How Much Have You Spent on Pac-Man?

[sandmountainslim]

Over the years how much do you think you have spent on Pac-Man?

 

Of course I don't have any idea how many quarters I put in the machines back in the olden times but I know I have spent the following and this is just counting the original game not Ms. Pac or any of the sequels.

 

 

3 Downloads to different Verizon phones of Pac at around 7 dollars each

 

3 dollars for a used NES Pac Man cartridge

 

10 bucks for a Pac cart for the original Game Boy

 

20 bucks from the AA Store for Pac Man Arcade

 

 

Very likely a couple hundred dollars dropped in arcades playing it back in the 80's. I didn't count any money for the Atari Pac Man cart I have because it came with my 2600 when I recieved it for my birthday.

 

What about you?

Hey Fonzie,

 

I don't as much as I used to. But I always like to give it a go on Xbox Live when I have a chance.

I say a good 10-15 minutes each time i'm on.

Way too much and you would think i would be a decent Pac-Man player after spending all of these years with it but no such luck.

[nester]

I don't think I've ever played the arcade version of Pac-Man, although I have spent countless dollars playing Ms. Pac-Man. I do however have Pac-Man for 2600, 5200, NES, Game Boy, and Playstation.

[Atarifever]

Not sure which I have bought new and which I have bought used, but I have (or have had) it on 2600, NES, GBA, 7800, and Gamecube. I will probably download it on the Wii this Christmas.

 

Once you throw in any Pacman game it's a much longer list, including Pacman World games, PacMan Wolrd Rally, and any Ms. Pacman games I have ever come across. And then there's the ton of quarters to Ms. Pacman machines. And some Pacman merchandise. Oh, and I think my wife has me the PacMan Coleco tabletop for Christmas.

[Crazy Climber]

Including the arcade and consoles, Thousands

[NE146]

Holy cow.. I spent oodles on the arcade game. And just off the top of my head

 

Atari 2600 version: $30-$40

Atari 5200 version: $30-$40

Famicom Cart (bought before I had an NES): I think about $30

NES Cart: About $30

 

Various Namco Collections (PSX, PSP, 360, etc.) maybe $150-$200 total

 

And who knows what else.. (e.g. Adventures of Pacman on the SNES,), etc.

 

So, a little bit of dough

[Christophero Sly]

Less than $100.

Thats sad. They actually a Super Pac Man at the school I went to a few years back.

[Vic George 2K3]

Don't bother counting, but it certainly was worth every penny.

I really love Pac-Man games. I've been quite tempted to get the Xbox 360 for the Championship Edition (plus Geometry Wars and Defender), but bills keep my money going elsewhere, and the 2600 and 800 divert any spare money at this time.

[Dauber]

Hmm.....I have all the "official" Pac-Man games for the Atari 2600 -- got those as presents when they came out...

 

But...let's see....

 

Ms. Pac-Man for the 7800 -- I'm pretty sure that came with it when I bought it a couple of years ago; the console plus all the games that came with it cost me about $30...

 

Pac-Man Arcade for 2600 -- think I paid $20 for that...

 

Pac-Man Collection! for 7800 -- [am I the only one who notices the exclamation point in the title?] -- whatever the cost was when it first came out.

 

Pac-Man and Ms. Pac-Man for iPod -- $5 each

 

I too have purchased Ms. Pac-Man three times for cell phones; I'm gonna round that off to $20.

 

Also bought Pac-Man for my second cell phone; probably cost $5. Super Pac-Man for my current cell phone, I think $6.

 

Namco Museum Vol. 1 for PSX -- I bought this for something like $4 at GameStop a few years ago...

 

Really, all the Pac-Man games I've spent money on, despite being a really major Pac-Man fan, really isn't all that much! Thank God for Christmas and birthdays.
