The Lode Runners

[MegaDrive20XX]

Gyromites?

Bonaza Bros?

Sunset Riders?

Buster Bros?

Tempest

Duck Hunters!

Bubble Bobble (would sound odd, but it would fool people by the time they heard your lyrics)

Don't know if this has been mentioned, but if you're metal-ish, twisted metal would be great.

[sickdrummer420]

i actually almost named my band 'Far Cry' which was going to be a metal band name. sounded kinda cool we thought, but then we decided not to use it.

[Trevor Belmont]

Can't go wrong with the name Contra in my eyes. Although I think it means something like "against" in Spanish, so there's a possibility a band already took that name.

[The Plucky Little Ninja]

K.C.'s Crazy Chase

Keiko's Flying Squadron :D

The Goombas

The Dance Dance Revolution ^^;

Probably can't go wrong with a classic arcade title, there's lots of suggestions out there already. But Princess Tomato in the Salad Kingdom could be fun... :)

[Jed]

I second Clash at Demonhead. I loved that game.

Marble Madness and Arkanoid also sound cool.

[Dahne]

The Ocelettes.

[Muscelli]

the king of fighters Dream Match 1999

or Madden 2002

[Captain Wrong]

Mary-Kate and Ashley's Pocket Planner. If that doesn't suggest rock, I don't know what does.

[hezeuschrist]

Why not just name the band Copyright Infringement?

[Damaramu]

I recommend:

Shining and The Holy Arks
The Shoryukens


A good name for your first album:

A MAGICAL THUNDER LEARNED THE SECRET

[SirDrexl]

Guitar Freaks
Primal Rage
Wolfenstein
Grim Fandango

[-hellvin-]
