Arcade games with funny moments

For me, it's the 1989 game Cabal and when you beat a stage, your player runs off into the distance, doing a dorky drunk zombie-like victory dance.  

1:32 is the first of these

Another good one is Wonder Boy In Monster Land: if you knock on a door, the shopkeeper will normally greet you with a cheery "Welcome! What you want?"

If you knock on a pub / bar door, the person there asks "What?"

In the first stage of the arcade game "Ghosts and Goblins," your knight character has to battle his way through a graveyard full of zombies. If you hide behind a grave stone and shoot at the stone enough times, a ghost pops up and temporarily turns you into a frog.

In a later stage, I forget what you have to hit but that ghost will re-appear and turn you into a duck. This would always cause much hilarity amongst my friends when we played "G & G" on Sega Genesis in the dorm, so we'd do it on purpose just to see the duck run around. It inspired a private joke, "Ducks cannot climb ladders!" that some of us still quote to this day. Obviously, alcohol and /or other substances were involved. :D

I remember the frog one.

I crack up in CHASE H.Q. when your partner exclaims "OH NO!" and "OH MAN!" when you slam into civilian vehicles.  And when Nancy the dispatch agent calls and says "you keep farting around like that and time's gonna run out!  Over."

Pac-Man's first intermission. The other two are funny too. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UGQ5sOWuzy8
