Racing (Arcade-Style)

Arcade games are games with a gameplay style similar to those found in coin-operated video games. Styles include "unique" gameplay ideas such as Pac-Man and Donkey Kong, through racing and flight games that forgo real-world physics and settings for "over the top" action. This is a very diverse genre that spans most anything that has ever been found in a coin-op cabinet.
