Exhibit 10.1

AMENDMENT NO. 2 TO AMENDED AND RESTATED U.S. RECEIVABLES PURCHASE AGREEMENT<Page>
                                                                    EXHIBIT 10.2

                    SETTLEMENT AGREEMENT AND GENERAL RELEASE

     THIS SETTLEMENT AGREEMENT AND GENERAL RELEASE (this "Agreement") is entered
into by and between KENNETH J. FEDESNA ("Employee") and MIDWAY GAMES INC. (the
"Company" or "Employer").

         WHEREAS, the Company terminated the employment of Employee without
cause on June 11, 2004;

         WHEREAS, disputes have arisen between Employee and the Company
pertaining to the termination of Employee's employment by the Company, including
without limitation with respect to the Executive Employment Agreement between
Employee and the Company dated June 1, 1999 (the "Employment Agreement");

         WHEREAS, Employer and Employee, each denying any wrongdoing or
liability whatsoever, desire to sever their employment relationship and to
settle all actual and potential disputes.

         NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and promises herein,
and for other good and valuable consideration, the sufficiency of which is
hereby acknowledged:

         1. TERMINATION. Employee's employment with the Company shall terminate
effective June 11, 2004 (the "Termination Date"). The Employment Agreement shall
be deemed to have terminated as of the Termination Date and, notwithstanding
anything to the contrary therein, no provisions thereof shall survive such
termination other than Section 9 thereof (headed "Confidentiality Agreement")
and those portions of Section 10 thereof (headed "Invention Disclosure") that by
their nature survive the termination of the Employment Agreement.

     2. COMPENSATION TO EMPLOYEE. For settlement purposes only and provided this
Agreement is final and irrevocable under Section 7 hereof, the Company agrees:

         (a) to pay Employee Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($500,000) upon this
Agreement becoming final and irrevocable under Section 7 hereof;

         (b) provided that Employee has not breached his obligations under
Section 3(b) or 3(c) below or Section 9 of the Employment Agreement, and
provided that no "Raiding" (as defined below) has occurred on or before June 30,
2005, to pay Employee Four Hundred Seventy-Five Thousand Dollars ($475,000) on
June 30, 2005;

         (c) to reimburse Employee for health care benefits for himself and his
immediate family as if Employee continued to be a participant in the Company's
"Exec-U-Care" program through June 30, 2007, regardless of whether Employee is
participating in COBRA, a subsequent employer's health care plan, or private
health insurance (for example, Employee shall be reimbursed for premiums paid
for participation in COBRA);

         (d) to provide Employee with Four Hundred Thousand Dollars ($400,000)
in additional life insurance coverage, payable to such beneficiary as Employee
shall designate from time to time (in such form and manner as the Company and
Employee shall determine as appropriate in order to minimize the income tax
consequences of such coverage to Employee), through June 30, 2007;

<Page>

         (e) that all options to purchase the Company's common stock held by
Employee that are out-of-the-money on the Termination Date (the "OTM Options")
shall, without further action on the part of the Company or Employee, be
modified, effective on the date preceding the Termination Date, as follows: (i)
all unvested OTM Options shall become vested on the Termination Date, and (ii)
the period during which any OTM Option may be exercised shall continue from the
Termination Date until the earlier of (x) June 30, 2007 or (y) the original
expiration date of such option (for example, if a ten year option had been
granted to Employee on October 30, 1996, the original expiration date of such
option would be October 29, 2006) (an out-of-the-money stock option shall be any
option with respect to which the option exercise price is equal to or greater
than the closing price of the Company's common stock on the New York Stock
Exchange on the Termination Date); and

         (f) that 37,500 of the 50,000 options to purchase the Company's common
stock held by Employee under the Company's 2000 Non-Qualified Stock Option Plan
(such 37,500 options being the "ITM Options") shall, without further action on
the part of the Company or Employee, be modified, effective on the date
preceding the Termination Date, as follows: (i) the ITM Options shall become
vested on the Termination Date, and (ii) the period during which any ITM Option
may be exercised shall continue from the Termination Date until June 30, 2007
(the other 12,500 options held by Employee under the Company's 2000
Non-Qualified Stock Option Plan shall not be modified by this Agreement).

The Company acknowledges that it will report the payments set forth in Sections
2(a) and (b) and the proceeds from the "cashless exercise" of the ITM Options
and OTM Options as employee compensation on Form W-2 and accordingly, the
Company will be responsible for the employer portion of FICA and Medicare on
those payments. Employee and the Company acknowledge that (i) Employee has
submitted and/or intends to submit expense reports to the Company for expenses
incurred in connection with his employment with the Company and that Employee
shall be entitled to reimbursement of such expenses to the extent provided by
Company policy ("Reimbursements") and (ii) Employee shall be entitled to payment
for accrued vacation for the period January 1, 2004 through the Termination Date
(the "Vacation Pay") as required by law (which Employee acknowledges is not more
than two and one-half weeks' vacation).

         3.  OBLIGATIONS OF EMPLOYEE.  Employee agrees:

         (a) to reasonably assist the Company in controlling the costs for which
the Company will reimburse Employee under Section 2(c) above, including without
limitation by (i) properly electing continuation of health insurance coverage
for himself and his immediate family under and pursuant to COBRA, 29 U.S.C. ss.
1161 ET SEQ., and (ii) if Employee becomes employed before June 30, 2007,
participating (on behalf of himself and his immediate family) in such health
care plan(s) as such employer(s) make available to its employees as soon as
permitted by such plan(s);

         (b) that, from the Termination Date through June 30, 2005, he will not,
directly or indirectly, without the prior written consent of the Company, own,
manage, operate, join, control, participate in, perform any services for, invest
in, or otherwise be connected with, in any manner, whether as an officer,
director, employee, consultant, partner, investor or otherwise, any business
entity which is engaged in the design, importation, manufacture and/or sale of
home video games or any business entity which is engaged in any other business
in which the Company or any affiliate of the Company is engaged provided that
nothing in this Section 3(b) shall be deemed to prohibit Employee from investing
his funds in securities of a company if the securities of such company are
listed for trading on a national stock exchange or traded in the
over-the-counter market and Employee's holdings therein represent less than five
percent of the total number of shares or principal amount of other securities of
such company outstanding;

         (c) that, from the Termination Date through June 30, 2005, he will not,
directly or indirectly, without the prior written consent of the Company, induce
or influence, or seek to induce or influence, any person who is

                                       2
<Page>

engaged by the Company or any affiliate of the Company as an employee, agent,
independent contractor or otherwise, to terminate his employment or engagement,
nor shall Employee directly or indirectly, through any other person, firm or
corporation, employ or engage, or solicit for employment or engagement, or
advise or recommend to any other person or entity that such person or entity
employ or engage or solicit for employment or engagement, any person or entity
employed or engaged by the Company or any affiliate of the Company; and

         (d) that he will reasonably cooperate in the defense provided by the
Company in connection with its D&O Obligations (as defined below).

For purposes of Section 3(b) above, the Company acknowledges that the
coin-operated video game business will not be considered to be a business in
which the Company or any affiliate of the Company is engaged. "Raiding" shall be
defined as the hiring or engagement (as an employee, agent, independent
contractor or otherwise) of any Restricted Individual (as defined below) by any
Entity (as defined below) that Employee owns, manages, operates, joins,
controls, participates in, performs any services for, invests in, or otherwise
is connected with, in any manner, whether as an officer, director, employee,
consultant, partner, investor or otherwise, or by any affiliate of such an
Entity, regardless of whether Employee participated in such hiring or
engagement; provided that Employee shall not be deemed connected with an entity
for purposes of this definition if his sole relationship with such entity is the
investing of his funds in securities of such entity if the securities of such
entity are listed for trading on a national stock exchange or traded in the
over-the-counter market and Employee's holdings therein represent less than five
percent of the total number of shares or principal amount of other securities of
such entity outstanding. A "Restricted Individual" is an individual who is an
employee of the Company or its affiliates on June 12, 2004 and as of that date
had an annual base salary (before-tax cash compensation, excluding bonus awards,
amounts related to the exercise of options, contributions to employee benefit
plans, and other compensation not designated as regular salary) of $60,000 or
more. An "Entity" is any entity (whether a corporation, partnership, sole
proprietorship or otherwise) where such entity or any affiliate of such entity
is in the business of designing, developing, manufacturing, marketing,
advertising, promoting, distributing, selling or otherwise exploiting video
games for any platform (including, without limitation, home video game systems,
personal computers, portable game devices and systems, coin-operated video game
systems, other devices capable of game play, and on-line game services (whether
Internet-based; cable, satellite or other broadcast-based services; and private
network-based services, or otherwise, and whether on a subscription,
pay-per-play or other basis, and regardless of the device through which such
services are accessed), whether now known or hereafter devised).

         Employee acknowledges that the provisions of Sections 3(b) and 3(c)
above are reasonable and necessary for the protection of the Company. In the
event that any provision of Sections 3(b) or 3(c), including any sentence,
clause or part hereof, shall be deemed contrary to law or invalid or
unenforceable in any respect by a court of competent jurisdiction, the remaining
provisions shall not be affected, but shall, subject to the discretion of such
court, remain in full force and effect and any invalid and unenforceable
provisions shall be deemed, without further action on the part of the parties
hereto, modified, amended and limited to the extent necessary to render the same
valid and enforceable. Employee acknowledges and agrees that the business of the
Company is highly competitive and that violation of any of the covenants
provided for in Section 9 of the Employment Agreement or Sections 3(b) or 3(c)
of this Agreement would cause immediate, immeasurable and irreparable harm, loss
and damage to the Company not adequately compensable by a monetary award.
Accordingly, Employee agrees, without limiting any of the other remedies
available to the Company, that any violation of said covenants, or any one of
them, may be enjoined or restrained by any court of competent jurisdiction, and
that any temporary restraining order or emergency, preliminary or final
injunctions may be issued by any court of competent jurisdiction, without notice
and without bond. In the event any proceedings are commenced by the Company
against Employee for any actual or threatened violation of any of said covenants
and if the Company prevails in such litigation, then, Employee shall be liable
to the Company for, and shall pay to the Company, all

                                       3
<Page>

costs and expenses of any kind, including reasonable attorneys' fees, which the
Company may incur in connection with such proceedings.

         4. GENERAL RELEASE AND COVENANT NOT TO SUE. In consideration of the
promises contained herein, the adequacy of which is hereby acknowledged, and
other good and valuable consideration, Employee (on behalf of himself and his
heirs, executors, administrators, successors and assigns) irrevocably and
unconditionally releases and forever discharges and acquits the Company, any
affiliated or related companies, including, without limitation, parent
companies, subsidiaries and divisions, and all of their respective shareholders,
directors, officers, employees, agents, attorneys, successors and assigns
(collectively "Releasees"), from any and all claims, charges, liabilities,
debts, demands, grievances and causes of action of whatsoever kind, at law or in
equity, whether known or unknown, suspected or unsuspected, or otherwise,
including but not limited to claims relating to or arising out of Employee's
employment and termination of employment, claims for breach of employment
contract, claims for attorneys' fees, claims under the Age Discrimination in
Employment Act, Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and 1991, as amended,
The Fair Labor Standards Act, The Family and Medical Leave Act, the Americans
with Disabilities Act, the Employee Retirement Income Security Act ("ERISA"),
the Worker Adjustment and Retraining Notification Act ("WARN"), the Illinois
Wage Payment and Collection Act, the Illinois Human Rights Act, claims of
retaliation, claims for pain and suffering and mental and emotional distress,
wrongful discharge claims, severance pay claims, accrued vacation, bonuses,
salary and benefits, or other claims under any federal, state or local
constitution, statute, or common law, which Employee has, had or may have
against the Releasees arising from or relating to acts or omissions through the
date hereof, or involving the continuing effects of any acts or omissions which
occurred through the date hereof. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
herein, Employee reserves the right to apply for unemployment compensation
relating to his termination of employment by the Company and the right to
receive the Reimbursements and Vacation Pay. For purposes of clarification, the
Company acknowledges that its obligations to defend and hold harmless Employee
arising from his election and service as an officer and director of the Company
("D&O Obligations") continue hereafter unaffected by this Agreement.

         Employee acknowledges and agrees that the nature, materiality, extent
and results of the claims compromised and released by this Agreement may not now
all be known or anticipated by him. However, it is the intention of the parties
hereto that this Agreement shall be effective as a bar to each and every claim,
charge, liability, offset, demand, grievance, debt and cause of action (other
than for the Reimbursements and Vacation Pay) that Employee may have against the
Company. Employee further acknowledges and agrees that he may hereafter discover
facts different from or in addition to those now known, suspected or believed to
be true with respect to such claims, demands or causes of action and agrees that
this release will be and remain effective in all respects notwithstanding any
such differences or additional facts.

         Employee covenants and agrees not to sue, to make a claim or demand, to
commence or maintain, or assist or otherwise participate (except, as required by
law, to give testimony), in any action or proceeding of any kind in any court,
before any government agency or in any other forum, or to accept any money,
benefit, or other relief from any proceeding which would be precluded by this
release, whether brought directly by Employee or brought by any other person,
agency or entity, and agrees to indemnify the Company against all liability,
costs and expenses and attorney's fees in the event he breaches this release and
covenant not to sue.

         5. DISPUTES. In the event of litigation or arbitration between the
parties arising out of or relating to this Agreement, the prevailing party will
be entitled to recover court or arbitration costs and reasonable fees of
attorneys, accountants and expert witnesses incurred by such a party in
connection with the action or arbitration.

         6. RETURN OF COMPANY PROPERTY. Employee will promptly return all keys,
key cards, identification badges, records, papers, files, blueprints, documents,
computers, computer disks, software, data stored on any

                                       4
<Page>

computer or other storage device, and other materials or property belonging to
Company or its employees to the Company; except that Employee may keep the
Company's laptop computer in his possession as of the Termination Date provided
that he cooperates with the Company to make a Company backup copy of all
information stored therein as of the Termination Date, does not delete any such
information without the Company's consent, does not transfer to another person
or dispose of such computer without the Company's consent, and, if requested by
the Company, deletes all information of the Company stored therein.

         7. NOTICE OF EMPLOYEE RIGHTS; EFFECTIVE DATE. Employee has been advised
(a) that he has up to twenty-one (21) days to consider this Agreement; (b) that
the Agreement does not take effect until seven (7) days after signing and may be
revoked by him during that time period; (c) to consult an attorney before
signing this Agreement; and (d) that the Employee does not waive rights or
claims that may arise after the date the waiver is executed. This Agreement will
be effective eight (8) days after Employee signs it, provided he has not revoked
his Agreement during the seven day revocation period. If Employee does not sign
or if he timely revokes his Agreement, this Agreement will be null and void.
Revocation of this Agreement by Employee must be in writing and sent to Midway
Games Inc., 2704 W. Roscoe Street, Chicago, Illinois 60618, Attn: President.

         8. CONFIDENTIALITY. Employee and the Company agree that the fact and
terms of this Agreement are strictly confidential, and therefore, agrees that
from the date of presentment to Employee of this Agreement forward, neither
party shall disclose, permit or cause the disclosure of any information
concerning this Agreement to any third party, except that (a) Employee may
disclose (i) such information to his attorney, tax preparer and immediate family
members, provided they also agree to keep this Agreement and its terms
confidential and (ii) Sections 2(b) and 3 in confidence to a prospective
employer, and (b) the Company may disclose such information in confidence to its
attorneys and accountants and as required by the law or the order, requirement,
or request of a court or government authority or stock exchange.

         9. ENTIRE AGREEMENT. With respect to the matters set forth herein, this
Agreement represents the entire agreement between Employee and the Company and
supersedes all prior agreements or understandings, if any, between the parties,
except for Sections 9 and 10 of the Employment Agreement, the provisions of
which Employee acknowledges are designed to survive the termination of his
employment. Employee acknowledges that except for the explicit provisions of
this Agreement, no promises or representations of any kind have been made to
Employee by the Company, its attorneys or any of the Releasees, to induce him to
enter into this Agreement. No modification of this Agreement can be made except
in writing and signed by Employee and an authorized representative of the
Company.

         10. CHOICE OF LAW; SAVINGS PROVISION. This Agreement shall be governed,
interpreted and construed under the laws of the State of Illinois without regard
to its conflict of law principles. The parties agree that any dispute or
litigation arising in whole or in part hereunder shall, at the option of
Employer, be litigated in any state or federal court of competent subject matter
jurisdiction sitting in Illinois, to the jurisdiction of which and venue in
which Employee irrevocably consents. If any provision of this Agreement shall be
invalidated or refused enforcement by any court of competent jurisdiction, the
provisions not invalidated or refused enforcement shall remain in full force and
effect.

         11. NO ATTORNEY'S FEES. Employee waives his right, if any, to
attorney's fees relating to matters released in this Agreement. The Company will
pay all expenses incurred by it, and Employee will bear all expenses incurred by
him, in the negotiation and preparation of this Agreement.

         12. COUNTERPARTS. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts, each
of which may be signed separately and may be enforceable as an original, but all
of which together shall constitute but one agreement.

         13. NON-DISPARAGEMENT PLEDGE. The parties agree that it would be
counterproductive and

                                       5
<Page>

undesirable for either to communicate in a derogatory manner to third parties
about one another, and each party pledges not do so, unless required by law. The
Company will refer all inquiries from prospective employers concerning Employee
to the Company's Human Resources Department, which will respond to such
inquiries by providing the dates of employment, position held and compensation
of Employee. Employee will not allege or claim that he was discriminated against
or otherwise make any derogatory comments about the Company in any manner.

         14. NON-ADMISSION; FOR SETTLEMENT ONLY. Neither this Agreement, the
decision to enter into this Agreement, nor anything done pursuant to this
Agreement shall be construed to be an admission or evidence of any wrongdoing or
liability by the Company, such wrongdoing and liability being expressly denied.
Nor will this Agreement, its existence or its terms be admissible in any
proceeding other than a proceeding to enforce the terms of this Agreement or as
an affirmative defense to any attempt to breach it. This Agreement is entered
into for settlement purposes only and represents the compromise of disputed
claims, actual or potential, which Employee has or may believe he has.

         15. REPRESENTATIONS & WARRANTIES BY ALL PARTIES. Each of the parties
represents and warrants, as to himself, herself or itself that (a) he, she or it
has the capacity, full power and authority to enter into this Agreement, (b) the
individual signing on behalf of the corporate party is authorized to do so, (c)
he, she or it has not assigned, encumbered or in any manner transferred all or
any portion of the claims covered by this Agreement, (d) there are no other
charges, complaints, suits, arbitrations or other claims or proceedings pending
between the parties in any court, before any agency, or in any forum, and (e) no
other person, agency or entity has any right, title or interest in any of the
claims covered by this Agreement.

         16. SUCCESSORS & ASSIGNS. This Agreement shall be binding upon and
