Pac-Man is a very popular arcade game and was a favorite for those who grew up in the 1980s. Pac-Man was developed by Namco and first launched in Japan in 1979. From there it was licensed for distribution in the U.S. by Midway. Pac-Man has been extremely popular since its release in the United States up until present day. Not stopping with video games, merchandise, toys, television series and more were created around the very popular icon.

What made Pac-Man popular was at the time of its release, many of the arcade video games in the United States focused on space shooters such as Space Invaders, Asteroids, Defender and Pong. Pac-Man was unique as it appealed to both men, women, boys and girls. Pac-Man is a world-wide gaming icon and unmistakenly one of the most popular video arcade games of all time.

The original Pac-Man is by far the best version out there. Just playing it brings back many memories of when I was a child spending quarter after quarter on this game. I would sit for hours conquering level after level seeing how high I could get.
