the side art looks like a derivative of Dig Dug.  The cabinet looks custom?

Man you guys are quick! Well done.

Ya it is custom from somewhere.  There is a company  making all these cabs 3/4 size with proper licences. This is possibly one of theirs.  Someone on twitter posted it and asked which game this was.

Still completely unconfirmed that this will be one of their cabs but thanks for the help guys!!

That is garbage, made by someone who knows absolutely nothing about arcade games at all. If you see something like that run far away from it and report it to Namco. No one who respects games would ever make that.

It looks like someone with brain damage tried to draw a Ms Pac-Man from memory and use an X-arcade on it at the same time.

Also, scaling down cabinets is what idiots do. Cabinets are a certain size for a reason. They are not a cake or a bouncy ball that can just be any size. The control panel has to be at the proper height to use for one application, either when standing or when sitting, and then the control panel, display and angle have to be usable from that. Scaling a cabinet size NEVER accomplishes that. That is why cabaret and mini cabinets were different designs from upright cabinets and not just a scaled down version.

Acceptance of Zen philosophy is marred slightly by the nagging thought that if all things are interconnected, then all things must be in some way involved with Pauly Shore.
