    Best gift I could have given my 3rd son aka my husband! He’s been looking at these for a while but really wanted a Ms PAC-Man on and this one is perfect! It was relatively easy for him to put together, has a ton of games on it, it’s size-able, and it’s really impressive for the price! Best Buy was by far the most competitively priced, their delivery was faster than expected, over all A+!

    It was tricky to put together, and took some time, but the game play is exactly as I remember from the 80s. I am not sure about some of the games because I really only play Ms Pac Man, Galaga, and Dig Dug, but those are authentic. Once I got the cabinet together good, it looks really sharp too. I haven't connected it to wifi to play on internet, so I haven't checked that out. It's not ambidextrous; it only has a "fire" button on the right side. The coin unit on the front is ornamental (it won't take quarters, so forget making your nerdy friends pay) The game is fantastic, though. If I were still paying a quarter a game, I would have already paid for the thing.

    You can build yourself, save hundred on price, & doesn’t take up much space!! Easy to assemble by myself for the most part. Needed help to assemble one side to square whole top unit together and then take same piece and attach to bottom. Pay close attention to pictures and wooden pegs which slide all the way into pre drilled holes, no wood glue required. Look up my scores as unit comes with WiFi & 12 games i grew up playing, ms. Pac-Man a must… Need code/pattern to get it to super where she flies through the screen?

    Product was perfectly what we had anticipated. The family couldnt be more happier. A lot of reviews online I saw were in regards came with concern over the assembling of this device. However, this was much easier an expected. The only issue we faced was with the wires. Note: make sure the wires are in the proper place before everything is screwed in. Once assembled and ready to play, it worked perfectly. Comes with 12 games, a few we were not familiar with but the family enjoyed trying them out and soon some became their favorites. Another note: To return to the main menu/game selection, simply hold down the 1-Player Button. Other than that, nothing else to say besides how perfect this item came out and definitely worth the purchase. If you are a fan of the classic arcade games, with a few additions that may surprise you, highly recommend pick this up.

    This was something my wife has asked for and i finally got it. It has several games on it that brought back memories. It took us a while to put it together. Somewhere around 2 hrs. Solid cabinet. Did have a screw hole cover that would not stay in place. I would consider getting another unit if i had the space.

    Love the maching and classic form factor. Set up was easy using the instructions. I do wish the sides were 1 solid piece insread of 2, but the art still lined up almost perfectly(very slightly off) The machine did have a few imperfections small chips on corners of the boards. 1 chip is visible and is inside the screen viewing area. One other imperfection is the lite up banner art has a dust dot in the middle of the black, (very annoying i didn't notice till after machine was fully built) but I will just put a dab of black paint there to fix it. Would have gave 5 stars if the imperfections were not there, love the games, controls are good, and price is right.

    was a little intimidated opening the box to see how many pieces/parts had to be put together. Took about 2.5 hours to put it together with some help from my sons. For some of the trickier parts of the build, it was nice to have some helping hands. I wouldn’t suggest trying to put together by yourself. Attractive once it is all put together. Joy stick responsiveness is slow on some of the games, better on others. Brought back a lot of memories of time and $$ spent in Aladdins Castle. I like the deluxe version since it negated the need for a riser. Overall it is about 80% of the experience of a full-size arcade machine for considerably less money.

    Awesome game console. Feels like you are in an arcade with the size and feel. Only drawback to consider is the assembly. It took two of us working together (and fairly handy) about 3 1/2 hours to assemble. (Lots of pieces). It comes in a box about 3ft long by 6 inches wide.

    This Product works great and it arrived quickly. The Assembly was easy and I have been enjoying it since I got it and put it together. Got it as a present and was excited to gift it. Definitely recommended as it works great and brings back the memories. It doesn’t take up too much space so it fit well in the room.

    The instructions were a little hard to follow at times, but once assembled, it works great! The instructions don't show which side is supposed to be up or down, etc. so that made building it a little tricky. The games work great, and aside from the control stick being slightly slower than you would expect it to be, we haven't had any issues with it.

    Got this for my wife for Mother's Day. She absolutely loves it!!!! It takes a little time to assemble, and I'm the guy folks call to put stuff together so figure a good hour to get it all set up. It is really cool and plays just like the original game. Wife and daughter are always dueling Galaga or Ms. Pacman. This is a homerun!!!!
