The legendary arcade game comes home in miniature form courtesy of Numskull, the UK-based company specializing in everything retro. It's a slick-looking machine, too, but how well does it play? Is it worth the premium price? Mr. Pacario discusses the machine and the game within, then ponders the company itself--will Numskull keep producing these tiny replicas, or is it likely to leave this niche industry behind?

Thanks to YouTube's DJMykah and Miles' Games for the excellent Bubble Bobble remixes. And lastly, kudos to Decktonic.com for the great opening/closing chiptune!
