Loving my battle with Donkey Kong, just wondering what other classic arcade games are actively played? Preferably, I'd like games that aren't heavily patterned like Pac-Man (one thing I love about DK is that it can always surprise me with its randomness), haven't achieved a perfect score, and aren't only tests of endurance (like easy games that are reserved for marathons).

Thank you in advance, everyone!

Mario Bros.

Odds are you can see someone playing it on any given day on one of the following channels (though some of them stream very rarely at all, and not usually Mario):

Ross Benziger
Stephen Boyer
Corey Chambers
Ben Falls
Steve Kleisath (Current WR holder for Singles No POW and 2nd all-time arcade score for Singles POW, streams often)
Chris Mansfield
Perry Rodgers
George Strain
Tom Votava (Current WR holder for Singles POW)
