Console modder Sam Thornley actually built this Pac-Man Mini handheld way back in 2007, but he only recently shared it with the members of Ben Heck's forums, and we're sure glad he did. There's nothing too special at the heart of this one, just a Jakks Pacific Namco Arcade Classic system, but Sam hit all the right marks with the little details, from the red buttons that are just itching to be pressed to the old school flip switch to the bigger-than-it-has-to-be casing. If you think you're up to the task of building your own, you can find all the details you need an plenty of pics to guide you on your way by hitting up the read link below.

Waka, waka, waka, waka...
I think that's one too many wakas.
waka waka waka = fozzie bear
waka waka waka waka ... = pacman I guess

Dear Editors: Please to be making with the editing.
i can't wait to try and take that on a plane.
Is that an entire arcade in your pocket or are you happy to see me?
That thing looks like a detonator.
yeah that was the joke, melting point
i knew i needed instructions with that post. and apparently my double post and failed reply below did not assist in me in my aspirations. i feel the needs to kill myself

uhh, where did the rest of my coding go? it took me years to program that. crikey.
I'm more excited that you can play Dig Dug on this, according to the read link. Then I saw the Pacman cufflinks on the side and got even more excited, but then realized how nerdy I was and backed away in shame.
Also, I've used those same plastic-esque boxes here at work to house relay boards, switching components, and electronic tomfoolery. They shred apart under the raw destruction of a Dremel and you'll end up picking plastic-esque bits out of your hair and mouth for hours later.
Awww, you poor poor nerd.
*Realises I have a pair of Pac-Man cufflinks.*
*Sobs quietly into hands.*

The TSA would never let you get passed the gate with that thing.
They'd take one look at that, one look at you, and reach for the walkie talkie. Then you would spend the next two hours being stripped searched.
They call it freedom, and the terrorist hate us for having it. Take that terrorists!
what are you talking about? i'd totally outclass them. first, i'd eat all their small doughnuts. and they'll chase me because of it. and then, i'll wait by their big doughnuts, like right in a corner. they'll think they have me. then i eat that big doughnut, they flee, i chase and eat them, and then i will randomly get to eat a cherry. suddenly, i'm home free for my plane, homey.
dude...I want whatever you're smoking. It's been a long week. LOL.
what the hot sauce? why did this show up again. i am losing my battle against the interwebs. must level up, gain lightning strikes.
weblogs inc is a multi-headed hydra of doom. with frikkin lazerface too.
It happens to every guy, from time to time.
Though really, in several years, I've never had it comment twice. I think it just requires some patience in waiting for the first one to show up.
i could build a better commenting system. build it with my BARE HANDS. and the POWER OF MY MIND. and with the help of NAKED CHIMPANZEE JUICER POPSICLE STICK IN YOUR EYE
except the comment hiding seems like a more recent phenomenon, last couple months
word. man, if only joel knew about this place. he could have hidden clemtine here safely.
Joke from the 80's:
What's round, yellow, slimy, and kills you?

i'm gonna guess 80's jokes
your joke makes me want to feed alligator heads to a ghost man.
go interwebz, fly faster!
I'd prefer to have one with a min pac-man joystick. Then if I carried it in my pocket, people wouldn't ever ask me whether I was circumcised or not (not that people do).
In the last picture on the source article the right button says "fire". Since when can pacman "fire" anything? He should fire proton-pack beams out of his mouth. That'd be cool.
very very interesting,
Thanks,
