Pacman, Mortal Kombat, Donkey Kong and the legendary Space Invaders... The old pixelated arcade games are suddenly cool again and twenty and thirty-somethings are abandoning the Wii in droves to make the hi score. Video gaming doesn't have to be an anti-social activity – why not make your next party an Old School Video Game theme?
