Ms. Pac-Man/Galaga - 20th Anniversary Class of 1981 Reunion (V1.08)

Celebrate two titans of arcade gaming with Ms. Pac-Man/Galaga - 20th Anniversary Class of 1981 Reunion, a 2000 compilation from Namco and Cosmodog. This cabinet brings together the maze-chase action of Ms. Pac-Man, where players guide the titular character through increasingly complex levels while evading colorful ghosts, alongside the intense space combat of Galaga, challenging pilots to fend off waves of alien invaders. Two players can compete simultaneously, each taking on their own game experience within this unique combination. Beyond the core gameplay, the title includes selectable operator options like "Speedy" Ms. Pac-Man and “Rapid Fire” Galaga, allowing for adjusted difficulty levels and faster action. Hidden features are also accessible via button combinations, including a secret mode that unlocks the original Pac-Man experience and a way to play through a sample level of Galaga. This cabinet utilizes a vertical screen with a resolution of 288x224 pixels and boasts a refresh rate of 60Hz. Notably, one unit (serial number 249) once belonged to Michael Jackson and was later sold at auction, adding to its unique history.
