He does talk in the Ghostly Adventures, but most of us would rather see him making generic World-esque sound effects.
I would totally main Mappy. In a heartbeat.
Welcome to the club, Pac-Supporter! ..and since seems you're a Pac-Man fan with little knowledge of his modern days (no offense, please); I say: he does talk! (and a lot!).. and didn't take a while for start, actually, in Pac-Man World 3 he has a full voice acting during all the game, and all the cutscenes involves a lot of dialogue just with him and Orson (the Ghost),... the funny thing is, even he being officially, at that time, the "Mr." Pac-Man (whose is already married and have a son), his mature and "senior" voice doesn't really fit to him, imo... he just so caricatured and has a such strong "cute appeal", that that voice doesn't seem right for him. (and another point is that, when he takes a hit, a more common "Oh!" is heard, basically in the same tone of his voice in Pac-Man Party, lol).
heh, I would love... and then, Pac-Man fans, "Tales of" fans, and Klonoa fans would live together without conflict XD... and then, people whose would discussing about which Nintendo character should be in the game, would feel the situation of how better Mario alone would represent Nintendo; is our case with Pac-Man and NAMCO. =)
To me, a design with so many details just doesn't mesh well with the single-color look of the eyes.I know some of you said you didn't like the render in my sig, but maybe it would look better if you saw the whole thing?
I love it, personally. It has the new shoes and gloves but has the old eyes reminiscent of Pac-Man World. I don't think they look soul-less at all, they look Pac-Man.
I don't like, honestly..sorry. The black eyes just fits in the original design, .. I mean, .. with smaller nose, simple boots, gloves without fingers, etc. .. and here just seem that the Ghostly Adventures' Pacster lost their eyes, and got two holes in the place, X_X. ... it's weird. (and just a detail, .. I hate to be critical, but the eyes are wrong... the gaps of each eye are for the opposing sides in the original design).I know some of you said you didn't like the render in my sig, but maybe it would look better if you saw the whole thing?

We can only hope.
yep, is what I expect. At least, I think that both NAMCO Bandai and Sakurai knows that Ghostly Adventures is relatively new to be appealing for all tastes when it comes to the overall fanbase of Pac-Man; but definitely they need to pull the new design and new world for make it more popular possible, and take advantage of the good marketing of Smash4.. So, if we get Wireframe Mac for Little Mac's alt costume (which the fanbase is totally okay with the modern redesign, I suppose), I think we'll get Pac's classic design as an alt too. =)
I feel pretty safe about each character getting at least one alternate costume. Still holding out for Thief Wario and Pink Jumpsuit Mac.
I feel like that's going to be the case rather than Ms. Pac-Man being the alt skin. If they give him a voice, they're going to have to completely change it for a skin, and I don't see them doing that, so Pac-Man World Pac would be a nice option or maybe they'll go even more retro and go with big-nose Pac-Man.
I'd be more than fine with Puck Man. I would play him to death.I feel like that's going to be the case rather than Ms. Pac-Man being the alt skin.

I'm almost there
I'd remove the white part definitely. It's better, but I would also make it more vibrant. The yellow's too pale on the actual design.Phew, this was a bit difficult. I took a few of your complaints on my previous design and took things up a notch.
Key differences: Eyes are now closer and mirrored, the left eyebrow is a bit off but this is the best I could do. The nose is also smaller.
Shoes are now less detailed, with a simple cuffed boot design. Not sure if I should have taken the white parts off or not though.
So what do you think of this one now?
Yeah, that definitely looks far less creepy. I think the thing that makes it creepy for me is that it feels like there's a little bit of lighting in that right eye, right on the rightmost edge of it, so it makes the eye look like a hole in his face, like it has depth. That's what makes it look odd to me, because instead of him having black Pac-Man eyes, it's like he has empty voids.Phew, this was a bit difficult.

I had actually already saturated it more, but feared going further would mess up the image. I've added a bit of contrast now and it does look better.
I fixed the shoes to remove some of the added details, I've removed some of the white like Pacack said, but I left the strips to keep some of the new design intact.

- I always thought a "modernized classic design" would work for Pac-Man in Smash. Great job!
WFT and Villager are both avatar-type "non-characters" though. I think that's the only reason Sakurai would consider putting their opposite gender equivalents in as alt-costumes. Changing Pac-Man into Ms. Pac-Man is a whole nother story.Indeed, I'm really digging that look @
Now, I wouldn't mind a classic style as an alt costume either, as long as we just get the character in the game haha... but I think Ms. Pac-Man is an option seeing as how the Wii Fit Trainer(s) work, and possibly (and probably) Villager as well.
Ah right, true. WFT and Villager are indeed still the same character regardless of gender while Pac-Man and Ms. Pac-Man are not. So, Ms. Pac-Man as an Assist Trophy, anyone? Haha.
Could you do the same thing to the shoes before on this image?I had actually already saturated it more, but feared going further would mess up the image. I've added a bit of contrast now and it does look better.

And actually, I'm not using Photoshop, but thanks! Here's a comparison of the original GA design and my newest edit, slight quality loss, but oh well.
Ah, but I already made my final edit.Could you do the same thing to the shoes before on this image?
And, if you can, would you angle the eyes' openings a bit upwards like the classic design?
I can do my saturation on the image, but it's broken for me. Could you reupload it?Ah, but I already made my final edit.
Couldn't you just over saturate this one? The shoes were difficult...
I don't know about the eyes, I already remade my gif as well. I could possibly do it eventually, but I'm done for the night.
Strange. Does it work now?
Works now.Strange. Does it work now?
I'll try to do the eyes and remake the gif again another day, I'll make a non-animated version for you too if you'd like.

. I think you got incredibly close to something awesome there. I just edited the eyes a bit to make them look less hollow. More like they're actually a part of his face rather than holes or indents into his face. It's all about the lighting around the edges.
It's only Canadian only as a test market. If it does well it'll get released worldwide.I guess canadian networks are cheaper to work with.Hi guys! Just wanted to pop in and share something with you all!
Does anyone remember that Facebook Poll Namco had about four different Pac-Man designs and then nothing ever happened after that?
Well I guess I found out what it was for:
PAC-MAN MONSTERS, THE CANADIAN ONLY MOBILE PUZZLE RPG!!
Artstyle they went if is pretty cool, but all of that for a Canadian only mobile puzzle rpg???
like seriously??
