PacMan-is there really any platform it didn't come out on?

Recommended Posts

I was thinking and I can't think of any systems that haven't had some sort of Pac Man franchise game! Tell me if I am wrong but here is my list:

 

Atari 2600: Pac Man, Ms. Pac Man, Pac Man Jr.

 

Atari 5200: Pac Man, Ms. Pac Man, Super Pac Man

 

Atari 7800: Ms. Pac Man

 

Atari Lynx: Ms. Pac Man, PacLand

 

Intellvision: Pac Man

 

Colecovision: Is there a pacman for colecovision?

 

NES: Pac Man

 

Gameboy: Pac Man

 

Super NES: Ms. Pac Man

 

Sega Genesis: Pacmania, maybe others

 

N64: Namco Museum (has pacman)

 

Sega Saturn:uh I dont know

 

Ps1: Pac Man World

 

Ps2: Pac Man World 2

 

Sega Dreamcast: Ms. Pac Man's Maze Madness

 

Gamecube: Pac Man World, Pac Man Vs.

 

Xbox: Pac Man World

 

and I've seen on it on the Neo Geo as well. OK OK I'm not sure if there is a Colecovision PacMan and I know there is no Jaguar one but what else?

Some of the more obscure systems don't have a Pacman game, like Adventurevision and Microvision.

 

I don't think there's a Pacman or Pacman-like game for the Vectrex or Jaguar out of the mainstream systems.

Ms. Pac-Man's Maze Madness on the Dreamcast.

 

And PacLand on the TurboGraphx-16/PC Engine.

there's a homebrew pac-man and a proto pac-man on the colecovision.

 

That neo geo one is a homebrew that I don't think ever got finished.

O2, Fairchild, EmersonArcadia2001, Bally/Astrocade, TI99/4A, Timex/Sinclair...

I don't think that any of those had a Pacman game (tho some had similar ones).

Atarisoft didn't do Pac-Man for the TI99/4A ? :?

 

Weird.

The Astrocade has Muncher which is Pacman. There is a version of Muncher that was released under the Pacman name.

Atarisoft did make Pac-Man for the TI Home Computer.

 

I always liked Munch Man better. :D

 

 

 

 

There's a homebrew Pac-Man on Nuon DVD players.

Indeed, they did.

The AmstradCPC464 and upwards had some pacman like games

and the ZX Spectrum also had some similar games!

 

i dont recall what they were called but i know that there was muncher on both systems

but this one was made by bubble bus

is that the same makers as the muncher you mention? or is it different?

Vectrex Pac-man = Clean Sweep ;)

Is it a licensed version of Pacman? I dunno if he was referring to just clones of the game :ponder:

Hell no! :P Just a clone, although the idea of bank robbers blowing up a vault and the money's scattered everywhere was a pretty original idea.

O2--KC Munchkin (close enough that Atari sued

Arcadia 2001--Cat Trax (okay, not so close)

He did say Pac-man or Pac-man like. I believe Clean Sweep would be classified as Pac-man like.

Not to mention that it's the only video game ever sponsored by a chain of liquor stores. :)

 

Did Mr. Boston's sell the Vectrex or something? Was there a reason behind this illogical marketing scheme. Why plug a game that has nothing to do with your product on an uncommon system? I would've called up Sega and gotten my logo on Tapper. :)

EmersonArcadia2001

 

The Arcadia did have Gobbler and Super Gobbler. Both were very unlicensed Pac-Man clones. Although neither game was released in the US.

I think all of the later 8 bit micros (including the Spectrum, Amstrad, C64) had at least official conversions of Pacmania and Pacland. This also goes for the 16 bits (ST and Amiga).

Don't know about the VIC-20 though, or the Tandy CoCo/Dragon 32, or the Oric 1/ Oric Atmos.

 

Damn, there were too many computers! I'm sitting here wondering if there were Pacman games on the Jupiter Ace or Forth NewBrain - see how you've made me sick in my mind?!? :D

 

As far as unofficial clones go, EVERY system had a PacMan - they'd be fools not to!

Vic-20 had Ms. Pac-Man, but I'm not sure about regular old Pac-Man.
