Pac-Man returning to arcades

Not yet, it will first be seen at the Amusement Expo in Vegas next month. I plan on going and getting some video then, I'm sure others here will too.
 
Interesting. I can't say I've played or really know much about the XBLA PacMan CE game, but a 4 player PacMan game could be lots of fun. I mean, it worked for Mario on the Wii, right?

Sorta. For Mario the problem is that often-times you get pulled in various ways by the other players. For PAC CE, that shouldn't be a problem (the maze should still fit on screen).

I think it would be a blast to have a 4 player pac cabinet.
 
I love Pac-Man Championship Edition! I kinda thought that someday I would like to have a custom machine that played this game. Only thing is its a timed game, and I always enjoy trying to make your credit last as long as possible. Cant wait to see more about this game. Thanks for the heads-up!
 
Pac-Man CE is fun but all the modes are timed so it's short. I'm guessing this won't have all the modes or be timed (at least I hope so).

True. I didn't even realize the Mario game was out until I played it at a friend's house last weekend. It was still a blast to play overall.
 
Word has it there will be two cabinets at Amusement expo 2010.
 
Cool! so when are we arcade collector going be able to get a hold of this game under $400??

Hehe, probably in 20 years. They weren't quoting a direct price yet (they did say that the cabinet was going to a change a little) but it was "rumored" around the show that it will start at $5000. I hope it's a little lower than that but we'll have to wait and see.
 
That looks like a lot of fun as long as you have four players. I would like to see a scoring system of some kind, and more of a focus on eating dots and ghosts. Still, it looks very promising, can't wait til I see one in the wild.
 
Pac-Man CE is probably my favorite in the whole franchise, and this is very exciting news.

Especially since I've often thought of making a CE cabinet for my arcade. If I had the skills and weren't so lazy, I surely would have attempted it by now.

I just hope one of these machines is available in my area whenever it's released!
