Everyone loves knowing the processors that run their games. The Neo Geo using the 68000 and Z80.
The much older black and white videogames like Pong did not use a microprocessor in any form.
Now the question is: name the only COLOR arcade game that did not use a microprocessor in any form. NOTE that this game was released and popular for its time.
(the answer is NOT a Cinematronics game. Even though their vector games did not have a microprocessor, the circuit was actually a baby PDP-11 that ran microcode. The game for my trivia question was all discrete logic gates and ROMS for screen graphics. )
As an incentive to winning this one, I will give the winner of this question my haunted house CD I composed, Dark Matter. I will either send you if you email me your address or I will have my distributors send you one.
Good luck with this one, gang!
