Ms. Pac-Man: The Trademark-Violating “Enhancement” That Turned Into A Massive Hit Sequel

Ms. Pac-Man wasn’t designed by Toru Iwatana, the creator of Pac-Man. In fact, it wasn’t designed by Namco – the owner of Pac-Man – at all. Instead, it was designed as an “enhancement kit” by a group of MIT students who figured out how to take stale video games and revive them for commercial use. Oh, and it didn’t start as Ms. Pac-Man at all. It started as Crazy Otto: Pac-Man with legs. This is the wild story of two MIT students who were just trying to make a few extra bucks. Instead, they created a brand new franchise that expanded a legendary video game family. In so doing, they took on – and ultimately partnered with – two video game giants. It’s like David vs. Goliath – but David and Goliath both win. Here’s the story of Ms. Pac-Man. #videogames #videogamehistory #pacman #mspacman #arcadegames -- Like what you watched?
