I like this machine. I remember when I first learned about the Easter eggs and ask my dad to take me to our local Dave & Buster's in Maryland. We get there and I show him how to play Pac-Man and Speedy Miss Pac-Man and he was pretty amazed at it. I can also remember when we went to a local arcade which was pretty small but still a great place and they have the option where you could do this thing called open play for a few bucks for person. So I showed one of the workers at that place the Easter eggs on that machine and I think he was pretty surprised.
Just found one at my local shopping mall! I really dig it, it was in great shape and the controls felt nice. Thanks for making this video, it was great to learn about the ins and outs of the cab!
@@LyonsArcade I have a question for you and didnt see any social media accounts I could ask you on so I'll ask here. Been playing the cab I found at my local mall for a few months now and their High Score on Galaga is all jumbled. No matter what score I get, the text under HIGH SCORE is just jumbled graphics and Im not sure why. The attendants dont know why and really dont care but I wanted to ask if you had an idea as to what might be going on.
Also they had it on the navigator of the seas :) Also it has a secret code you can enter to play original Pacman which is ⬆️⬆️⬆️⬇️⬇️⬇️⬅️➡️⬅️➡️⬅️ When you insert a coin you will be on the game select menu and if you enter the code with the joy stick you should hear a bell sound and see pinky on screen, then press the ms. pac-man button and there you go.
I played one of these in a small arcade at a pizza restaurant, back in the mid 2000s. Arcade1up just released a home, 3/4 scale version of full sized cabinet. You can almost crash it, but after halting for a second, it goes back to normal operation, so looks like that bug was fixed for that.
I've seen the regular cabinet for this a whopping 1 time, the 25 inch monitor, we have two Buffalo Wild Wings in my area, one of them had this machine in it. There's a laundromat as well here that has an original Ms. Pac-Man cabinet, sadly the monitor is going out on the thing, everything onscreen is absolutely blurry, the guy who owns the laundromat doesn't seem to give a shit about getting it fixed (this laundromat once had a James Bond pinball machine, Yie Ar Kung Fu, and Donkey Kong, and a few other games as well, all are gone save for the Missus), and at some point the machine will likely die, and he'll likely just chuck it out the door. Hopefully before that comes, someone buys the thing off of him, gives it a good home, and restores the machine back to it's normal glory.
Loved the Fast mod. (slow is boring and harder)...been wanting one for awhile..hopefully will come across one. I see they go for over a grand in good shape/working.
Was curious if this 20th had the Fast Mod or not. or both? Awesome review..didn't know you could change things. Number of fighters, Great. I hope to pick one of these up some day
It had a dedicated little board that ran it, but really I don't know if you can consider it emulation or not. Usually when people say Emulation they're talking about software, this is an official release running on official hardware but it's nothing like the original hardware....
Hey there Joe, there was a song that would play on a machine at my work when the machine was not in use after awhile, does your machine do the same? If so any way you could record it and send it to me? Would greatly appreciate it!!
I don't have this particular game anymore, sorry. As far as I know there is no attract music on Ms. Pac-Man or Galaga though so maybe it was another game?
@@LyonsArcade Thank you for the fast reply!! I know for sure it had pac man and Galaga, I can’t say for sure that it was a 20th anniversary edition. I’m not well versed in the arcade games, but I’m on the quest to find the song, been an ear worm for years!! Thank you for your efforts none the less.
Thank you for the video! I'm definitely considering getting one. The one I'm looking at is without a coin door. I've thought about installing a fake coin door on it so that I would have easy access to the test button. But I'm wondering if I should just leave it as it is.
@@LyonsArcade It's a nice little amusement park, with what seems to me like an unusually large number of arcades for its size. One of them has a pretty large pinball collection!
I just picked up one of these Cabaret and I plug it up and keep getting the dip switch stuck message it some times plays then crashes to this screen is it my board maybee I'll turn it off and back on cause I just unplug it when am fin useing it
Question for you: do you know where the menu switch is for one of these that doesn't have a real coin door? The one we have is a sticker and we want to reset the high score.
I believe they added a button on the back near where the power cord goes in, do you have a volume knob barely sticking out of the back of the game down low? If not you may have to take the back door off then look down in the bottom of the cabinet just behind the bottom panel.
No fucking way! The fake coin door! It's no Wonder Arcade 1up made these stupid fake coin doors as pictures with some cabs. I wonder how many people even know that is an actual real world Arcade... Decision and not something A1up just pulled out of their ass. Cool! .... Still lame, but A1up gains more points for attempting to bring the real arcade experience home with upgradable compromises.
@@kathijordan2451 Sorry but I'm not part of the user base who keeps stock buttons or speakers. So outside of the controls and speakers on a Stock Cab, no. It isn't Crap. On my class of 81 I use a Logitech z533 set of Speakers. I choose to go with a Sanwa JLF with D44X Microswitches but I plan to Experiment with the actual Happ Reunion 20th Anniversary Stick. For the buttons I use IL Concave buttons with the two action buttons using Rollie Leaf Switches. Unfortunately for the Home Arcade Community it's easy to sit on your ass and talk shit, whilst it being so hard to research controls and learn how to upgrade and maintain them. Even when people do upgrade, they upgrade to crap offered by DIY Retro Arcade and crap 'Gold Leaf Switches' which are nothing more than Biolane Chinese clone hybird.
I swear, this is one of the most common arcade machines I’ve ever come across
It definitely is!
I've seen a working Ms. Pac-Man Galaga Cabaret Reunion Arcade Cabinet at the Bowling Alley somewhere in Georgia, and surprisingly, it still works.
Probably still makes good money, too!

'Why would they do us like that'
LMFAO!!!!

These are up for Pre-Order on Arcade 1up!
I remembered seeing this in the arcades in Disney world in the hotel arcades. Good times back in October 2009 :-)
I wonder if they've still got the big arcades down there? Around the time they did Wreck it Ralph they still had them.
Also they had it on the navigator of the seas :)

I wonder if they’ll make another anniversary cabinet on Pac-Man’s 40th anniversary
They ought to! It'll probably have an LCD screen this time.
Gotta come visit you guys soon!
Swing by anytime Terry, drag your brother with you too :)
Loved the Fast mod. (slow is boring and harder)...been wanting one for awhile..hopefully will come across one. I see they go for over a grand in good shape/working.
They're very fun, game never really gets old....
Would love one of these!
Great video as always!
Thanks Sillysausage!
I have one ;)
I'm buying one for $1500 after shipping and coming with dollar bill reader
It's a fun game!
Thanks!

Yes you can change it, good luck!
Did this machine use emulation at the time or was the program native to the chips they used?
It had a dedicated little board that ran it, but really I don't know if you can consider it emulation or not. Usually when people say Emulation they're talking about software, this is an official release running on official hardware but it's nothing like the original hardware....
the CPU it runs on is backwards compatible with Z80 so kinda yes kinda no
Is the turbo pac man setting reset after its unplugged?
No it should save the setting

They have the upright at Canobie Lake, and it's in much better shape than their original Galaga.
Canobie Lake, what a name!

There must be some folks in power there that understand what AMUSEMENT means :)
I just picked up one of these Cabaret and I plug it up and keep getting the dip switch stuck message it some times plays then crashes to this screen is it my board maybee I'll turn it off and back on cause I just unplug it when am fin useing it
Sometimes one of the buttons will have a switch going bad to make it do that, It seems to happen during the Galaga attract mode sometimes....
My local pizza hut has this, but they removed the original board and replaced it with an icade with only ms pac man and galaga enabled
Then it's missing a whole game because Pac-Man should also be on here along with fast Ms. Pac-Man and fast shooting Galaga
@@fruitpun6h It's so easy to turn that game back on as well...
@@hellacia8151 the way it's only like $40 to get the actual PCB
Question for you: do you know where the menu switch is for one of these that doesn't have a real coin door? The one we have is a sticker and we want to reset the high score.
I believe they added a button on the back near where the power cord goes in, do you have a volume knob barely sticking out of the back of the game down low? If not you may have to take the back door off then look down in the bottom of the cabinet just behind the bottom panel.
@@LyonsArcade found it! Thanks
Love it!
Thanks Eric!
16:39 I Memorize This Code
I have the bar top version of this cabinet
How do u turn the continue off
I believe there's a setting in the menu.
Wow🕹️
Crash happens at 13:23
Is it as big as a arcade 1up with a riser 🤔
It is taller than the arcade one ups by a lil
How tall is it I’m curious
Where can I buy this
I have one for sale!
