  1. The Ultimate Arcade Game Compendium

  2. If a reader has watched Back to the Future Part III, which is set in 1885, then they will have seen what arcades were like back then. In the past, the most exciting entertainment options were shooting galleries, ball toss games, fortunetellers, and automatons that played music. The first coin-operated devices appeared in the 1920s, and by the 1930s, wooden pinball machines had joined the market. The birth of the entertainment arcade saw the introduction of games like skeeball, basketball attractions, and other tests of manual dexterity. While these early versions of arcades lacked the electrical light and sound presentations that became commonplace, there was no denying that they were the contemporary precursors of the genre.

  3. Skee-Ball, which was created in 1909, has been around for more than a century, and although the title of "the original arcade game" is still up for debate, it can't be denied that it has been around for quite a long. Shooting galleries have been around longer than organized sports. Grand Prix, Duck Hunt, and Periscope were among the titles that started a trend towards entirely electronic, "real" arcade games.

  4. Arcade Prize Vending Machinesdeveloped from a tiny subset of consumer electronics entertainment towards the end of the 1970s and became a separate business. Atari's Breakout, which gave rise to many clones and was one of the most-played games of its time, was undoubtedly one of the most significant games of this period. First-person viewpoint games like Road Race and Night Driver continued to develop. Still, no one could have predicted the acceleration that would propel arcades into what is now referred to as the Golden Age of gaming.
