Many PC games are "cabinet friendly." This mean they will work well in a cabinet environment. Such games have remappable keys, menu navigation via joystick, and may need a trackball to navigate too. You can find a list of these games here.

There are also collections and remakes of arcade games from Williams, Namco, Midway, and Atari.

Also, if you purchase a Hanaho Hotrod Joystick it will come with Capcom Coin-op Classics.

Late 1990s and early 2000s Hasboro Interactive, Inc. released several remakes, including Frogger, Centipeded, Warlords, and Combat. I could not find product links on Hasboro's or Atari's website. You can find these games on Amazon.com.
