I did have an interesting experience with Robotron. I'd never played it at the arcades and thus never got the dual joystick part of it. Then, much, much, later, I got a dual X-Arcade (I need to take that thing out of mothballs!!) and fired up Robotron. It was definitely a totally different game with the two sticks. It takes special coordination to handle it. Battlezone and other tank games were also much easier (or least different) with the setup.
I could see lumping Robotron in with the Defender chapter if it could be done easily.
