Kurt_Woloch Posted February 17, 2019 Share Posted February 17, 2019 That's a great looking box. I think you took some wording from the flyer recently posted here. I just noticed that in the first paragraph of the box text, Ms. Pac-Man is mentioned while later she becomes Mrs. Pac-Man. So did they marry in between? I think the marriage of Pac-Man and Ms. Pac-Man is missing in the series... there's not even an intermission showing it. Hmm... I would have to think about a game concept for "The marriage of Pac-Man and Ms. Pac-Man", or in short, "Pac Wedding" :-) 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
imstarryeyed Posted February 17, 2019 Share Posted February 17, 2019 Mr and Mrs Pac Man in the series was the pinball game by the same name. Interesting pinball machine.. I would love to own one its quirky.. On topic.. I love the box it looks like it jumped right out of the era at that time! 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tschak909 Posted February 18, 2019 Share Posted February 18, 2019 Sorry, I need to ask a slightly tangental question, what box templates are you guys using?

imstarryeyed Posted February 19, 2019 Share Posted February 19, 2019 @Kosmic Stardust The maze is a strange set of those lights you see on the play field, when you score enough "moves" you can play the dots and move around trying to avoid the colored "ghost" its a bit primitive but it does work pretty well. I have to say Baby Pac Man in my opinion is a much better game but Mr and Mrs is a quirky fun pin. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shawn Posted February 19, 2019 Share Posted February 19, 2019 Mr and Mrs Pac Man in the series was the pinball game by the same name. Interesting pinball machine.. So is that a version which is just the pinball portion without the video game part? I smell a very easy second release from mostly the same code as Baby Pac if so. I know I'd play a pinball only Mr & Mrs. Pac. Another video of the game from the same person: 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kurt_Woloch Posted February 19, 2019 Share Posted February 19, 2019 Very easy? Well... it is a bit different from the pinball poirtion of Baby Pac. The table layout is different, it's more of a "full" pinball game, and it's not symmetric, unlike Baby Pac-Man, which is strictly symmetric, which the collision map of the Atari 7800 version takes advantage of. Then there's diagonal targets and power bumpers, both of which Baby Pac doesn't have. Here the round bumpers actually add some force to the ball.while in Baby Pac-Man the bumpers on the bottom just deflect the ball with the same force it came in. Then there's speech (how do you do that?) and the very simplified maze portion. It does reuse some of the sound effects of Baby Pac-Man though.

fluxit Posted February 25, 2019 Share Posted February 25, 2019 I made a 4-way 7800 arcade stick in honor of Baby Pac-Man's brilliantly successful completion. Note that this is a one-off, though if anyone else feels the desire to reproduce it, I'll provide tips. 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tangentg Posted February 28, 2019 Share Posted February 28, 2019 (edited) Holy crap I didn't think I would see a Baby Pacman with an actual pinball game in it for an Atari system! Thank you for making it happen! I haven't gotten the hang of the controls yet (it seems the ball always jumps back down the drain right after it's shot up and hit the rebound) but I was very excited to see the pinball part! The ghosts' movement seems faithful to the original since they seem to change directions without pattern there too, unlike in Pacman and Ms Pacman.

Spoken like someone else who has owned one It was amazing to me how much Baby Pac-Man ownership is not dissimilar to having, say, an older Alfa-Romeo - absolutely fantastic when they work, but if something goes wrong (which happens frequently enough with either one to be memorable), your weekend just took a nosedive into repairland. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just know that I will have to redo the chips soon and possibly the power supply too.. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
