My girlfriend and I downloaded Pacman which is a great game. But of course we didn't have the proper joysticks and had to resort to using controls on our pc and phones and it just proved to be too hard. I'd love to get an actual Pacman using an old Atari game console with joysticks. I'd be willing to pay big bucks for that.
