In truth, the Number 7 Arcade Classics' screen is based off an older model Pacman tabletop "portable" arcade machine by ColeCo that used some kinda funky late 70s/early 80s era LED display. The 8-Bit Guy did a video about it on his channel a while back where he tore it apart for a clean-up and got it working again.

I really like this #14. I didn't care for the Ms. Pac offerings from either company. I did a comparison of those as well. Thanks for watching!

Just a small correction, but the Basic Fun unit does not have cornering. The ghosts just don't have pathfinding and randomly turn away, it just happen to pick up instead of left. The only mechanic Basic Fun incorporated movement wise would be the fact that pellets slow you down. The NES ROM however, has scatter mode, pathfinding as well as cornering, which is absolutely necessary for longer play sessions. The only thing Basic Fun really has over My Arcade is the sprite colors and sound effects. From a programming perspective, the My Arcade units (all three versions they have released) are hundreds of times more accurate to the arcade rom. The ghosts do not chase you whatsoever, and instead just randomly wander around. But it's the only option since they didn't incorporate the cornering mechanic, because the cornering mechanic is what allows you to escape ghosts while eating dots. So their solution to prevent the ghosts from killing the player outright is to make them NOT chase the player. I'm currently working on a 1:1 Pac-Man recreation, to the point where it can run patterns, and from what I've seen, the My Arcade pocket player is the closest recreation, with the main issues being flipped scatter targets as well as incorrect ghost starting positions. Granted, this is completely ignoring sound or graphical accuracy and relying on how many original mechanics are brought over, being as objective as possible. My Arcade has more of the original intended mechanics than the basic fun unit, although basic fun does use sampled versions of the original audio.

@@GenXGrownUp thanks for the quick response much love to your Channel, this little mini arcade keychain is pretty legit when it comes to the sound and the quality is very similar to the one that you reviewed but in smaller pixels of course still for being the size it is it plays really good

It sounds like you just recapped this entire video.

Arcade classics by Basic Fun kept trying to "Improve" the Pacman from being a Gamboy Pacman knockoff to a Coleco knockoff to being an accurate version of the gamescreen, BUT I still wish they would have used the classic cabinet like the My Arcade. Was it a rights issue???? The Basic Fun coin drop "whacka" sounds a lot better than the generic coin drop Ms. Pacman and looks like it plays better than than Ms. Pacman. I think I picked up the wrong pac game lol. I still HATE the cabinet art!

Let me know when you get Spy Hunter.
