Anyone have a one of those home arcade games from the 80's?

I'm a 52 year old teenager and I'm thinking I'd love to play all those 80's arcade games again, like Donkey Kong, Missile Command, Tempest, Joust, Defender, Centipede, etc. I'm also thinking I'd love to use my big screen tv instead of using the CRT cabinet.
Any of you guys know of a system or a website that has an all in one console with all the classics already loaded?

a multi game like you describe - a sit down one - a driving game - and 3 pinball machines.
my favorite is the combo with galaga, space invaders, pac man (several versions), frogger, centipede - etc etc.
it is my get away room.
if you need advice - hit me up.

got it set up a few days ago, but have yet to download the emulator. I will get some controllers for it also.
They have all the games you would ever want to play - the cartridges back in those days have very little memory, so they can be loaded onto a decent size system.

No, I'm not interested in games. We did have some of those at one time. My sons loved the TI-99 and all their games. When we heard they weren't going to make it anymore we bought an extra and it's never been out of the box. Guess we need to throw that puppy on eBay!
