Robotron
Joust
Defender
Stargate
Bubbles
Splat

The last two hold no memories for me. The others I played "Back in the day". Also, I think that Robotron is the best video game in history. Ever. And then some!

Where is Sinistar in this poll?


Yes, Defender and Stargate are very similar. Kind of has to be, since one is the sequel to the other. However, Stargate is about more than just flying around rescuing humanoids. There are more enemy types, the Inviso feature and the Stargate itself. Defender is a great game and all but I used to have a Stargate and I enjoyed it more.
 
1) Robotron
2) Joust
3) Bubbles
4) Defender/Stargate
5) Splat

Robotron is awesome 1 player game. Best use of 8 bit graphics in a high action game
Joust is great 2 player game.
Bubbles is unique and even though I never played it in the 80's, 25 years later I did and it's really different.
Defender/Stargate look very cool, but are WAY too hard.
Splat just done care for it.
 
My first place vote goes to Joust! A very cool game that two people can play at the same time. I'll never forget when I first learned that you could kill the other player. It turned into quite the grudge match after that. Number two goes to Defender. Great game with terrific sound. Unfortunately I did and still do suck at it. Number three goes to Bubbles. The simple one joystick movement made it easy so that everyone understood it, but was still hard to control and a difficult game. A bonus for Bubbles is that girls liked it! My number four is Robotron. Great game and I enjoyed the two joystick control, but the graphics were always disappointing to me. Stargate & Splat tie for last. Stargate is just Defender again, and I don't recall Splat so it must not have been that great.

1. Joust
2. Defender
3. Bubbles
4. Robotron
Tie 5. Stargate & Splat
