What games are natural 2 player games for a cocktail cabinet? I can
only think of the old Atari Xs and Os Football game and Warlords.
Feel free to mention games that weren't originally made in a cocktail
format but would work.

space invaders 2
space laser
tetris(1 side of the screen flips)
mr and mrs pacman(2 player hack)
track and field
pong
tank
tekkan world cup, there's probably some other soccer and football games that would work well too.

Demolition Derby and others. Quick question, is the Atari Football any good? (note, I like that classic football II mattel game.)

Joust.

Has anyone ever seen the Joust pinball cocktail? I've never seen anything else like it. It's about as big as a standard cocktail table with a player on each side controlling their own set of flippers.

Yep, there were only 500 regular joust cocktails made according to the midway arcade treasures.

That joust pinball sounds intresting, any pictures of it anywhere to get an idea of what it is like.

Joust seems like it would only work as a side by side game. How would
it work with one player viewing it upside down?

On the video history of the midway arcade treasures it says that it is one of the only cocktails that had the two players sit side by side instaid of on either side, so it played just like regular joust would.
