Atariboy2600 Posted June 28, 2022 Share Posted June 28, 2022 Welp it's official. You knew AtGames F**KED it up so badly on the Ms.Pac-Man rights so much so that Namco will go as far as replacing Ms.Pac-Man to Pac-Mom right down to her looks from the 1999 Playstation 3D model to the new Pac-Man World Re-Pac model.

MrBeefy Posted July 1, 2022 Share Posted July 1, 2022 Well she's been Miss long enough. Pac-Man should just put a ring on it. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrMaddog Posted July 1, 2022 Share Posted July 1, 2022 (edited) They already replaced Ms. Pac-Man with a younger trophy wife version who was introduced (named Pac-Marie *) when Bandai-Namco had their Pac-Man pop up shop, now she's called "Pac-Mom". Check out this "new" version of Pac-Land... Namco would rather retcon Ms. Pac-Man out of existance instead of paying any royalties to AtGames, who are now stuck with a useless IP they can't release (due to the Pac-Man name in Ms. Pac-Man). Talk about a messy legal divorce! Edited July 1, 2022 by MrMaddog * Ok, so according to Pac-Man Wiki Pac-Marie 'is' Ms. Pac-Man but with a different name & look to avoid AtGame's trademark. This gets more weirder... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DavidD Posted July 11, 2022 Share Posted July 11, 2022 Interestingly enough, the character Ms. Pac-Man is still in Pac-Man Museum, which was just released. I assume Namco forgot about it... She's in the credits sequence for the "console" (PSP) version of Pac-Man Arrangement. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+frankodragon Posted July 11, 2022 Share Posted July 11, 2022 Maybe give her some hair like in the Hanna-Barbera adaptation? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Astro Rabby Posted November 23, 2022 Share Posted November 23, 2022 (edited) Gotta feel for Pac...Divorce is never easy. Maybe he was jealous her Atari version blew his out of the water :X I love Pac-Man World but this alone makes me wanna skip it almost. AtGames is a menace to retro gaming.

NeonSpaceBeagle Posted November 23, 2022 Share Posted November 23, 2022 Just picked up the remake. I'm liking it. It got too hard for me after a while tho. I'm a huge fan of ms.pacman even have a tattoo of her. They made the new Ms PACman old and dowdy looking, not a fan at all of her new look. Do better Pacman you got money.
