thanks for the info. I have the exact same sticks in a mame cab that I once built. the 4-8 way switching technique works great. But unfortunately I don´t like the throw of the sticks that much, I prefer Sanwa or Seimitsu for the ´rapid and precision movement´ games, like Japanese SHMUP´s.

Great stuff. But really .. why not using MAME? Not sure why you put any energy in coding the game from start? =)

Most important reason: there is no mame version of Pac Man Battle Royale or Fix It Felix Jr.

Well - took a few weeks longer but is now available for download only on XBLA and PSN.

@Sjaak: Maybe you want to give it a try in your table.

Heard Namco managed to mess Pac-Man Museum up. The games are all boxed around, they look like crud, and every review I read said the collection wasn't worth the $20 price tag.

nice..
one option I wish it had was to select Pac man, MS Pac, Baby Pac and Pac cat or Pac dog.

Do you have a thread on your TRON space paranoid?

Would love to make that to go with my TRON and Discs Of Tron.

Yeah, I've seen few comments like that. But I had to test it by myself because I can't hardly resist to any Namco 'old school' compilations (I'm still expecting some kind of bonus content like anecdotes on games, stories of whatever...) Anf of course I was curious to test that famous Pac Man Battle Royale.
And yes, all the games are 'boxed', which is not dramatic on nowadays huge flat screens, but there's no real additional values regarding previous compilations released with the same games, except of course 'Royale' but also few Pac Man man games never released on a compilation so far. No specific bonus at all too...It wasn't worth that price  :-\

+1  :)
