Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - GREAT GAME FOR RETRO FANS
If you grew up in the 80s, this is a must-have. Easy to hook up, compact for traveling, simple operation. Only reason I didn't give it five stars is that it doesn't have Galaga, the greatest video game ever, and the reset button is awkwardly placed on the console, making it easy to accidentally reset in mid-game. Even so, it's a great product, especially for the cost.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - namco tv game
I have had this game in the past and it went up. I tried to buy it again from a seller on Amazon.com. Although Amazon.com is very reliable and cooperative, the seller that I tried to buy from is definitely not. I had to get a refund through Amazon.



Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - It's not the same, you won't relive your past
The version of Pac Man on this little unit isn't the good one you might remember. If you'll hark back to the Pat Benatar days, you'll recall there was a "fake Pac Man" that was released in the 80s. (The Pac Man itself was a little too round, the sound was off...something was amiss, yet many didn't notice. If you were a true afficianado, you noticed). Well, this fake one is the one that's shipped with this unit. And it's just as disappointing as it used to be. It's not the real pac man.

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Revival of my Inner 80s Geek
I fondly remember the video game arcades from my youth. Standing in front of those tall machines, staring at the monitors as Pac-Man™ gobbles his way around a maze of dots being chased by Blinky, Inky, Pinky and Clyde, shoving quarter after quarter into the narrow slot with the hope of one day breaking the high score. I must have spent at least $1,000 or more on those games while my brain cells slowly burned away in the electric blue glow. Ah, those were the days.

Imagine my surprise ... Read More



Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - Broke after 2 days!!!
Just got this for Christmas. The kids have been playing with it for the last two days and now the picture is messed up. It has all sorts of noise on it and you can't even see what you are doing. Total play time before it broke was probably about 12 hours. Will be trying to get a replacement since the kids love it. Hopefully, that one will last longer.
