Troxel let me take his restored baby pacman off his hands.

It is one fun machine. Had some friends come over to help me get it into the basement and put the hurt on my keg.

Worst part was waiting for it to warm up enough to turn it on. Set up a fan to blow on it for 30 minutes and she powered on fine. Put in a new ball, leveled it, adjusted the lock down bar, put some credits on it and let the folks have fun. Had a few little issues, but had it dialed in and got to play it late into the morning.

Needs a few bulbs, but not worried about that because I am going to LED it up so it matches my other pins. The maze is tough. I never really played pacman much before and the machine is so cute and just screamed "BorK you so need to get me and cherish me". It was impossible to resist.

Wife initially put me on a 2 year ban from buying another machine when I decided to get it. She sorta has a point, but we came up with an agreement that I will start saving for my next one instead of scrounging to get one on an impulse. An Attack from Mars or Fire will show up eventually I hope.

Friend made me a nice piece of art for the man cave.

Now the hard part is deciding how to update my sig. What is a hybrid arcade and pinball called?

My vote is that Baby Pac is more of a pinball with a fun video twist. Then again I can see how it could be argued just as well the other way :p Either way congrats on the score.
 
like to see some more pic's of your basement? Looks like a fun place to be. Gotta admit that a nice buzz and you shred on pinball. When I'am sober I can't play, get me a bit of good-smoke or a few beers and I rip!
 
Theron(Troxel) is a good guy. Helped me quite a bit when i got my baby pac. Good to see the baby pac went to a good home. Mine gets quite a bit of play.

Anyways, nice pick up!

Having the keg fridge down there helps my game play ;)

clip of me rambling and showing off the cave. Need to make a new one with the new addition.

It was a pleasure to get this from Theron. He even fixed a sound pot at the last minute. Might have to take some pics of this one to send him while he works on his other BPM.

Really looking forward to getting home in an hour so I can play it. Did not get enough games in last night. Been reading the manual at work and compiled a list for the dip switches. Need to count up the lights tonight so I can place a LED order.

wakka wakka

Thanks for the kind words, guys. I'm glad to know that the game is at a good home. Still need to come over sometime to the man-cave.

I wonder what the odds are of having 3 baby pac-mans in a 10-minute radius from each other.
