It's either Ms Pac-Man or Galaga.  Impossible to tell from this angle, since you've sanded everything off it.

My guess: Galaga, as there seems to be a hint of dark tint.

Yeah it's Galaga!

MS.PAC-MAN and GALAGA had the same shape cabinet though.

Yes i had to unplug the bug zapper!

Don't really need it in January,

Although it was 70 degrees here today!  :)

I know!  That's why I said "It's either Ms Pac-Man or Galaga."

Could have also been :
 
Bosconian or Gaplus

They also used the same cabinet.   :P

Nope, Bosconian had a different cabinet, it isn't as deep as a MsPac or Galaga.

Gaplus I don't know, never really seen one.  But I doubt it is exactly the same since it came out years later.

These pix came from KLOV.

Gaplus, yes.

Bosconian and Rally-X, no.

The cabinets were not as deep 'cause the monitor was horizontaly mounted.

I assume this was done to save some $ on wood.

I see what you mean about BOSCONIAN,

But it still has the same shape as MS.PAC-MAN /GALAGA .

But RALLY-X was in a GALAXIAN/PAC-MAN style cabinet.

Rally-X and Bosconian are indeed the same style cabinet, however, they are indeed more shallow. Also, Bosconians were made of pressboard. Made a nice sponge for moisture.

I can attest to that first hand.

I must correct myself. Bosconian is in the style of Ms Pac and Galaga. Rally-X, the style of Pacman Galaxian.

From the pics you posted, you can clearly see the difference in depth.
