Dungeons and Dragons is pretty sweet and complicated for an arcade game.

it's a pretty hard and neat looking game. Short but enjoyable. You can play it with a mame emulator I guess.

Aside from all of the awesome games that have been mentioned all ready I have to pimp: Comix Zone!

Man I loved playing that game! I never had a Genesis, but whenever I'd chill at my friends house, I'd mooch that to the max! The gameplay being set in comic book panels and being able to tear away the paper to find items amazed me back in the day. Warranted, all I had was an Atari 2600 and a NES from 1989-1996, so I was easily amazed at newer videogames.

I've played many beat'em ups, but only one has truly warmed my heart. (aka, liked so much I made boss videos of it)
And that's the Streets of Rage series, or in particular, Streets of Rage 2.
That game had such presentation, especially in many of its bosses.

Blahblahblah (Click to reveal)

For example, the epic rain effect following the shirt ripping bartender Barbon saying "Come ON!"
Or the flying Jet swooshing past you and coming down to begin beating the crap out of you!
Or even perhaps Zamza coming out from the mist and shadows like a stupid ninja!
OR Mr. X commanding Shiva to fight, which leads up to something epic!
OR Mr. X himself, seeing you defeat his #1 henchman, tossing his cigar awesomely, and getting up, READY TO FIGHT! (This was on the Japanese version btw)

Point is I really liked the boss battles

And of course the music.
I liked SOR 3, but the original version though, because the character colors were kind of ugly on the US version, and the story was weird.

Comix Zone was mad awesome too, as stated on the post above me.

Altered Beast

Just cause it was the most hilarious thing ever back in the day. The voice acting was terrible and cheesy, the beast forms were either overpowered or had really retarded flaws, and the bosses felt like something made out of Klik 'n' Play.

little fighters rules but is completely impossible on the highest difficulty levels.

I would have a team made of Firenzes and that big demon guy (using the cheat) and we could never beat that last stage.
