Street Fighter 2 and SF2: CE consumed so many hours of my life it's embarrassing to talk about. I played a bunch of other arcade games, but nothing comes close to approaching the amount of time I spent on SF2.

Definitely not iceman. Ice themed super hero would've made a big impression in my head...

It's Dazzler..

Maybe nobody remembers RBI baseball.

When I was a kid my local arcade had it. It was expensive to play but had a huge folowing. We basically had a "league". I would stay for hours to watch games and learn; great memories.

I was never great at it, but I made up for it by spending a lot of money on it.

I think I was wrong about the name of the BB game I posted.

I think it might have been Vs. baseball.
