Idk if anyone else noticed this, but if you watch this video closely, you’ll notice a very subtle and clever Easter egg referencing the “Pac Man” series of video games. You see, throughout the video Jonii makes plenty of references to the yellow circular arcade game character “Pac Man”. This “Pac Man” character also has a minor role in the “Pac Man” series of video games as the main protagonist. Really cool to see creators put in the effort to hide in these epic Easter eggs!

A few additional factoids that could potentially go onto the iceberg: - While Ninja Gaiden on the NES for a long time was considered to be the first video game with cutscenes, it's generally accepted that Pac-Man was the first game to feature cutscenes, at the time being called "Intermissions" or "Coffee Breaks". - A 2004 episode of VH1's show "Totally Obsessed" features a seemingly obsessive Pac-Man fan named Fred Willard who would play Pac-Man for several hours a day, had a massive collection of Pac-Man memorabilia and even created a mock religion around worshipping him. It was discovered a few years after the episode's premiere that Willard had exaggerated his obsession for entertainment value and while he is a big Pac-Man fan, he is nowhere near as obsessive as his on-screen persona. He a relatively normal guy with a loving wife.

I actually have The Pac-Man Power Pack. It was like, $25 when I bought it on ebay & now it's like, $40-50!

Another random fact that is not in this video so maybe it's even lower: Weird Al Yankovic in 1982 made a parody of The Beatles's Taxman called 'Pac Man'. It being a polka cover of the song with the lyrics changed and SFX from the game used. It was played on the Dr. Demento show a few times but then got a cease-and-desist letter from the song's publisher. It did not get an official release until 2017 when Weird Al released a Rarities album, getting permission from Namco and George Harrison's Estate. Also The Bloodhound Gang song 'Mope' samples the PacMan theme, and is also the source of the Pac-Man on Crack audio skit. I can't find any source that the sample was cleared or licensed by Namco.

There is one missing: Illinois, schaumburg. There is a pac man themed arcade. I live near it.

I remember watching the World Rally trailer in Namco Transmission 3.2 (the demo disc bundled with SoulCalibur III), from what I can tell, Galactic Outpost had the Pac-Man looking moon that wasn't there in the final and Arctic Iceberg was more pink and I think the whale had a bow? I think it also showed off Subterranean Speedway which was only exclusive to the PSP. Pac Man Fever looks a lot like Shrek Super Party, makes sense that they're made by the same developers

3:51 Given that Shadow, Bashful and Pokey are shown when Blinky, Inky and Clyde are referred, it's odd that Pinky doesn't get like, a Speedy Gonzales nod.

34:19 about the only green ghosts can rebel one, there is a dark green ghost named punky, and if that's not rebellious I Don't what is.

35:20 ah yes, the *best* Pac-Man IMO. I'm okay believing he's a scientist since, who else would have made the robot boss at the end of the game?

How I got my info: kzread.info/dash/bejne/k6iVqdGtgZrPops.html

This is a fun iceberg this is a look at, and I definitely appreciate the research for Pac-Man's origin somewhat confirming the pizza story. I remember I heard it at one time, but I couldn't find the source again, and looking up generally online I couldn't find the story or if it was well known. So that fact alone helped me a bunch. Especially since I've been working on a Pac-Man retrospective video, and wanted to include that in the form of a joke.

I started this day learning about Pac-Man lore, I'm going to end it by learning about more Pac-Man lore.

so fun fact about the TURN-TO-BLUE segment at 10:18, this was actually called IZIKE which is seen in the recent release of Pac-Man Museum+ in the figurine pull machine which is a way better name than just "TURN-TO-BLUE"

10:49 oh I have that one! It sucks

General Pac-Man was just trying to care for his family... I feel bad for him. Also I love that clicky stick reference.

I don't recall playing the Google doodle version of Pac-Man that you showed, but I do remember trying out the Google Maps version of Pac-Man which I remember existing as an April 1st gag. I doubt that one's available anymore but it was a treat nonetheless

The intermission bit was such a nice touch 💖 Kudos to you and the pixel artist!

Been enjoying your vids, can’t wait to keep going through. You have a very good voice for video essays tbh. Quick note: at 3:28, you bring up “paku paku” (mouth flapping onomatopoeia) which is パクパク, but use the characters ペコペコ for “peko peko” which is just to be very hungry 😊

I own that old pac man board game lol

Fuck it, I'm getting that flip phone now.

This list missed the pacman tamagotchi that came out last year and that "haunted" pacman fan game that someone made.

36:44 That's Toshio Furukawa! The guy who voiced Piccolo in the Japanese dub of Dragon Ball Z!

Man I’m excited for a potential Pac-Man Fever vid! It’s pretty lackluster playing it now, but my whole family had that memorized when I was a kid. It always got super competitive with me and my dad especially so its probably one of my favorite gaming memories alongside double dash from back when we first got the Gamecube. Pac-Man ended up coloring a lot of my childhood gaming too with all the console and pc games, so overall great video!
