The Version Comparison series only shows official versions of the games, so don't expect to see any clones, homebrews or hacks (although we could add it from time to time if we see fit). Anyway, if you like the video, we can make a separate one dedicated to unofficial versions in the future for our Clones Comparison series. If you know of any, don't hesitate to post it in the comments.

Which is your favorite version?

    I never knew some yellow slice of pizza can get this far!

    I can still remember when this was new, my aunt was working waitress at a restaurant, and she told me about this game. I didn't believe her till one day I took a ride with my uncle and my then baby cousin to her workplace, and I finally got to see and play it. I actually liked it quite well.

    this is such an interesting game, wish it got more recognition though. great comparison as always!
  • Fun fact: Only the international releases of Namco Museum Volume 2 for the PS1 featured Super Pac-Man, as the Japanese version instead featured Bomb Bee and Cutie Q. The arcade version has also appeared in other compilations, including plug and plays, and a version even appeared in Namco Museum Remix/Megamix.

    The J2ME Deluxe version reminds me of Pac-Mania. In the second season of the 80’s “Pac Man” cartoon, Super Pac Man was introduced. He could fly, have eye beams, and a big appetite. When using his Super Power Pellet no ghost could stop him, but he couldn’t stop himself afterwards. It was then up to Pac Man to use SPM’s “time warp space hole” to get SPM inside it (which then neutralized the Super Power Pellet’s effects).

    Wow, I had absolutely no idea this version existed. It really should get more time in the spotlight because this is a unique spin on the Pac-Man formula without changing too much of anything,

    there were so many java phone versions. one of the best ones, which i can't find , had a special option with 4 new mazes, that would have easily been the sequel for it. they also had 4 new powerups, that were similar to pac n' pal. i'm still looking for it, because the java emulators could run it. later -1

    6:50 The speed on the Pc DOS version is phenomenal.Not even the mighty PS5 can't hold a candle to this.

    I've probably played the 5200 version the most. I've only seen an actual cab of this once during the 80's. It was at a Sears store in an alcove beneath the escalators.
