Default Retro Gaming with Ms. Pac Man

http://www.pocketpcaddict.com/modul...iewtopic&t=1497

"I was given the rare opportunity to travel back through time to my early years (exact time period of my life is not given for reason) and re-live my days of: searching through couch seats, coat pockets, under the couch and back through the couch seats again; to find those always elusive quarters needed to play Ms. Pacman. I can honestly say that Ms. Pacman was not one of my stomping grounds in the arcade. (I was more of a Defender, Zaxxon, Donkey Kong sort of guy) But, I did play the occasional Pac Man (when my quarters were sitting on the Defender machine waiting for the current player to finish and have me tutor him in the ways of smart bombs, baders and mutants.) I was very excited to download my new (yet nostalgic) release of Ms Pac Man from Ballshooters.com. Dare I say, "Rad Dude", now I will now take you through my journey back into time for some narly game playing, complete with my brand of 80s lingo!"

Check out the radical reviews dudes and dudettes. Excellent! And, hey, isn't it "gnarly"? :lol:

Oh... the memory of Zaxxon brings back very pleasant memories.

Has anyone heard of the port of such classic Arcade games to our PocketPC?

Just hoping.....

Send a message via MSN to pocketpcfox

I just emailed the Pacman authors for cab files (I'm using an old mac and can't install from an exe file) and would you believe I got a reply from my request about 5 minutes after I sent it! Nice work!
