Saturday Morning Cartoons: PAC-MAN: Snack Breaks | Ep 1: Welcome to New PAC-City

The PAC is BAC

It’s been a long, long time since those early PAC-MAN cartoons graced our TV sets in the early Eighties. I fondly remember watching them and being in awe that video games had expanded outside of small digital bleeps and bloops and onto full TV sets and half hour sections of our day. A new PAC-MAN episode was an event for us kids, and the dude became our first real video game hero. He rivaled Mickey Mouse and Tom & Jerry at the time, and was definitely much more cool.

Ahem, anyhoo he’s back in animated form! This time on YouTube, PAC-MAN: Snack Breaks stars the yellow ball as he regularly faces off against the ghosts. The first episode has our intrepid dude trying to get back the ingredients of a cake.

And you know what? Sure. Get that cake, PAC. You deserve it.
