Pac-Man Pyjamas Mens Arcade Game Over Black T Shirt & Loungewear Joggers Pjs

Product Information

Namco has regularly attempted to update and expand the Pac-Man concept. Sometimes this has worked (scrolling platformers Pac-Land and Pac in Time, and the isometrically viewed Pac-Mania); sometimes it really hasn’t (risible party game Pac-Man Fever and mystifying off-road driving sim Pac-Man World Rally). French street artist Invader has created several mosaic works featuring the Pac-Man character and ghosts, notably in Paris and Bilbao. The success of Pac-Man inspired US distributor Bally Midway to create a series of mostly identical sequels: Ms Pac-Man, Pac-Man Plus, Jr Pac-Man, Baby Pac-Man (which added a mini pinball table under the monitor) and Professor Pac-Man. The game features short animated sequences between levels, showing Pac-Man being chased by the ghosts. This was one of the first examples of a non-interactive video game “cutscene”. AVAILABLE IN VARIETY OF ADULT SIZES - The retro pyjamas set comes in sizes; small, medium, large, x-large and xx-large offering a comfortable and regular men’s fit made for ultimate comfort.

In his book Trigger Happy, writer Steven Poole suggested Pac-Man was a precursor to survivor horror games such as Resident Evil and Silent Hill due to its confined, maze-like map, supernatural enemies and emphasis on evasion.

It is impossible to score higher than that because of a bug in the game that turns the screen to gibberish on the 256th screen. In 2012, Pac-Man was one of 14 video games brought into the collection at MoMA in New York and displayed in its architecture and design gallery. Ms Pac-Man is widely considered a better game than Pac-Man, due to the more varied maze design and improved ghost AI. Japanese toy manufacturer Tomy made a famously beautiful, handheld Pac-Man game in the shape of an enormous yellow blob with an LCD display. This advert for the device is quite a rush.

For his spring/summer 2009 collection, fashion designer Giles Deacon dressed the models in gigantic Pac-Man helmets and had dots painted along the runway. Pac-Man was a major element in the appalling Adam Sandler comedy Pixels, with Toru Iwatani getting a cameo as an arcade repairman. But let’s just forget about that, shall we? Pac-Man manufacturer Namco installed the first machine in a movie theatre in Shibuya, Tokyo, on 22 May 1980.The movie also featured preview footage of Super Pac-Man, Namco’s official sequel to the original game. In 1999, Billy Mitchell became the first person to obtain a perfect Pac-Man score of 3,333,360, eating every dot, power pill, ghost and bonus on every level without losing a single life. However, Mitchell was later accused of cheating by video game records supervisor Twin Galaxies. The record was equalled by David Race in 2012. Professor Pac-Man was a quiz game depicting Pac-Man in a mortar board and glasses. It was not a success.
