What I Love About My Pac-Man Head-To-Head Arcade Table

Our Pac-Man Head-to-Head Arcade Table arrived about 10 weeks ago now, and it’s safe to say nobody’s gotten tired of it yet. It gets constant play, and it’s proven its durability in a big way — not a glitch nor a break to be had. The high scores have been soaring, and the head-to-head competition gets good and feisty (and much louder than the machine itself thanks to its volume control, which allows you to play all night long without keeping everybody awake).
