Ghosts and Goblins (NES)

https://store.steampowered.com/app/1556690/Capcom_Arcade_StadiumGhosts_n_Goblins/ (arcade)

Not the same, but apparently close.

The NES & arcade versions are very similar in terms of level layout and enemy spawns. There are certainly differences, but I haven’t played the arcade version enough to tell you what those specific differences are.

Planetary Annihilation

I personally enjoyed Total Annihilation, but Planetary Annihilation and some of the later games, like the Spring-based remakes never quite caught me the same way.

    The arcade was the original version. There’s also a really good modern port on the Commodore 64 with a banging soundtrack called “Ghosts n Goblins Arcade”
