About This Piece
Russell's Take
When I was a young boy, I remember when Atari came out.
That was HUGE.
Suddenly, games that felt like they belonged in an arcade could actually be played at home.
But there was still something special about walking into a real arcade.
The lights.
The sounds.
All those machines lined up.
And for me, there was one machine I was looking for.
Ms. Pac-Man.
Pac-Man was good.
But Ms. Pac-Man?
Ms. Pac-Man was FIRE.
I can still remember walking into an arcade and practically making a beeline straight for that machine.
Put the quarter in.
Grab the joystick.
And GO.
So when I found out you can now put a full-size Ms. Pac-Man-style arcade cabinet in your own home with 12 retro games, I had to put it in the Russell's Hustles Shop.
This isn't the $10 nostalgia purchase.
This is for somebody who looks at that cabinet and thinks:
"Man...I always wanted one of those."
Because sometimes you don't just want to remember being a kid.
Sometimes you want to bring a little piece of it home.
Opportunity Is Everywhere. And apparently, sometimes it still takes quarters.
