SteveW Posted April 7, 2004 Share Posted April 7, 2004 I thought Jag Mania was a Pac Mania clone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kevin242 Posted April 7, 2004 Share Posted April 7, 2004 CD32 or PCFX I don't know... but I don't remember a pac man on either of these. the amigacd32 had plenty of pacman conversions. The best one is called Super Pac Man.. this version was so cool that one of the "fruits" was a gun you could use to blow away the ghosts. kvn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Avid Fan Posted April 8, 2004 Share Posted April 8, 2004 Was there a master system one? I'm pretty sure there's some kind of Pac-man on Gamegear, but what about the master system? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kialan Posted April 8, 2004 Share Posted April 8, 2004 Was there a master system one? I'm pretty sure there's some kind of Pac-man on Gamegear, but what about the master system? There is definitely a Pac-Man for Game Gear, as I bought it when it came out. It's decent. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ubersaurus Posted April 8, 2004 Share Posted April 8, 2004 Was there a master system one? I'm pretty sure there's some kind of Pac-man on Gamegear, but what about the master system? Pac-Mania is on SMS. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ApolloBoy Posted April 8, 2004 Share Posted April 8, 2004 Was there a master system one? I'm pretty sure there's some kind of Pac-man on Gamegear, but what about the master system? Yeah, there's Pac-Mania and Ms. Pac-Man for the SMS. @Tempest: Yes, there's a regular Pac-Man for the VIC-20. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

raindog Posted April 8, 2004 Share Posted April 8, 2004 Don't know about the VIC-20 though Vic-20 had Ms. Pac-Man, but I'm not sure about regular old Pac-Man. The Vic-20 did have Pac-Man (I assume it was by Atarisoft, I've only ever played the ROM) as well as Commodore's own "Jelly Monsters" which, while it appeared to share some code with Pac-Man, was probably the best home version of Pac-Man out for any system at that point (sorry, never liked the Atari 8-bit/C64/Colecovision one, took too long to run across the bottom of the maze....)

Balloon Fight Posted April 8, 2004 Share Posted April 8, 2004 It didn't come out for the R-zone or the Virtual Boy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jess Ragan Posted April 8, 2004 Share Posted April 8, 2004 The Saturn is one of the few mainstream systems that got boned out of a Pac-Man conversion. See, Namco designed games exclusively for the Playstation when it was first released... and by the time it branched out to other consoles, the Saturn was long dead in the United States and on its way out in Japan. So yes, Virginia, there ARE major consoles out there which never felt the warm caress of a Pac-Man game. Oh well. At least the Saturn got Space Invaders.

Tempest Posted April 8, 2004 Share Posted April 8, 2004 Even the Neo Geo had one! Sorta... http://www.klov.com/game_detail.php?letter...=A&game_id=6811 I don't know if anyone has actually claimed to own this game, but it was supposedly a homebrew of some type.

Vic George 2K3 Posted April 9, 2004 Share Posted April 9, 2004 If we limit the discussions to legitimate Pac-Man translations and NOT playalikes or sequels, the number of systems that have or had a legitimate Pac-Man game would be somewhat lower.

liquid_sky Posted April 9, 2004 Share Posted April 9, 2004 the neo geo pocket color has a very good translation of pac-man Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrisbid Posted April 9, 2004 Share Posted April 9, 2004 thank gawd the game.com didnt get a port of PacMan, it did however get a port of Williams Arcade Classics, and it truly is the worst renditions of Defender, Robotron, Sinistar, and Joust you will ever play Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't forget Cosmic Cruncher. I still have my original cartridge. I believe one of the better Pac-Man clones I've every played...And that is on a Vic-20 with a *monochrome* monitor at the time. Via Vice, I can relive those memories again. It's actually funny for me to play the game in color though - I actually like to switch to monochrome mode.

TheGrandPubaa Posted April 10, 2004 Share Posted April 10, 2004 Wait, the Jaguar DID have a homebrew Pacman game. I forget the name...Ah, JagMania. It's a PacMania clone. Matthias Domin made it. http://jaguar.holyoak.com/shareware.html has info. So, does that count? *edit: Now that I look back, somebody already mentioned that one. Cripes. I gotta learn to read the posts better...* Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jhd Posted April 10, 2004 Share Posted April 10, 2004 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. I am fairly certain that the Tandy CoCo/Dragon 32 never received an official/licensed port of Pac Man, though there were several clones. If memory serves, the Coco had officially licensed ports of Zaxxon, Pooyan, Frogger (I think), and Demon Attack. There were tons of clones of popular games, of course, some very good ports.

They were really pushing their luck I can't find a single Vic-20 shrine with screenshots around the web, so I can't post a screenshot of either one, and my archive of the last TOSEC Vic-20 flood is on an unlabeled CD somewhere - feel like posting a screenshot or two?

Saikyo Posted April 10, 2004 Share Posted April 10, 2004 Dragon 32 had a pac man clone called called Racerball and yes the Dragon32 did indeed have Pac-Man Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AtariDude Posted April 10, 2004 Share Posted April 10, 2004 The Jaguar was a pretty sophisticated system for its time so making an exact PacMan like game would seem to be a waste of the system. Something like PacMan world might have gone well though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
