Basically it comes down to galaga and pac man are completely worthless to me other than nostalgia which doesn't last long. I'd rather pay the money and play the old nintendo games on my TV than on my computer. The games I would buy have weeks of gameplay. Like I said, I had ms pac man, galaga and a host of other classic namco arcade games legally on my computer.
And they just aren't fun enough to pay $5 for. I bought a cd w/ about 30 namco games for $15 in the bargain bin and it wasn't worth it considering I only played it for a couple hours and was bored. I was sick of those simple arcade games when I was 8 years old, let alone now. No way those games are worth $5 alone. I would however pay $5 for SMB3 or $10 for Yoshi's Island or SFII. I know I'd get something for my money.
