The Cocktail and Upright versions come with classic games including “Space Invaders,” “Defender” and “Pac-Man.”
I love me some PlayStation, but the controller leaves my high score less than worthy of the time it takes to punch in my initials.
Game Cabinets Inc., a manufacturer of classic arcade games, recently released the Stinger Plus, a joystick controller that has a full computer inside.
“Anything you can do on your home computer you can do through this joystick on your TV,” says David Flagg, president of Game Cabinets Inc. That includes surfing the Internet and having fun with online gambling, using Microsoft Windows Media Center Edition, loading in PC games and using its DVR function, he says, adding that it also has a DVD drive.
The unit’s control panel—which is 28.5 inches wide by 13.75 inches deep by 5 inches high—has controls specifically designed for those classic games. “It can also be your media center and gaming center,” Flagg says.
It’s not as cheap as a PS3, but it’s almost as portable. “You can unplug it and bring to your friend’s house,” Flagg adds. Contact them for pricing info.

Thanks for the tidbit, Andrew!
I checked with the company on the Price already, and I don’t want to post it here, but they are more than happy to tell you if you email them. I will say that it is easily 3x more expensive than the Stinger unit. The guy I talked to is named David, he’s a great guy.
There is a DVD slot!
