[ Siren Wails ]Jr. Pac-Man is our mystery game! [ Cheers and Applause ]Please listen directly to our announcer Kevin about this spectacular prize. [ Variant Theme ]Kevin: For finding today's mystery game, you have won an arcade cabinet. For the mighty masses of Marvel mutant fans, it’s time to punch, blast, and slash through the home arcade cabinet of KONAMI's X-Men 4 Player from Arcade1Up! Control as Cyclops, Wolverine, Colossus, Storm, Nightcrawler, or Dazzler, in taking on the Brotherhood of Evil Mutants masterminded by Magneto. Four simultaneous players, amazing mutant powers, endless fun. The X-Men 4 Player arcade game is equipped with 3 included games-- "X-Men" , "Captain America & The Avengers" and "The Avengers in Galactic Storm" from Data East, and Live WIFI; so you can fight your way through each level with the help of fellow retrogamers playing from their own cabinets.

Now is your chance to prove it. Kevin, please tell us about this son of a Pac. [ Variant Theme ]Kevin: Language, Tony... this is a family show. Oh-- speaking of family... Jr. Pac-Man features gameplay similar to the original Pac-Man, but with a few changes. As Jr., you need to eat all of the dots in a maze without running into the four ghosts that are trying to get you. The maze is now much larger, and no longer fits on a single screen. The maze will scroll around to follow the action. From time to time a tasty bonus will bounce around the screen which can be eaten for extra points. However, one of these larger dots will cause Jr. Pac-Man to slow down greatly when he eats them making it more difficult to remain one step ahead of the ghosts which constantly pursue him! Located throughout the maze are power pellets; when Jr. eats one of these, the ghosts will temporarily turn blue and can now be eaten to earn even more points. Jr. Pac-Man... he's still a chip off the old block.Tony: The first time I had played this, it was on the Atari 2600. It's not that easy. Do you think you can handle the gigantic maze with ghosts, explosive items, and power pellets?

This time, you have 40 seconds to get as much points as you possibly can. Small hint. Watch out for that bonus item that bounces. If it lands on a power pellet... BOOM!
40 seconds. On your mark... get set... play!

Time Pilot '84. If you beat the score of 16,900 points, you'll win the jukebox. [ Cheers and Applause ]While we head off to the machine, Kevin will activate the time machine and tell us about Time Pilot in the year 1984. [ Variant Theme ]Kevin: The future is now. Time Pilot '84 is a sequel to one of America's greatest arcade shoot 'em ups. Not only you're a time traveler from the year 1984, but also fighting for the future against time altering alien life forms and UFOs. Not only you can shoot 'em down... but also use a lock-in feature and use unlimited homing missles. It's time you go further into the unknown world of Time Pilot '84.Tony: This is it, Whammy. The only question is... are you good at playing Time Pilot?

I see. Now... here's a hint-- If you spot a huge ship, lock on that object and fire a homing missle for bonus points.
You have 30 seconds to beat the score of 16,900 in Time Pilot '84.
