Fired up the Entex Pac Man 2 after finishing this video - still working beautifully. New video to replace the crappy 9 year old one, maybe? 🤔

That was the video that got us interested in this channel! Reminds us that we ought to work on the project to replace the worn button pads Y'know you missed a really good (alliteration?) by not renaming your channel 'The Maritime Ma'am' once you decided to change polarity... Just a sucker for wurds - like George Carlin

I got this when I was a kid in the early 80's. I wanted the replica arcade cabinet version but my parents got me this thinking it was what I wanted. I ended up loving it and played it a lot. I may need to try and find one again.

I used to own one of these. I had totally forgotten about it and then today I saw a similar yellow color somewhere and it brought the memory back.

I had this as a kid sometime around 82. Had a dream about finding it in a second hand store last night. Jumped on google and here I am. Thanks for the fond memories. Really nice honest video.

This brought back memories. I still have this one bought by my parents in Sweden back in the days. But it's labeled Puck Man. And its the exact same maze as Game & Times Grab Man for some reason.

I still have mine and it works just fine. It eats batteries, though. The fact that the ghosts don't get Pac Man when you first turn it on and remain idle was for demoing the game in stores. It's programmed that way on purpose. My uncle worked at Sears Roebuck when these were sold, and that's what the TOMY reps told him, anyway.

The part where you mentioned eating through batteries made me think about this Sega Handheld known as the Game Gear, that thing uses 6 AA Batteries, and it chews through them in 2 hours.
@Lachlant1984
@Lachlant1984 3 года назад
It also reminds me of another portable video game system called the Atari Lynx, my God that thing chews through 6 AA batteries in a short period of time. Good console, but not so good with batteries.

wow that really is sick, I like how the display looks. Also, how do you make your minidv footage look crisp? for some reason if I render to 720 60 and upload the youtube compression makes it look bad
@themaritimegirl
@themaritimegirl 3 года назад
You need to de-interlace it first with a program like Handbrake. I have a tutorial here: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-xjwrQx7Zdso.html
@rupert6478
@rupert6478 3 года назад
​@@themaritimegirl Thanks a lot for the tutorial. The video looks super crisp on my computer screen, with no combing artifacts. I still have 1 question: So after encoding thru HandBrake, should I render it to *720p60* on Vegas?
@rupert6478
@rupert6478 3 года назад
@@themaritimegirl never mind, rendering to 1080p still preserves the crispness that the HandBrake configuring did. thanks a lot, maritime! My PD150's footage now looks wonderful!!

You can kind of tell how slow the CPU in this game is because it really stops for a bit when you collect the 'testicles' or eat a ghost.
@themaritimegirl
@themaritimegirl 3 года назад
That was indeed a limitation of the NEC chip - display scanning needs to stop to allocate resources for the more complex sounds. Other Tomy games used a more powerful Hitachi chip that is able to play music without blanking the display.

Could you not have soldered a resistor between the audio output on the circuit board and the piezo buzzer? Just curious.

Slightly unrelated, but I do not like carbon zinc batteries, particularly after they serious damaged an LED candle my brother gave me for Christmas a few years ago, so I never buy them now.
