Pac-Man`s japenese name is Pakkuman. User:Booberry

Pac-Man's history

Can we talk about all of the games that Pac-Man has been in or just GP?

If you want...HK

Oooh... the possibilities... :D -Stumpers

Actually, all info should be from a Marioverse persepctive, meaning info about other games should not be included in the article. See the Zelda page for an example of a non-Marioverse character page. -- Son of Suns
SoS is right. I wasn't thinking when I approved that.HK-47 w4z h3R3

Well, good thing I was too lazy to change anything! Stumpers


Hey in the trivia section should I state that there's a Pac-Man shape on Geno's hat.-User:UltraMario3000

No, that most likely is a coincidence. Unless it was intended to be Pac-Man, such observations are a waste of space.--Knife (talk) 05:04, 7 September 2010 (UTC)

Well ok.--User:UltraMario3000



Mr. Cookie=Retro Pac-Man???

In the new game Pac-Man Party, Mr. Cookie says he has been friends with Blinky for 30 years. 30 years. And this the Pac-Man 30TH Anniversarry. He also says he ate cookies and chased ghost. Plus, Pac-Man was scared of seeing a ghost in this game. So maybe Mr. Cookie is the Classic Pac-Man?----Hookbill the Koopa's artwork from Yoshi's Island: Super Mario Advance 3KoopaManRed Koopa Troopa from New Super Mario Bros. Wii

That's an interesting conclusion, but I don't think it would be appropriate for the MarioWiki. aaaaaaaa Mariomario64! 08:14, 22 June 2011 (EDT)

Why

Why is there even a Pac-Man article? He isn't a character from the main Mario series. He doesn't really get his own page unless he is part of the main Mario series. He has only appeared in an arcade game, and it wasn't part of the Mario series at all, so he really doesn't need his own page, and it should be deleted unless there is actual proof of Pac-Man in the main Mario series (including spin-offs, such as the Mario Tennis series, Mario Party series etc. but not the Wario, Yoshi or DK series).M&L Just because you're in red doesn't mean you're strong.

We don't have rules that say only characters who appear in main series articles get pages Raven Effect (talk)

SFxT

Should we put that he is a playable character in Street Fighter X Tekken? and he rides a mokujin robot in the game Tadaa!2.gif R3D347H wuz here Tadaaa!

It doesn't have anything to do with Mario so, no. User:Whitey

Using newer Pac-Man artwork

I was thinking we could use a render of Pac-Man depicting his newer look somewhere on the page, since in Mario Kart Arcade GP DX, Pac-Man uses the exact same art. Superjustin (talk) 19:06, 29 August 2014 (EDT)

I think it should be his Super Smash Bros. look, but we'll do that once the 3DS game is released. Mario It's me, Mario! (Talk / Stalk) 19:15, 29 August 2014 (EDT)

Pacmans final smash

This should be noted as the only final smash that can go out of bounds and loop back around.- Cubeguy2ver.pngCubeguy(talk)

our own Pac-Man wiki

maybe we can create our own Pac-Man Wiki
— The preceding unsigned comment was added by Rowbro (talk).

That would be up to Porplemontage, the creator of this and several other wikis. Mario jumping Nightwicked Bowser Bowser emblem from Mario Kart 8

then maybe we could ask Porplemontage to make the Pac-Man Wiki, maybe on Twitter

He's likely not going to follow through with the request. BabyLuigiFire.pngRay Trace(T|C) 02:16, December 31, 2020 (EST)
Besides, the other wikis Porplemontage made including this one were created about 14 years ago. Mario jumping Nightwicked Bowser Bowser emblem from Mario Kart 8

Then maybe Namco will--Rowbro (talk) 00:46, February 11, 2021 (EST)

Miyamoto's quote

When did Shigeru Miyamoto ever say that quote? It isn’t cited where he said that. User:Starluxe (talk) 21:17, June 15, 2024 (GMT)

It's cited here, but the link is dead at the moment. Mario (Gold) costume pose in Super Mario Maker Mario JC 23:54, June 15, 2024 (EDT)

Pac-Man infobox change

Pac-Man infobox artwork continues to be changed back to the ghostly adventures look he has in GP DX. When I changed it, admittedly I used a non Mario-related artwork (which is what you shouldn't do). That said, it was changed to the Smash Ultimate design at one point but changed back to the GP DX design. I believe we should remove the smash ultimate artwork from the smash ultimate section of the article and use it for the infobox instead. The OG humanoid design is more commonly used and the most recent design for the character both in non Mario-related media and Mario-related media (If one does not consider Puck from Shadow Labyrinth to be the same character). --Vampire Wario from Dr. Mario 64 Pizza Master Waluigi using the Bitsize Candy from Mario Party 8 19:33, April 24, 2025 (EDT)

Nothing against the Ghostly Adventures design (i like the design) but yeah, it should use his most common design. --Green Yoshi FanOfYoshi at 05:40, April 25, 2025 (EDT)
For simplicity's sake, I removed the Smash 4 artwork from that section and put it into the character infobox since that design is also more recent than the GP DX design. I did the same kinda thing that was done with Samus' page on this one. -- Pizza Master (talk)
