First off don’t download it from the Japanese PlayStation store. Download it from the Hong Kong store. Why because the Arcade Cabinets only work with the Hong Kong version. So make a HK PSN account and search for a big N, it should be under New Releases still. Download it, but only play it under your own personal account, so the stuff you unlock can be used in Home.
There are 4 games to play, and since it’s a beta, only the first 2 stages are available. You can play Pac-Man, Galaga , Dig Dug, and Xevious. There are 4 unlockables for each game. I managed to get them all finally. It also unlocks things to decorate your pad, plus t-shirts, pants, and a hat.
A note though, in order for your guests to play the arcade cabinets, they need to have the HK Namco Museum Beta on their PlayStation 3. But when you play the games in Home, it actually launches the Namco Museum Beta application, but it takes you right to that game. I wish it was like the arcade cabinets in the bowling ally, where it just zooms into the screen and you play. But since this is a Beta, maybe the final release with support this. I hope they bring it to all the regions. It’s a great idea! Here is what they look like, click photos for a full size view.

Love the hat.
This is heartening to know. I’m sure all of the other arcade cabinet makers will follow suit when they hear the sales figures. My dream of having an asteroids arcade is one step closer to coming true.

If I’d be able to stay logged in in home, I’d give it a go. For now I’m just waiting for Sony to fix the most obvious bugs and annoyances (cfr. Connection issues)

Checked this out last night and it was cool. The arcade cabinet looks pretty good in my sterile Home apartment. I like the new shirt too.
Thanks for the tip.
