If you originally wanted a Pac-man, then get a working Pac-Man or Ms. Pacman where someone has already rebuilt the monitor. Buy a 60-in-1 PCB, a Pac cabinet to JAMMA adapter, and a switching power supply. Depending on the condition of the cabinet, you should be able to get all of this for around $600 depending on what's available in your area. If you have even rudimentary skills, you should be able to install this in about 30 minutes. And once you get it all set up go through the games and turn off the trackball games and any game that doesn't play right with a 4-way stick. The Pac cabinet JAMMA adapter can be configured to map P1 and P2 start buttons to button 2 and button 3 so there's no need to destroy or otherwise hack up your control panel. This whole process can be safely reversed in about 10 minutes to put it back to original. Do not buy a 60-in-1 that someone converted with a cheap LCD. The LCD adds display lag, and the 60-in-1 already adds input lag and frame skip. If you add all of those together you're going to wonder why you made the turn but your guy died anyway. Initially you'll chalk it up to being rusty at game x (let's say pacman) but you will soon realize that it's not you, it's the game. The original standard res. CRT monitor improves that experience.

Quoted from BoJo:

I wish a could find an original pacman or ms. pacman around here. A guy I work with wants a 60-1 and always asks me to keep an eye out for him since he knows I could do the conversion. Craigslist used to be polluted with them however now they are scarce and when one does come up for sale they want a ton for it.

Check the Facebook groups and you'll find one especially if you expand your search to the Ohio collectors group. There are a couple for sale now.
