Blinky: Tries to find the shortest route to Pac-Man Pinky: Is always moving to get infront of you Inky: Uses a line to measure distance from Pac-Man and Blinky, and turns it 180° Clyde: Blinky, but if close enough to Pac-Man, he will start to head to the bottom left corner.
I still have this item to this day in 2024 I really like the retro arcade games that was on this plug and play console Pac-Man is obviously my favorite game in fact Pac-Man was the first video game I played when I was younger
I initially thought "Pac-Man Level 256" was "Pac-Man 256," a completely different game (it's basically Crossy Road crossed with Pac-Man, an endless-runner game in which you're in an endless Pac-Man maze trying to stay ahead of a wave of destruction themed after the level 256 kill screen glitch, with a variety of interesting power-ups).
I saw one of these on eBay yesterday for just $12 plus shipping, so I thought what the heck and bought it. I have a a few older TVs with composite inputs, so I should be able to connect it to a screen no problem.
Randy Beltran Yep :) I even love the sequel for the NES called Mappy Land. I recommend you to check that game out if you haven't already. I also plan to play Mappy Kids for the Famicom, but it's easier said than done in my case.
All Access Gaming It is! :D Mappy is such an amazing gem! It's also my favorite arcade game :) I've seen you around commonly on RUclips, and I do get an impression you love Mappy a lot :) That is really awesome! Namco should reboot Mappy one day! Seriously, Mappy needs to come back in modern gaming world.
i just bought this plug and play and got pretty good at most of the games fast. i learned that in the second level of bosconian, you can go in between the two ships at the left and get then both at the dame time in the middle of them.
I just got my Pac-Man plug-in play game the other day the games from the 1980’s are more fun to play then the games now I’m having fun with my Pac-Man plug-in play game I love it. Yes
Great Video! I have one and I agree with your few criticisms of the plug n play, and I'll add one more to it. on Bosconian and Xevious, it's very hard to go diagonal, which is essential for both of those games. Other than that, for $20 bucks it's a great deal and conversation piece. I recommend giving it as a gift to a kid to get 'em into retro arcade gaming.
yeah... the old purple and yellow one had superior controls (also right hand orientation), but the graphics and sound weren't as good. Maybe in the next one they'll nail it all.
@@marccaselle8108 not sure if they play it anymore, it's been 5 years, lol. I do think one of the nephews now plays Pac-Man 99 on his Nintendo Switch. He wouldn't have known about Pac-Man if not for this little game though.
@@marccaselle8108 Yes, I have a MAME cabinet that I built from an old bowling arcade cabinet that has a ton of games on it. When they come over, they still like to play Ghosts 'N Goblins and this weird game called Liquid Kids all the time on it.
It was new to me :), the purpose of my channel is for me to share what I find and what is new to me :) I know lots of stuff I talk about has been covered already, but not what I think about it :)
Not big on the left-handed orientation of the buttons but other than that I like it. I'm looking around to see if there is a secret setup screen to flip the controls.
On the pac man arcade game there’s a code to make pac man go really fast does the plug in and play pac man have codes to make pac man fast if anyone knows please let me know have a blessed day
If u want to know the ghost patterns I can tell you. If you don't want me to tell u then don't click read more. Just in case you want to learn the patterns yourself. The red ghost tries to get to your exact position. The pink ghost tries to get in front of you and cut off your path. The blue ghost tries to get pacman in between himself and the red ghost. The ornage ghost is completely random.
This plug and play system has 12 games like the Retro Arcade plug and play, but that one has the original Galatian sounds. How come they’re not on this version?
Ms. Pac-Man was not originally made by Namco but was instead made by Midway, Namco's distributor. They made a bunch of Pac-Man sequels without Namco's permission.
Here's how I remember the ghost's behavior:
Blinky chases you, Pinky ambushes you, Inky helps Blinky, and Clyde's a idiot.
Blinky: Tries to find the shortest route to Pac-Man
Pinky: Is always moving to get infront of you
Inky: Uses a line to measure distance from Pac-Man and Blinky, and turns it 180°
Clyde: Blinky, but if close enough to Pac-Man, he will start to head to the bottom left corner.
I wish these companies would follow Nintendo and release a version with HDMI and support for HDTVs.
Pac-Man 256 should've been Ms. Pac-Man!
Agreed

I had that plug n play for almost a year now.
plug n play started last week. all from Mrs Pac-Man.
That game should've been on the Connect 'n Play
Just found your channel.
You really do a great job and I love your enthusiasm.
I gave my wife this a few years ago she enjoys it. 🙂
It's amazing it's just like playing on the arcade now we can play on TV
I just ordered it today from Amazon. I can't wait to try it.
I saw one of these on eBay yesterday for just $12 plus shipping, so I thought what the heck and bought it. I have a a few older TVs with composite inputs, so I should be able to connect it to a screen no problem.
I have this a excellent deal and great games selection. Love the design .
I love the Pac-Man games, they never get old.
I can say the same for Mappy :) Mappy is a really amazing game.
Oh yeah, Mappy is loads of fun!
Randy Beltran Yep :) I even love the sequel for the NES called Mappy Land. I recommend you to check that game out if you haven't already. I also plan to play Mappy Kids for the Famicom, but it's easier said than done in my case.

I wish this had the turbo speed ms. PacMan on it
The distorted super pacman was probably your TV speakers, I never had that problem and I have the same plug and play.
The background music for new rally x sounds like the jingle from baby bottle pop. Lol
I got that today for 8 dollars in a Rummage sale
I have that plug n play
Same👌🏻
Just got mines yesterday

psjedi1 exactly my thoughts too. Xevious is particularly difficult with this joystick. It's great for the two and four direction games, though.
+psjedi1
That's a general problem with microswitch-based joysticks.
Christopher Sobieniak You can do diagonals, it's just extremely hard to do so.
I will say...even if they left out Bosconian and Xevious (due to it being difficult to go diagonal), it's still worth the $20.
yeah... the old purple and yellow one had superior controls (also right hand orientation), but the graphics and sound weren't as good. Maybe in the next one they'll nail it all.
There’s another version of this plug n play but instead of Pac-Man’s shape it’s in a shape of Blinky.
Walmart? That’s where I also got it!
Bosconian and Super Pac-Man were some of my favorites in the arcade. Have not seen this in any of our local stores so not sure where it is sold.
The wife and I just gifted this to the nephews for Christmas. Eager to see how they like it and play some with them.
Hopefully they will enjoy it and have fun. 🙂

@@TortureBot That's a nice story. I also have a raspberry pi 3 with RetroPie and that's how I play old video games.

I found one of these at Goodwill for $2 and it perfectly works
I have that plug-in play game
Your videos are so awesome Will! ;)
I love this Plug N Play, and I was surprised to see how much my kid, and her friends liked it as well. :-)
I just wish that it had either Ms Pac man or Pole Position instead of Pac man 256.
I have this plug and play and I love it! Awesome review Will!
Das sind noch ehrliche und gute spiele.Schöne Vorstellung der spiele.
i liked this vid because i couldn't belive that people like this awsome guy would still review this and i allready have this and i was just playing it

For real pac-man 256 is just like crossy road
another good video yeah I enjoyed my plug in plays as well
When it was scared mode ghosts look like 3D in game PAC - MAN
On the pac man arcade game there’s a code to make pac man go really fast does the plug in and play pac man have codes to make pac man fast if anyone knows please let me know have a blessed day
I like this P n P, but I would love to see the JR Pacman included some time.
Jr Pac is hardly heard about anymore... Ms Pac hardly gets attention too tho
Tip: Hold A And B Together

Have you keep this video in a playlist
Mine Is different from yours apparently box completely different
I want it so much!

Very Fun Video, The Reason Why You Don't Remember Pac & Pal Is Because It Never Came Out In Western Countries.
Whoa, you have a RUclips channel? 3 words: A MAZE ING! (it's a pun)
why does it not come with ms pac man
Jeanne Beck for they can make more money.
Ms. Pac-Man was not originally made by Namco but was instead made by Midway, Namco's distributor. They made a bunch of Pac-Man sequels without Namco's permission.
@@schnoople7298 Like Pac-Man Plus & Super Pac-Man, so why not have Ms. Pac-Man too?
Are these games perfect emulation?
not sure, not very critical on that type of thing :P
Boi, I Have That, Duh! But GREAT!!!!!!!
I got this for like 5 dollars
TaeBot64 YT where? Lol
TaeBot64 YT where please tell me PLEASE
TaeBot64 YT 19 USD For Me
It is at Walmart
Neat!
What do microswitches do?
They complete a circuit to send a signal to the processor in this device so it knows what the player is wanting to do.
@@SVT512 Okay
@@SVT512 Thanks.
Hey, you skipped PAC-MAN Plus.

Yeah, it's fine, you didn't skip it on the PAC-MAN Retro Arcade or Super PAC-MAN Plug & Play consoles.
