Title: 1980 Pac-Man identification request
Post by: jspicher on August 16, 2010, 08:45:06 pm

Hi guys,

I have a simple question. This is a 1980 upright pacman cabinet...

Can anyone tell by the picture if it's a cabaret (mini) cabinet, or a full size?

Looks like a cabaret to me but l don't know the cabinet's well enough to be sure.

Thanks!

That's a cabaret.

The full-size cabinet looks like this:

I'd love to get my hands on a Pacman cabaret...

Here's a thread on a nice Pacman cabaret restoration (http://forum.arcadecontrols.com/index.php?topic=90474.0;all).
I gotta say, this is one of the nicest restorations I've seen. If we had a resto-hall-of-fame list, this would be on it for sure.
