Working Pacland arcade complete and original

I saw this one last week.

A couple years ago I passed on one that woulda cost me about 800 shipped - that seems really reasonable now . If one came up close to me I'd probably get it .
 
There is a local working Pacland arcade. Thinking of picking it up. What have these been going for? Any recent prices?

Is it a desirable game?

The add says "low ballers can sukit". So, you're probably out ... :D
For me, I don't think this is a game I would want taking space in my arcade. Looks like something you can play on a MAME machine or similar. YMMV
Maybe if you have kids it will have some appeal ... dunno ...
 
So this guy is pretty on target on kijiji. You dont see it all too often, and my son seems to be on a Pacman kick these days, so that would be my main reason in getting this.

Only problem is, that the cabinet looks "OK". Knowing my OCD, I would have to tear it down and make it look mint, extending the time I will wait to play it with my son, and injecting a ton of time and money.

I have to factor that in.

If it was fully restored, what would this go for?

lol, that part was funny. Cant be more straight up then that.
 
I would be all over that if it weren't for shipping across the border . Great deal for someone !
 
I picked up a Tapper converted to a Pacland...and after getting a feel for moving (running) with the buttons rather than a joystick I began to like the game. To me, the game has that original Super Mario Brothers feel to it. I was lucky enough to snag a dedicated Pacland cabinet on the cheap a few years ago but like the rest of my restores.....it is still a work in progress. The good news is the artwork is now available including the top and bottom CPO's. Now I have a half restored Tapper and half restored Pacland.
