Asks for a real cabinet around itReviewed by Martiniman, 2010-02-14
First the software. The unit is great is this respect. The games
are true to the originals, and the front end to choose the 12 games
is made in a nice matching style. Great thing is this games stores
highscores, where most original cabinets lost these when the games
were powered off. One of the best ways to gain a legal working PCB
with the (almost) original arcade games!
Then the hardware. The toy is a great upgrade from the first pacman
and ms pacman toy. The stick is more solid and the buttons look
real. But there is one big mistake. The joystick must be on the
left, and the fire buttons on the right! And those buttons are too
stiff. So forget beating any Galaga high score on this. Firing the
bullets will kill your left arm. It needs right arm muscles and
good training to score reasonable. So the best thing to do with
this toy is buy a real arcade joystick, 3 real arcade buttons,
built yourself a nice stand up arcade cabinet, grab an old TV and
put the things together with this toys PCB in the cab. Then this
toy really becomes legendary!
Addictive!!!Reviewed by Romon E. Dubose, 2010-02-13
This plug and play game contains several other pacman games along with other classic spaceship games, etc. Very, very addictive and provides hours of good, old-fashioned, non-violent play. The only problem I have is that the pacman board doesn't change. For this reason you might want to look for a Ms. pacman game to have a greater variety (of boards/levels).
Retro Pac Man a hit at our house!Reviewed by D. Dawson, 2010-02-01
The Retro Arcade PacMan is more difficult than the arcade version. Or, my reflexes are not quiet as good! But, I have spent hours on this game, and it is very fun. There are also other games, like a Space Invader type, which is also enjoyable to play. Because it was purchased before the holiday, the price was more than can be purchased at another time of the year. I just found that it was out of stock at those stores.
Nostalgia LostReviewed by Gawain789, 2010-01-01
Although the makers took care to make it look and feel authentic, the joy stick's poor response time hampers the Pac Man games. It's frustrating-- even absurd-- especially with regards to quick escapes and turning corners. Since Dig Dug moves around slowly, game play is more realistic and enjoyable.
Excellent game for anyone!Reviewed by Daniel T. Chavez, 2009-12-30
This is an awesome game. I was going to buy a used Pacman cocktail table but thought I would be better off buying this. Boy was I right. My girlfriend and I love playing Pacman ( I bought this for her as a Christmas Gift) and when she opened it she told me, "I think you just bought this for yourself!" We played it all night. I don't really care too much for the other games (they are alright) but I didn't buy it for the others. So would I recommend this game..... YES I WOULD DC&LM
