It's hard to get achievements on classic arcade games since they were designed to be super hard quarter munchers. I'm proud that I got all the achievements on Dig Dug and Pac-Man Championship Edtion on the 360.
I never was good at 720 or APB. I always thought it was interesting that Championship Sprint was based on an old black and white Atari game from the 70's. I stink at Defender, but I do like the Atari 2600 version, surprisingly. I've always been good at that one, even as a little kid. Gauntlet was huge back in the day. I never got to play it right away because all the bigger kids kept hogging it. First time I got to play it was when some really nice teenagers let me join in. I didn't know about Joust 2 until I saw it on one of the collections. Had I seen it in arcades back in the day, I would've freaked out. Love that game. I have a lot of good memories playing Rampage with my brothers, especially the newer ones. As a kid, I was always scared of Sinistar. I would try to walk as far away from the machine as possible in arcades. Smash TV was a 90s favorite for me and my friends. I think it's interesting it was made by the same guy who made Defender and Robotron.
