what are your kids favorite classics to play? My oldest is 7 and he's taken a liking to FrontLine, which is kind of a surprise due to the simple graphics and difficult gameplay. While working on games, I hear him constantly dying along with a bunch of grenades, but he keeps at it. Don't think he's reached a tank yet. He also likes smashtv, moon patrol and afterburner deluxe, but the FrontLine is where he's currently deployed :D

What games are your kids and their friends favorite in your collection? What's their age ranges?

My boys are 13,12 and 10 and they all like Mortal kombat IV, cruisin USA, TMNT and they all love Tron. My daughter who is 5 loves Cruisin USA and Area 51. My 12 year olds favorite game however is Phoenix.
 
Dig Dug, DK, Simpsons Pinball Party (most of my family shies away from my Dracula pin), Star Wars Trilogy Arcade, Metal Slug games on the Neo 2 slot. Also Vs SMB. That's what gets the most play in my gameroom as of now. When friends are over the Jam TE gets alot of love too.
 
My youngest daughter who is 9 really likes to play Berzerk, Qix, and D2K. Not sure why she likes the hard games. She can actually do pretty good at Berzerk.
 
My son will be four in a couple months and he loves spending time on the cabs at home. His favorites are The Simpsons, Metal Slug 3, Blazing Star, and Soul Edge.

Just this weekend he fell in love with Cruisn' Exotica too. I guess we'll eventually have to add some sit-down machines to the collection.
 
my three year old loves the vector STAR WARS in the garage.

he finally got to play the star wars cockpit @ cax and loved it.

now i just gotta find me one locally!

here he is "in the zone"

That's ten times more awesome than bullseyeing womp rats from a T-16. Great pics.
 
Great pics Chris :)

My son loves Tron, Gorf, and Donkey Kong 3. I t is so much fun seeing him really into the games, to be honest one of the best parts of being in the hobby.
 
Great pix Chris :D Good to hear he is receiving a proper upbringing! Darn where does the time go? They grow up so fast!! You might need a SW cockpit and a SW Trilogy soon!

thanks man.... the force is strong with my son. i'm currently training him on all things important in life -

star wars, tron, transformers, gijoe, and he-man :)
 
Not classics really... but my 13 year old boy likes Metal Slug 3. I think it's the zombie blood vomit attack he likes.

My 12 year old daughter is a big fan of Puzzle Bobble.
 
17 yo son: Star Wars, Time Pilot & TP 84.
15 yo son: Any fighting game on the Neo Geo 138-1.
8 yo daughter: Megatouch 2K, Frogger (on Mame).
3 yo daughter: anything with buttons, beeps and joysticks.
 
Seems like my kids are being pulled to the new pinball games. I don't know if it is because they're new in the gameroom or what...?

My son: Tron Legacy LE, Star Wars, Williams Multigame
My daughter: Tron Legacy LE, Revenge from Mars, Centipede, Star Wars

PS: That's an awesome picture of your son Chris, standing in the SW cockpit!
 
Since I sold the MAME rig, my boys (5 and 7) are boycotting the game room. When they cave, they'll be playing more PC-10 and Heavy Barrel.
