PacMan *Oldschool*

Pac-Man is an arcade game developed by Namco and licensed for distribution in the USA by Midway, first released in Japan in 1979.[1][2] Immensely popular from its original release to the present day, Pac-Man is universally considered as one of the classics of the medium, virtually synonymous with video games, and an icon of 1980s popular culture. Upon its release, the game became a social phenomenon[3] that sold a bevy of merchandise and also inspired an animated television series and a Top 40 pop single.[4]

When Pac-Man was released, most arcade video games in North America were primarily space shooters such as Space Invaders and Defender or Asteroids; the most visible minority were sports games (mostly derivative of PONG). Pac-Man succeeded by creating a new genre and appealing to both males and females.[1] Pac-Man is often credited with being a landmark in video game history, and is among the most famous arcade games of all time.[5] The character also appears in over 30 officially licensed games and sequels, as well as in numerous unauthorized clones and bootlegs.
