New Jakks Retro Arcade

Ummon:
Nice UI - quick and smooth. Interesting coin drop. Wonder how many it holds.  Pac definitely looked arcade, whereas I think before it was a console port. However, the port didn't stretch or display full screen, but did like Mame does with default settings.....ohhh....looks like they hacked the rom to display score, pacs, and fruit on the side. Still looks like authentic sprites, though. I wonder if all the games are 4-way? In the video, the stick didn't seem restricted. And, yeah, buttons are on the wrong side. What is this, a return to the thinking of the 70s?
Blanka:
The games are used in the table-top layout, and are original. Only thing missing from the first attempts are the coin credits. Maybe they even included authentic credit display in this one.

I don't know why they insist on putting the sticks on the left side and the buttons on the right. Irritates the hell out of me!

Probably because that's how Atari 2600 controllers were and those of us who were around for that era are more than likely their target.

Yeah for home computers etc I always used my right hand for the stick, even on those joysticks with a button on each side. Not sure why actually  ???
