I was checking some examples out on a touchscreen jukebox forum, and came across this AFTER pic. Who know what it was originally?

Correct!

Here is the BEFORE pic:

Apparently it was a gutted cab - no playfield, monitor, boards, anything....

Wow It really looked that way? It's a nice gutted cab.

Is the 'marquee' a soffit vent/air return grille? How did it get from gutted cab to that orange thing? That is hideous.
 
I don't recall them ever working to begin with. :cool:

I've never seen a working one. Now I know there are videos of some working on youtube and things, but those are clearly rigged up with cgi skills like R. Kelly said that tape was.

I've probably seen 15 of them before over the years in various places, never once been able to play it, lol.
 
Since it's apparently almost impossible to fix a baby pac, I guess worse games could be converted, lol.


Whaaat? Mine works great. They are not hard to fix but you have to be systematic about it. Break everything down into sections and go through the whole machine and it will be reliable.
Our local pizza hut had one about 20-25 years ago that I played. Sadly they finally closed that PH and tore the building down last year. I had a few birthday partys there and that place always had a few arcade machines and at least one of the pac games.
Oops, off topic again.
 
In my 39 years on this earth, I have never seen nor played a Baby Pac.
Never in any of our arcades when I was a young punk and never in any of the op inventories I have worked for.

Is it fun to play?

Yeah I like it. Its a hard and challenging game for sure. Come to my next arcade party and you can play one.

One of these days I would like to make it to one of these parties.
It seems like I am always working or have other family obligations when I see the dates posted.
 
Keep your eyes out in the general section. I plan on posting a date within the next month or so for my next event. For those who have been to my other ones I have several new games in the collection now so it wont be the same old same old.
You should definitly make the crabtowne event next time we do it. We had a great turnout and its a great place to host. Plenty of room, lots of games and a vending/trading area.
