Pac & Pal is an arcade game that was released by Namco on July 30, 1983 exclusively in Japan. It runs on Namco Super Pac-Man hardware, and the object of the game is for Pac-Man to eat all the items before he is caught by the ghosts. Most of the items are fruits from the original Pac-Man game, with a few new additions. Their value varies, starting with cherries at 50 points, and ending with keys from 700 to 5000 points. The items had to first be unlocked by turning over cards distributed around the maze (instead of eating keys like in Super Pac-Man). Very few cabinets still exist today, and this is possibly one of the rarest Pac-Man titles to find in playable format outside Japan.
Mario Bros. is an arcade game published by Nintendo and developed by Shigeru Miyamoto. The platform puzzle which first introduced Luigi to the world has both single and multiplayer action with two differing game types, but with the same objective. Crabs, turtles and fighter flies must be cleared out by jumping underneath the platform they sit on, then kicking them away. Each level is cleared when a set number of coins is collected. For the two player mode, the first to collect the set amount of coins wins.
A colorful platform game in which the player controls a long-tongued chameleon that must make around a series of single-screen, platform-strewn levels; stealing chicken eggs from their nests and being careful to avoid contact with angry chickens.
As well as walking along the platforms and poles, the chameleon can use its tongue to pull itself up to higher platforms; and to escape from any nearby chickens. Each level also has a number of bombs placed at various points; the chameleon can hit these with its tongue to send them crashing towards nearby chickens. The player must keep an eye out for projectiles thrown by the chickens, such as flashing eggs.
If the nesting eggs are left for too long, they will hatch into a baby chick. The player can eat the chick for bonus points, but if the chick is left alone for too long, it will grow into an adult chicken and start attacking the player.
A level is over once all of the eggs have been collected and all of the chickens killed.

Navigate the Robop character around a 3-D perspective playfield while shooting enemies and gathering items for points. Avoid the Inchworm since it will steal your hands!
Guide the insatiable Glob through corridors, up and down the elevators and through the side tunnels in his never-ending search for snacks. An assortment of crafty animals relentlessly pursue the Glob and fight him for control of the elevators. Kill them by sticking to the ceiling and dropping on them or just avoid them and munch a dozen different snacks to clear the 24 unique levels.
As a super cop you have limited time to find a bomb in a large building. You can ride elevators, escalators and climb ladders in the search.
There are assorted obstacles and bad guys to avoid or shoot -- "Killers" will shoot back. Nice death sequence where the bad guys escape on a helicopter while you go up the screen as an angel.
Find the bomb and the bad guys will surrender. Between levels there is bonus stage where you pick from various boxes to get a bomb, bonus stage over, or additional points.
Graphics are very blocky and crude, but quite large. The game looks like a variation of Elevator Action but with worse graphics! Music is terribly irritating and the overall game appears quite dated.
Razzmatazz is a lightgun arcade game developed by Sega Electronics in 1983. It apparently did not survive past testing, and was never ported to home platforms, though an Atari 2600 version by the name Bear Game was planned.
