I just purchased this last night from Target for $500 w free shipping. Got the NAMCO Pac Man cab last Father's Day as a gift from my wife- (yes, she's awesome!) I shortly after bought the Tempest cab, which I adore, and have been considering Ms Pac Man for a while, as I love it more than standard Pac Man. After some thought, youtube reviews and pricing, I went with this one. Great games, cab looks amazing and 1981 was a good year to be a kid for me! Thanks and can't wait for it to arrive!

It's funny, on other cabs, I thought there were way too man Pac-Man games, but on this one, I kinda wish there were at least one more, specifically Super Pac-Man. This is my only dedicated 4-way joystick cab. In a perfect world, this would have Ms. Pac-Man/Super Pac/Pac-Man, Galaga/Galaga 88/Gaplus, and then 6 other games. But I'm really glad there is a true variety of games to play on this machine. For someone who buys this as their only cab, they can mix it up nicely.

PDubs, You know what's crazy? Arcade1up's Partycades are proving to be a much better value than their 3/4 Scales this year. I got the Ms. Pac-Man, and seriously considering getting the Galaga. If I got both, that's 20 games with only a couple duplicates across, definitely more than a Class of 81 or my Namco Legacy. Same great controls and same great monitors for around $400. And as I peeped before, THAT GORGEOUS light up marquee, THE BEST looking one Arcade1up has ever produced! You can even snag your fav, Super Pac-Man, and get the booties back in a smaller form factor :) The washed out marquee aside though, I'm glad you're liking the Class of 81 :) Oh, and I'll take Rolling Thunder over an unlockable Pac-Man any day :) vgv

It honestly should've been the same price as the Namco Legacy ($450 USD) or max price at $500 USD when the only difference from the Namco Legacy aside from the games is the light up deck and leaderboards.

Sorry, I own three Arcade 1UP machines and this is the worst one I've ever bought and really the only one I've been disappointed in. The control input is extremely laggy and even after a replacement joystick from Arcade 1UP it's still not working. And yes, it's fully up to date. They keep closing my support tickets and telling me that the devs are aware of the issue but don't have an ETR. It's not an issue with the controller, it's the speed of the emulation. And I don't know what they're going to do to fix it. It makes twitch games where fast reaction time is a must almost impossible to play. You can see a visible lag between me moving the stick and the character moving on screen. Fast play Ms. Pac Man is impossible to play with this control input delay and Galaga is very difficult. Very disappointed and I do not recommend buying this machine unless you try it first and are okay with the speed of the input. I have played these games all through my childhood in the arcade so I know how fast the controls should respond, and this machine does not do it right. I feel like without a fix for this lag I kind of got ripped off. I'm glad other people are happy with theirs but it's virtually unplayable for me - maybe there's something going on with my particular cabinet. A few other people on reddit have reported the same issue, but others either don't have it or don't notice it. Good selection of games but it's very difficult to play with the input lag. 4/10.
@RedSiegfried2 жыл бұрын
Follow up on this: over the weekend I tried replacing the stick with a Zippy stick I had laying around and that seemed to improve the responsiveness but it still wasn't quite right. I still missed a lot of turns. It's kind of hard to describe unless you actually have played the original game and the Arcade1UP versions. I have a replacement Happ stick on order that is specifically made for playing Ms. Pac Man and recommended as a replacement for the original Arcade1UP stick that got some good reviews, so when that comes I'll install that and see how it goes!
@RedSiegfried2 жыл бұрын
Another followup: installing the Happ joystick definitely helped make the game more playable. There is still some lag in the control response, especially noticeable in Galaga, but it's no longer a physical issue with the joystick. It takes Ms. Pac Man (fast or slow mode) from virtually unplayable to not bad. Of course, there are other issues like the angle of the screen and the size/weight of the cabinet, but you know you're going to have that going into it, and I can deal with those. I would highly recommend replacing the stock joystick with a Happ stick made for Ms. Pac Man, you'll be glad you did.
