I know people are split on this, but from my perspective, Joust is and will always be better than Balloon Fight.

Notably, the NES port of Joust was programmed by future Nintendo president Satoru Iwata. The game was developed in two months, for release in September 1983, but was ultimately shelved. With his Joust seemingly not happening, Iwata developed Balloon Fight instead, which saw release in 1985. Eventually, his Joust was also released, in 1987. For what it's worth, I love them both.

Man, loved Balloon Fight. I remember many Saturday nights where me and my sis were allowed on the Micro Genius (bootleg NES with lots of games) for an hour.

Not remotely the same genre, but my vote for perfect arcade game is Time Crisis 2.

I played Glypha, a Joust clone on the Mac.

Apparently now one can emulate a classic Mac in one's Web browser and run it directly.
