Pac-Land (Pac-Man's Stage)

Does anyone feel like this will be a scrolling stage? (This is his Wii U stage!)

We reach the end meet the fairy and she teleports the players back to the start.

It will be. You can see it in his trailer. I really like it.

Hyped for this stage... still wish they updated the graphics from 8-bit sprites to HD 3D models... but I'm not butthurt over the visuals. The most important thing is that Pac-Man is playable and he has his classic design.

I noticed that the roofs of various buildings serve as platforms. I wonder if they will have stage hazards such as ghosts piloting planes and UFOs, ghosts driving cars and buses, and ghosts hopping with pogo sticks.

Looks nice, I have to say. Prefer the Maze though.

So excited to see this new stage in action. :D

I'm really eager to play in MS Paint!

That's from Pac-Land?

I kinda wished they would update the graphics or include a stage from Pac-Man World...

I'm not really liking this stage much so far. Not only is it a scrolling stage (my least favorite stage archetype), but I also would have greatly preferred they updated the location into 3D models. I understand why Pac-Man is so retro-focused in this game and I like that about him, but this is a location that every character is going to mingle with. Ripping the original sprites makes the location look ugly when paired with anyone but Pac-Man, and just seems more lazy than anything having to do with being historical.

It would've made more sense for both systems to have an arcade maze stage. People who only buy the Wii U version will be confused & upset at this being the Pac-Man stage.

I like how there is a 8-bit stage in the Wii U version too. That is pretty nice. A shame it is a scrolling stage, though.

 

[Bauske]

I highly doubt it'll happen, but I'm hoping for the 3DS retro maze to be on the Wii U as well. It looks like so much fun!

Or maybe people might learn a thimg or two, like how Pac-Man was doing smooth side-scrolling a full year before Super Mario Bros.

I also like that this basically confirms Sonic and Mega Man will have unique 3DS stages as well.

Although I really like the Ode to Pac-Land, I really wished they had used something else as a Pac-Man stage, the 3DS stage is far superior, maybe a DX Championship version for the Wii U version or maybe a Pac-Man World stage

I don't think any version of Championship Edition ever showed up on a Nintendo console, if that matters. Pac-Land at least had a Famicom port back in the day.

Pac-Man and Galaga Dimensions (3DS) had Championship Edition. Sadly no HOME console version.
