Centipede (1981)

Today is the splendid arcade classic from Arkansas' own Dona Bailey! Centipede by Atari has such an original look and feel that it easily stands out from so many games at the arcades of old. Good arcades are hard to find these days, but if you can find this cabinet in good condition, it's absolutely worth the time!
