E. Honda is correct. [Applause]We have three games left-- Pac-Man, Ms. Pac-Man, and Donkey Kong Junior. One of them is the mystery game. Which game do you want to play? |

i'll be honest, i prerecorded all 3 so in the interest of fairness (not just picking the one with the highest score in the time allowed) i'll let a wheel decide (showing a snapshot for proof)  Looks like i'll take the male dot muncher |

I hate to tell you this... but MS. PAC-MAN was our mystery game. [Audience Groans]At least you have chosen an iconic quarter muncher. Steve... please tell us all about Pac-Man. [Variant Theme, Steve Narrates]Steve: It's the original Pac-Man on a lazy munch around the maze gobbling up dots scoring points and enticing the ghost monsters close to the energizer dots so he can turn the monsters blue. And then gobble them up and score more points. If a cherry, strawberry or orange should appear in the maze, you might stop to munch a bit to score more points. It's the Pac-Man... known to all and loved by many.Tony: It's the moment of truth, Smashwhammy. Do you have any strategy of scoring points playing this game? |

It's OK... and you're right. You have 40 seconds to get as much points as you possibly can.
Get into your playing position and we'll place 40 seconds.
Here we go with Pac-Man. On your mark... get set... play.

It's the thought that counts. Glad you had a great time, Justin. And here are your family and friends... [Cheers and Applause][Main Theme]And we are done with our test pilot. Be sure to watch our syndicated television premiere of Starcade. There will be more games, from retro to new, and one lucky player could win that grand prize. Until we see you in our premiere... this is Tony Lane reminding you that I hope all of your troubles get zapped. See you next month, folks... [Long Applause, Cheers]
