Metal Slug X: Originally released
in 1998, this arcade classic is 25 years old! Capt. Marco Rossi and his buddies are awesome characters and this one has aged finer than wine. Play it today!

Writer’s Note: Seems easy, right? It is not!
Continental Circus: Taito’s 1987 arcade release isn’t as popular as it should be, but that doesn’t mean you can’t have a blast with it!
Challenge: Pole Position: The
only challenge in this forgotten
gem is to pull ahead and see how many points you can earn without running out of time! Remember, you need to qualify to progress to the next round.
Pinball Fantasies: Partyland: Yes, AntStream Arcade even has pinball games! The 1992 Digital Illusions release was a blast when the original released; it’s a great video game representation of the pinball experience.
Challenge: Party Leader: How high of a score can you rack up with just one ball? Sure, this is pretty straight ahead, but you haven’t played a pinball game quite like this.
Manic Miner: A classic on the ZX Spectrum, Manic Miner is alive and well in all its awesomeness on the AntStream Arcade.
Celebrating its 40th anniversary this year, it’s a must-play for any platformer fan that wants to see the origins of the genre.
Challenge: Miner Mania: This may be the most fun challenge on this list! You have a lot to get through before you’re off the clock! Complete all six levels as fast as possible with infinite lives. If you’re a hardcore retro gamer, you have to try this!
