Who can forget the popularity of Pac Man and Mrs. Pac Man.  Pac Man was released in 1980, followed by the ever more popular Ms. Pacman, which was released in 1981.  After that, things went nuts.  A few of the spin offs were Super Pac Man, Jr. Pac Man, Baby Pac Man, Mr. & Mrs. Pac Man, Professor Pac Man, Pac & Pal, Pac Land, Pac Mania, and many more well into the 90's.  Visit the ARCADE section of this site for more of the games you loved in the 80's.
