The skateboarding one is actually more leading than I first thought. He's doing a specific trick, which is also the name of the game. This should help: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Skateboarding_video_games
The knight is about what he's equipped to do.
You're so close on the tiger, but you've got to be a little more concise.

is an arcade game, where one person steered the front of the truck, and the other the rear.

Ah, that game you've never heard of
Fire Truck
That owl is pissing me off.
Ditto for pie on the far right.
And that clock cut in half.
The golden T.
The book with "R"
The star in the castle
The two dudes holding up...swords? Wands?
The other Tron game
The tiger helicopter
The dude with an eye hanging out
The air balloons
Ugh. I love and hate these games. Love because they're fun but hate because when I figure out the answer, I'm all like "Well, DUH, Nick!"

I'm missing more than I thought.
What the hell is the donkey playing bongos?
Huh, apparently there's a game called Balloon Fight.

1. Owl with the crown
2. Running rock
3. Snake in a bowl
4. Bull and R on a page in a book
5. Guy with a star shirt in the lower left corner
[STRIKE]6. Tron guy on a roof[/STRIKE] Wait, this is apparently Discs of Tron.

It's a golf game. Once you know that, it should be easy to figure out the two letters you're missing.
You've got some something "in the" way of the answer.
The guys in the balloons have guns, but the game doesn't have any guns. There are balloons in the game, though. It's a Nintendo game, with gameplay very similar to the game with the silver knight in the upper right of the puzzle.

It's a game about an attack helicopter, and it sounds like it came out for the SNES
The guy is Bill Gates, and I'm not sure if the game is named after a movie or if it's just a coincidence it shares it's name with that film that spawned 3 spin-off TV series.

What???? You've got to be kidding me. Since when are rams depicted as being red with black horns?

Hmm, I don't know this one then, never had a SNES.
Nope, still don't know it, and even google isn't helping.

Oh, well... I think about a quarter of all games for the Super Nintendo had "Super" in their title, and that's what I meant.

I ended up having to google those, just to satisfy my curiosity.
The owl one is a golf arcade game, and I've never connected an owl to this golf term in my mind. Too grand a bird for the diminutive.
The running rock is a game I've heard of, but never played. I even had to look it up to see what it is. It's had a lot of sequels though, and even been released on the iPhone, PSP, DS and XBLA. Anyway, it's name is <synonym for large rock> <synonym for a run>, and sounds like an exclamation of disbelief.
For the car, it's pointing to a PART of the car, not the car itself.
For the Star, that's the founder of Microsoft. The name of the game was also the name of an AWESOME movie.
Still can't get the tiger helicopter one. Tried "Tiger Helo" but it's not working.
Ditto on the cut out dude on the road.
