Mine is the Combat cartridge. Besides loving to play the original Tank arcade game, Combat was the basis for Time Pilot. What a great upgrade from the:

By the way, I could probably kick your ass in Atari 2600 Combat...

Just sayin'...

My favorite would probably be Solaris. Not sure how it relates to my arcade likes though, since the only similar title I can think of is Blaster.

However my love of Atari 2600 Berzerk led to a love of the arcade version as well.
 
I gained an appreciation for combat sometime years after it first came out.

I really liked kaboom, and decathlon.
 
Pac-Man.... because... uhh..............

It's a game? I like it, although I prefer the Pac-Man 4K homebrew, Hack-em and Ms. Hack.
 
Pac-Man is what drove my arcade obsession and it's my least favorite 2600 cart. Why?, because it was such a craptastic port of a game it drove me to want to own the real games. I still spent many hours playing it. Combat I spent tons of time playing as well, but it was great.
