Well my advice would be to get two cabs, old arcade stock and have one with a vertical monitor and one with a horizontal one. Forget 50 in 1 game boards and set up a raspberry pie instead running MAME with the hyperspin front end...

That way you will be able to play ALL of the games mentioned in this thread (and 100s more too) but the hyperspin front end will give the selection process of the games a professional touch and you can enjoy all the classics on real machines with proper arcade controls using the correct orientation of the monitors that each game is designed for...

ARCADE HEAVEN !!
