On October 13, 1981, PM Magazine Chicago aired a television report known as "Pac-Mania Invades Chicago" The coverage elaborated on the revolutionary success of Pac-Man as well as all the moving parts (gameplay and machine mechanisms alike) that make the game tick.

Here is the scene in question. (Content warning: Language)

Namco's 1993 Japan-only arcade game, Tinkle Pit, features a barrage of characters and elements from their previous games. If players obtain the "Pac-Attack" power-up, they will turn into Pac-Man or Ms. Pac-Man, and all the enemies will become blue ghosts for them to eat.

In early 2006, Namco Museum Battle Collection got a sequel exclusively in Japan named ナムコミュージアム Vol. 2 (Namco Museum Vol. 2) It features a special version of 2005's Pac-Man Arrangement that gives half of the game's levels a Namco-themed makeover and new music to accommodate.

Just Dance 2019 features a song based on the original Pac-Man game. The dancers wear costumes of Pac-Man himself, Blinky, Pinky, and Inky. The song can also be found and played through the Just Dance Now app and the Just Dance Unlimited subscription service.

NEWS: Pac-Man World 2: Re-Pac has received an update granting players access to the newly in-game birthday outfit, released in celebration of the franchise's 46th anniversary.

There are many hidden gestures the player can activate by drawing them in Pac-Pix's sketchbook mode. However, one of these can only be performed in the Japanese version; if a line shaped like a butt is drawn successfully, an orange cloud will come out and make an explosion sound.

In 1982, a band named R. Cade and the Video Victims created an album of video game-themed songs under the title "Get Victimized." One of the songs is a seemingly spiritual follow-up to Pac-Man Fever, this time focusing on Ms. Pac-Man.

While Toru Iwatani has long been absent from Pac-Man productions for many years now, one unutilized concept lingers within his mind: having Pac-Man sing. Albeit rarely, there are multiple instances in interviews where he publicly proposes the idea of a Pac-Man music game.

In 1996, shareware developer ChamProgramming released Champ Pac-Em and Champ Ms. Pac-Em. These were unofficial, but faithful recreations of Pac-Man and Ms. Pac-Man for DOS computers at the time; they also boasted a "Champ" mode that adds new features to the experience.

Big corporations have way too much power in America today, and the President has doubled down on it by filling up their coffers and giving them a seat at the table in decisions of war and peace. This is an outrage, and in Congress I’m working to bring the power back where it belongs: We the People.

Don’t let these MAGA influencers lie to you or distract you. President Trump’s big ugly bill is taking healthcare away from millions while he uses his DOJ to target his enemies. We see MAGA influencers and politicians will justify anything Trump does to stay in the good graces of Dear Leader.
