Arcade Games List

[ View Trivia ] [ View all Platforms ]

Games documented under the Arcade platform aren't so much released on a unified platform, but often custom-built standalone games. What Arcade games have in common is that they are meant to be played in a public space. The games are released as robust self-contained units containing both the screen, input (buttons, joysticks, etc.) and internal hard- and software to make it all work. Traditionally Arcade machines are coin-operated, but they can also be free of charge in public exhibitions or use other payment methods to initiate a game.

Some prolific manufacturers of Arcade games did develop their own re-usable hardware. These sub-platforms are documented as attributes rather than individual platforms. See for example: Sega NAOMI.

MobyGames only documents Arcade games that use circuits and computers as hardware to run the game. Games that are primarily electromechanical in nature are not documented by MobyGames.

There are 3,322 video games on Arcade. They were released between the years 1950 and 2025. 16,090 people from 985 developers and publishers are credited with these titles!

There are 122 Arcade games released in the year 1988.
