Filling your man cave with retro arcade games is all well and good, but they take up a lot of space for something that only plays one game, and tend not to blend in so well. Both of these issues are resolved in these Arcade Game Tables (http://arcadetables.com.au/) ($3,000-$3,400). Available in Classic, Custom Classic, and modern Stealth models, these cocktail-style tables offer LCD screens, high-quality joysticks, buttons, and sound systems and built-in libraries of classic games.
For those who are interested, you can play Pacman or SpaceInvaders for free on that site.

The Arcade Tables are provided with a suite of 60 games. The software is pre-installed, and there’s no need for updates as they’ve been out of date for years! Just plug the machine into a standard power point - these are commercial grade machines requiring no software knowledge at all. Simply press one or two player start buttons and you're away! All your favourite Classics to choose from... Ms Pacman
Galaga
Frogger
Donkey Kong

may I recommend the Vision Racer VR3 (http://us.visionracer.com/) ($1,300). This dedicated racing rig features a fiberglass racing seat attached to a stainless steel frame, with pedal and gearshift mounts and a LCD and console stand.
*****HDTV, Logitech steering wheel, PS3, sound system, and, of course, games are excluded

or the ultimate gaming console:

Beer and gaming go together like Mario and Luigi, and the Arkeg (http://www.drinkngame.com/buy.html) ($4,000) offers up plenty of both. This arcade game-styled machine features a fully functioning kegerator in its belly, with room for a 5 gallon keg kept cool by a solid-state thermoelectric cooling system. In addition, it sports a gaming-ready PC, pre-loaded with 69 games such as Asteroids, Mortal Kombat II, and 1942. Other features include a 24-inch LCD with protective overlay, an authentic backlit marquee, a 2.1 sound system with powered sub, two complete arcade controllers and a trackball mounted in a custom aluminum panel, a side-mounted tap with interchangeable handle, and more.

I was looking into this for my cave - but figured 4-5G's could easily go to more toys for the cave and or the car.

So I bought a new projector and pool table.

I am currently looking for a new MegaTouch console to go on the bartop

If you want retro with free access google "MAME". Plays well on my Core 2 Duo with 4GB RAM. Hell you can play PAC-MAN and Double Dragon on your LCD TV, 50 inch.....just for kicks. If you are looking for Pinball machines try: http://www.dcamusements.com/pinballs_1.htm . Now that is mancave stuff. I do like the Keg thing up there though.........
