I’ve got a pocket full of quarters and I’m heading to the arcade, I don’t have a lot of money, but I’m bringing everything I made, I got a callus on my finger and my shoulder's hurting too, I’m gonna eat em all up just as soon as they turn blue!
I had the Ms. Pac-Man one (the first edition that lacked the option to erase high scores), and all 5 games on it had their audio pitched differently from their arcade originals. Ms. Pac-Man being a half-semitone deeper, Mappy a half-semitone higher, Galaga and Pole Position a full semitone higher, and Xevious an entire octave deeper. Still played great, though.
@@Demeech i meas the audio its perfect on ms Pac-Man plug n play the problem is how the TV process the game sounds and they sound much better comparated to the pac man one
I actually still have a more "modern" tv that has back outlets for the colored plugs. Also I bought the exact same namco plug n play YEARS ago around 2009- 2012, twice at a Flea Market, on separate occasions between these years. Wasn't my first gaming console, but I still loved the system. I loved playing pacman, but this was the first time I was introduced to Bosconian! Loved it! I broke both of them sadly, years ago lol. Wrapped the wires around the joystick and that damaged the wires internally. I still have 1 of them, but I'm not sure if I'll ever get it fixed, throw it away, or still keep it around for nostalgia's sake.
Older than you, 1998, grew up with the Ps1, Gameboy Color, N64, Ps2, GameCube, Gameboy Advance, and the Wii. My first console would have to be... either the Ps1 or N64, hard to remember since it was such a long time ago, and essentially had 3 (N64,Ps1, & GBC) of the listed consoles at a very early age, which were owned by my older brothers at the time, but still had them around growing up. Eventually the GameCube and Ps2 came around, and afterwards the Wii. Also had a DS lite, but it was never a favorite of mine, just a console I had around later on around the age of 10-12. Sadly, I don't have most of these consoles, save for 3, the Ps2, Wii & DS. The older ones like the GameCube, N64, and Ps1, all died from overheating lol. As for the GBA, well it was just forgotten about since eventually we had the DS to play the exact games on, which it was convenient, and displayed the GBA games far better than the GBA itself. As for the GBC, it "died" long before the GBA. (It was the early 2000s and I got impatient to have a turn to play it and threw it down the stairs. Could still be played, but couldn't save any games 😐)
Back when this came out there were still a lot of tvs with only the coax input so to play this on any of those tvs you had to use a vcr or an RF modulator I was 2 years old when this plug n play came out in 2003
The reason it’s not arcade perfect is because the plug and play was released around the GameCube era, where arcade games were getting rereleased a lot. They wanted to cut costs, so instead of emulating the games, the were remade from the ground up.
You didn't need to shoot the spheres of the space ships. I remember that you could destroy the green ships by shooting the red orb in the center of the ships.
Is it the pac man plug n play? I've been looking EVERYWHERE for one for my mommy for Christmas. It's one of her favorite games from her childhood and I know it will bring her so much joy and good memories from her childhood. It doesn't even have to be brand new I just need it to work properly.
My first game system was a miss pacman plugin play by jacks pacific and after that I got that pacman plugin play with new rally x witch was my first first two games systems!

My first system was a ps2, it was very old and needed memory cards instead of proper save slots, and since all the games crashed after a while we threw it out, we had an xbox 360 as well but that got thrown away because it had the red ring of death
Brah im one of the few people out here who can say this was one of my first systems was 100 games in 1 system aka those bootleg games with a bunch of classic games you would find at the mall i know it was either that or the psp i got first might have been the psp first either way i had a lot of fun with the classics and i have played this specific plug in play and it's great bosconian, digdug, galaga,mappy, and pacman were there best games without a doubt.
I almost got one of those bootleg systems! I had only $30 and had the choice between a bootleg Power Joy "1,000,000 in 1" or a purple GameCube. Glad I went with the right choice.
@@Demeech Crap man always wanted a GameCube by the time i started getting into gaming though the wii was the console at the time played a little bit of the gamecube with my cousins f zero Pac man and other games metal of honor was where it's at but still though im thankful i got to play the wii games though
well should iPhones count? well if so then my mom’s iPhone 4 was my first device for me to play videogames my very first game was Angry Birds in 2011 i love Angry Birds and Roblox too i started that back in 2016 my love for Angry Birds quickly got killed in 2018 because im starting to love Nintendo and nowadays im being a fanboy and enjoying Mario and Zelda now i started Nintendo when i was 11
Cool to see other people who remember the good plug & play stuff and not just the garbage ones!
Yep! Jakks Pacific made quality Plug N Plays!

I'm a HUGE Dig Dug fan glad to see someone talk about it!
Me too! Have you played Dig Dug II or any Mr. Driller game?
I wad born in 03, didn't even know this was first made in that year. I remember my mom & siblings playing it. The music takes me back

0:45 there's actually a Sonic game on Leapster that would be a interesting video
Maybe

There was a Dig Dug reimagining for the DS. And it featured Mr. Driller as a playable character because he's cannonly the son of the Dig Dug man

Nice! Always fun to look back!
The V.Smile and Leapster L-Max were my first consoles and the Wii and DSI were my first major console.
Same! Except I had the OG leapster.
I own one of those plug and plays!

On ebay, it's called the Jakks Pacific Pac-Man Plug N Play! Very easy to find.

U can actually shoot in 8 directions in the original Bosconian which is my favorite game here. Good times thanks Demeech.
Bosconian was actually pretty fun!
I Can Understand Why You Like Pac-Man So Much Now...
I Don't Blame You Though,The Pac Is The Man!
THE GREAT YELLOW ONE
@@Demeech Is There A Cult Where We Can Worship The Pac Out There?😅

First game I’ve ever played was Zelda Links Awakening on a Gameboy
oh lol I remember my cousin had that system, I think i still have it lol
Hopefully it still works. My original wore down.
@@Demeech Haha, I found it actually, but the cable doesn't work
@@Demeech nvm, it does work if I bend it! :D
That was my first too! (the Leapster)
I wish I could find the games for it. But if not, games are cheap.
Oh those plug in play stuff I had the ms Pac-Man version tho
I have that one too!
But it's running on what some call a Nintendo on a chip, from my experience in sound only
My first was the Vsmile, My actual first game system is the GBA SP or the same plug and play, I don't remember.
I had a V Smile too!
DS was my first gaming system
It was my first true gaming system with interchangeable cartridges.
OH SHIT! I had no clue you premiered this video. Sorry man.
It was an instant premiere. Just an experiment.
I feel like I'm as old as the dinosaurs now XD
you could do melee or the game and watch next
Possibly will!
My first systems were the ds lite, Wii, and dsi.
First true game console I had was the DS and shortly after the Wii.
0:28 R.I.P
That's really cute :3
It is!
well should iPhones count? well if so then my mom’s iPhone 4 was my first device for me to play videogames
my very first game was Angry Birds in 2011
i love Angry Birds and Roblox too i started that back in 2016
my love for Angry Birds quickly got killed in 2018 because im starting to love Nintendo and nowadays im being a fanboy and enjoying Mario and Zelda now
i started Nintendo when i was 11
Phones do not count and never will count.
oh so the Switch is my first console that i owned
and the first console that i played was an Xbox 360 when i was 8 at the playground and a Wii when i was 4 at my uncle’s house
i did get into the GameCube N64 Wii 3DS DS GBA SNES NES Wii Uand GBC later on in life thanks to emulation the games was way better than the Switch
My first console was the switch. Kind of sad.
Still great. There are plenty of games that will be new to you.
mine was the 3ds
Which model?
