Check Target first. I want to say I saw it there for $14.95...

 

My only interest in these things is in ripping them apart to make 7800 sticks out of them, at this point, so that is still too much for me... but, a decent price if you're interested in it for what it was designed for.

This sounds like something I'd be interested in if the versions are as good as Ms. Pac-Man was on the last gamekey version.

 

Are there any online retailers selling this? A quick search through the tv games section of several sites didn't show anything that would help, this market seems to be dying quick so I don't think many will carry it.

I'm not sure why... but I've constantly seen new plug 'n plays in the retail stores that never seem to show up online. I don't know why they don't sell them both ways. So I do a Toys 'R Us, Target, KB Toys tour every once in a while to see what's new. :grin:

just a heads up to everyone i was at our local toys r' us today and i stopped a new pac-man plug n play it has pac-man,super pac-man,pac-man plus,and pac n pal.its was $25.00 am going to go and pick it up hopefully this weekend.

 

Is this for real? I couldn't find any info on it online. I would be surprised that Namco would allow Pac-man Plus, as it was the game that broke the camel's back in dealing with Bally Midway, and Namco never officially recognized it as their game. Do you have a link to this product?

Wow, thanks- I've been out of the loop lately, and didn't see this new plug and play at the stores recently. There's no mention of it on the TVgames website, either. I'm still surprised that Namco gave it's blessing to include Pac-man Plus. If I remember the story correctly, Midway went ahead and produced Pac-man Plus on it's own without Namco approving it, thus dissolving their business partnership. Correct me if I'm wrong...

Maybe this is Namco's way of flipping the bird back to Midway... "We own Pac Man, and so we're going to release YOUR Pac Man Plus on OUR authorized Jakks collection, and not pay YOU, Bally, a dime for it... sue us... let's find out who REALLY owns this game you made without authorization"...

I got one of these Super Pac plug n plays. It's pretty neat. And it's a treat just to have Super Pac on it, arcade perfect or not. And it's a whole lot easier to get than Namco Museum Vol 2 for the PS1 or Ms. Pac Man for the GBC.

 

Interestingly, I find it just as difficult to control Super Pac with the plug n play's 4 directional stick as I do with the Atari 5200 controller. It's kind of funny how bad I suck at it, because the only time I ever got to play the arcade game, I scored 170K.
