Rollergames is a coin-operated arcade game by Konami, made in 1990, and based on the television show of the same name. Score values are cut in half from the real show (and rounded up if needed), and feature only four 99-second cycles instead of 45-second cycles within four 6-minute periods. The players control the two jetters. After referee Don Lastra blows his whistle to begin the cycle, the first lap leads the jetters to the Wall of Death (the heavily banked curve of the jetwave). They get one point for getting three steps in the between the two red lines and three points for getting above the top line. On the jet jump, they get three points for landing beyond the 12-foot marker and one point for landing in front of the line. The rest of the cycle awards one point passing or fighting off opposing blockers (who come back to haunt the jetters afterwards) and three points for lapping or fighting off the opposing jetter. The team with the most points wins. While it doesn't affect the score of the game (only awardiAtomic Point

An arcade football/soccer game. The game scrolls horizontally at a slight angle, and recreates the coin-op's close-up zoom effect after a player scores. Only a small area of the pitch is on screen at a time, but there is a scanner to show the whole pitch. Although the game has a referee, he often loses attention, and these moments give you a chance to foul, punch or side-swipe opposition players. One and two player options are included.Vandyke

It is the future and motorcycle cops now use air bikes to patrol the streets and catch criminals. You are one cop, and over various missions you are to chase after various criminals and catch them within a time limit. Once all the criminals are caught, you then have to smash into the gang leader within a new time limit, decreasing his energy bar until it is empty. The gameplay of this title is similar to Chase H.Q.. Be careful, as the leader has a weapon and when hit slows you down.Cyber Tank

Cyber Tank is a would-be dual screen on-rails shooter from Coreland. Due to poor feedback during the location test phase of development, the game was not put into further production. Luckily, the board from the lone existing arcade cabinet was lent to MAME developers, and the game can now be played by a much wider audience. Game preservation!Punk Shot

Punk Shot
1990
Punk Shot takes up to four players to downtown NYC for some two-on-two street basketball, no referee, no rules. The opposing two-man teams face off for a match played in four quarters (2 to 5 minutes each), on improvised courts in 3 different locations: the alley, the park, and the harbor. Naturally, it ain't just about being cool and shooting some b-ball outside of the school: on each side you have a couple of guys who are up to no good, with a constant enthusiasm for making trouble in the neighborhood. As such, Punk Shot joyfully turns basketball into a full-contact sport - heads will be bashed, noses punched, and private parts kicked. To top it off, each court features an assortment of environmental hazards, from slippery banana peels and having your butt set on fire, to the park dogs and their special taste for pants.Sonic Blast Man

A number of power-ups also appear at regular intervals to aid Nemo in his quest through seven tough stages.Bloxeed

However, in 1997, using new weapons designed in secrecy, the Middle Eastern country of Rabu threatened to destroy this fragile peace. Rabu's proported goal is to purge the world of sin and force a new morality, with her allies. Rabu quickly claimed the Middle East, then spread into both southern Asia and parts of Europe.

If Rabu is allowed to use Japan's manufacturing facilities, there will be no end to the nightmare. Hoping to protect world peace, the USS Carl Vinson (CVN-70) heads out to the sea.Majestic Twelve: The Space Invaders Part IV
