Item Description
If the Atari 2600 Pac-Man taught players to be wary of home conversions, the Atari 5200 version was Atari's chance to make things right. Arriving with the new console in late 1982, it was based on the Atari computer conversion rather than the 2600 game, and the difference is obvious from the first trip around the board: a proper arcade-style maze, four individual ghosts, bonus fruit and even the animated intermissions between rounds.
Namco's 1980 original needs little introduction. Toru Iwatani designed it as a game anyone could enjoy, and its simple loop of eating dots, grabbing a power pellet and turning the tables on Blinky, Pinky, Inky and Clyde made Pac-Man a pop-culture phenomenon, with a hit song, a Saturday-morning cartoon and a yellow face on everything from lunchboxes to cereal. Few video game characters have ever been as recognizable.
The 5200 conversion plays fast. It runs a little faster than Atari's earlier computer version and cleans up a few of that release's bugs, and Atari even swapped the arcade's Galaxian flagship bonus for its own Fuji logo. The analog controller takes a few mazes to master, since corners reward a firm, deliberate push, but once you have the feel, the chase is tense and quick. In 1983 Atari made Pac-Man the pack-in game for the redesigned two-port 5200, which made it the game many later owners remember first.
That history is the appeal. This is the Pac-Man that showed the 5200 could carry real arcade games home, and it is a clear window into what Atari's “SuperSystem” was aiming for.
