[Arcade Pictures] - _The_ Thread!
« on: February 16, 2012, 09:32:54 AM »
I love to browse the web to find pictures of arcade games, some you see often, and some are a rare sight.
This thread is purely picture based, so lets get started....

Pac Mans!!!!

Small request (I am a teacher ;) )
Post your source! Information is invalid without source (My students for example may NEVER list Wikipedia as source, as the no1 rule of Wikipedia is that it MAY NOT CONTAIN ORIGINAL RESEARCH).
I already saw 3 images (no 5,6 and 10) that make me want to read the page around it was posted in....

Good point!  Unfortunately I've been saving pics for years as I go and unfortunately haven't been good about keeping relevant info with it :(

I believe one pic you're referring to (with the SIs?) was from a Japanese article regarding the 30th anniversary of Space Invaders and how there were "Invader Houses" dedicated solely to Space Invaders machines in Japan.
