Template:Character-infobox Pac-Man (originally Puck Man) is a famous video game character who first appeared in the arcade classic Pac-Man.
History
Pac-Man Series
Pac-Man Vs.
Pac-Man Vs. is the first game in which characters from the Mario series, and Pac-Man series both appeared. This game was a remake of the original Pac-Man, however in this version of the game players controlled Blinky, Pinky, Inky and Clyde. It seems that during the events of this game Mario was watching over what happened- as he acts as the narrator.
Mario Kart Series
Mario Kart Arcade GP
Pac-Man later appeared in the Mario series as a playable character in Mario Kart Arcade GP, in 2006. Here, Pac-Man was an all-around type character who shares a rivalry with Mario. His special items were Pooka, Rally-X, and Galaga.
Mario Kart Arcade GP 2
In 2007's Mario Kart Arcade GP 2 Pac-Man returned as a playable character. He was the same as he was in Mario Kart Arcade GP, but this time his wife Ms. Pac-Man also appeared as a playable character. The two games are the only arcade installations of the Mario Kart series.
