That cup holder is awesome!
On a side note, it looks similar to the Euro Puckman.

the people that post these dont know anything about arcade games.. Its probably the only one they own and they just assume its old and something like that has to be worth that knida money.. They know nothing about these forums or people that collect them in general. They will eventually find out how much its really worth when ppl dont buy it for that amount!!

If I am correct, that looks like an old Centuri cabinet. Probably bootleg Ms. Pac stuff inside of it.

Looks identicle to the one in that flyer up there. I bet it is factory even if it is ugly as hell.

Looks like somebody took some time to do their own artwork.
What is it with people putting cupholders on arcade cabinets? They look like ass. Why not just put a table next to the freaking game. Are people that freaking thirsty every time they play a freaking game?

Looks like ass, huh? I've seen worse. Still hoping to come across Willis Ms. Pac side art. Doesn't get much wierder than that.
O.k. Everyone knows that Pacman was originally Puckman right? right? everyone? I just want to be clear on that so that I'm not asking someone who THINKS they are an arcade expert.
Did a Ms. Puckman ever exist? I'm thinking No because the whole @uckman thing that caused Puckman to change to Pacman would have happened long before a sequel (Ms.Pacman) was
released.
If a Ms. Puckman did actually exist it would have to be pretty RARE and 1,500.00 doesn't sound crazy out of line for something like that, how much does Computer Space, Pong, etc.
go for...it's all about history and rarity.

No... Namco (Japanese) created Puck Man... Namco did not create Ms. Pac Man... as a matter of fact, they almost sued Midway (American) over Ms. Pac Man.
BTW - Midway didn't really make Ms. Pac Man either. General Computer Corporation created Crazy Otto which was a bootleg of Pac Man. GCI showed Midway Crazy Otto and they (Midway) bought the rights to it and changed the character to Ms. Pac Man after getting impatient waiting for Namco to release a follow up to Pac Man (which would be Super Pac I do believe). Namco caught wind and threatened to sue Midway and GCI. They gave up the rights to Ms. Pac to Namco out of fear of said lawsuit.
I do believe this is the only known screenshot of Crazy Otto. It's said 3 boards were made...

No, I dont think thats a cup holder. That looks like one of the ash tray mounts that the metal tray drops down in and you just lift the ash tray out to empty it.

Ah! You sir are the winner... I never smoked anything that needed an ashtray so that must be why I didn't pickup on it.

Edit: Looks like a nice bootleg kit from what is online.

Cool documentary.... one thing I can't stand about these types of documentaries... the inaccurate video footage and the inaccurate sound bytes and this show is no different.

Looks very unusual. I would buy it for a few hundred max.
Rare does not always mean valuable.
I wonder what it would fetch at auction?

That *was* the only known screenshot! (see attached)
Crazy Otto will soon be in MAME, and the full story of its development will be published in the January issue of GameInformer magazine.

REALLY? Nice...
...and what is GameInformer magazine?
EDIT: Nevermind on GameInformer... it's a crappy console magazine... but I AM excited to see Crazy Otto. Since it is a BOOTLEG/HACK will it actually make MAME or just MisfitMAME?
