My friend has the original Pac-Man game!!
I like playing it at times but he has it put away at the moment.
I even had it at my house for a while.
All works-what a great game.
My favorite was Turbo- the driving game.
I went to the mall back in the late 70's or around 1980' when it came out and I was always #1 on that game!!
I would come in and wipe out ther high scorer every time-I think I hit about 2 million points once!! i was driving on roads that no one had seen before!!
Games like these old ones are cool,my friend even has 2 Kiss Pinball machines!
Have a great weekend-GB.

I just watched "King of Kong" a month ago. It was very interesting.

I have a full-size arcade game that plays 26 games including all the Pac-Mans and Donkey Kong, Galaga etc. It is fun to play some of those old-school games. I just can't get into new games that take so long to play, with hidden codes and "cheats". I play for a diversion, not to create an alternate reality that requires the dedication of a part-time job. Some of these new "gamers" will never move out of their parents basement.
