    Our old Pac Man game broke and this is an excellent replacement for a game that we though was lost.

    We bought this for my eight-year-old niece and she just loves it! She especially enjoys the Galaga and original Pac Man games. She thinks they are so cool.

    You get Pac-Man and its similar to the old game but if you are expecting the same Pac-Man experience as the original it’s not going to be this one. The movement is slower and not as smooth as the original. Plus a big drawback is the shape of the controller which is quite uncomfortable and big. I wish they could just make an Atari replica controller for it. It is still fun playing some of the old games, so if you’re looking for a low priced option to get a little nostalgia you can have some fun with it.
