Phoenix on the Atari 2600. I loved that game, actually I still play it from time to time and still think it's great.

We moved to a new town when I was 13 at the beginning of summer and for three months I was the new kid in town living in the suburb with no friends ( sob

). I used to go to the supermarket where they had 2600s on display and there would be a few kids queueing to play. By the end of the summer I was so good that once I got the joystick it was my turn almost indefinitely... lol ... that didn't help much with making friends

There were also some amazing arcade ports on the turbo engine. However I only discovered those later through emulation.

Not sure which would be the biggest letdown. Usually on consoles I preferred sports games and platformers while in the arcade I'd go for shooters. So there wasn't much overlap for me.
