Arcade games that were apparently super popular but you only saw once at an arcade, if ever.

[Billy Beans]

I can't recall many arcade games off the top of my head that I haven't seen in the wild or only once . Being an Army brat, and active duty in the 80s, I got to visit a lot of arcades, sub shops, laundromats, convenience stores etc... all over the world.

 

I have a short list of games I've only seen at one place:

 

At a pool hall/arcade in my hometown in Maine they had Space Firebird, Wacko, Timber, Space Panic, Cliffhanger, and Bubbles.

 

Weirs Beach in NH in the 80s, they had Empire Strikes Back, Super Zaxxon, Granny and the Gators, and Crazy Climber.

 

An arcade called "Herb's Arcade" in Killeen, Texas back in the 80s, they had Blaster, Mystic Marathon (amazing underrated game), Mappy, I Robot, and Major Havoc.
