Pac-Man and the Ghostly Adventures - The Games That KILLED The Pac 

WE'RE GETTING THE PAC BACK WITH THIS ONE 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥‼️

Surely this isn’t the ominous foreshadowing to Dumbsy actually making a review to the show because he would never subject himself to such torture…

One thing I like to clarify, is that I've always seen Ghostly Adventure Pac-Man as the SON of the Original Pac-Man & Ms. Pac-Man. Due to the fact that in the show, his parents were apparently heroes of the world, and the fact that this show takes place in a future city.

This mega man fully charged & Sonic Boom are like part of an era of video game mascot revivals that barely were

Pac-Man and the Ghostly Adventures is the first time I think I've ever developed stockholm syndrome with a show's theme song.

If anything at least the show gave us the Nerd Pacman meme

Fun fact the voice actress of pac man in the pac man and the ghostly adventures video games, Erica Mendez was the English voice Ryoko Matoi from Kill la Kill, Akko from little witch academia, Diane from seven deadly sins, and both white lily cookie and black pearl cookie from cookie run kingdom.

This, Sonic Boom, and Mega Man Fully Charged were part of an era where the companies thought that making a new subseries with a CGI show and a potential video game tie-in would make them bank.

Executive 1: So how do we make Pac-Man popular again. Executive 2: Uh, give him the powers of Kirby and the style of Sonic the Hedgehog? Executive 1: BRILLIANT!

How much would it cost to make you watch the entire TV series?

If you pay attention, the characters with legs never actually sit down. The designers and modelers didn't think of that being a possibility, so they would clip into themselves and look disgusting.

Fun fact: The games had a different voice cast from the show due to it being recorded in LA while the show was recorded in Vancouver. I’d be down for Spiral and Cylindria being brought back as Pac-Man Jr’s friends

Come on Dumbsville, you don't remember Pac-Man's iconic sidekicks, E-Girl Pac-Man and Sonic Boom Knuckles Pac-Man?

This just unlocked a nearly forgotten memory of me playing one of these games for like an hour and then never touching it again. Feels nostalgic for some reason

I love Dumbsville I wish schizophrenia was real

It was truly a delight to hear that the man I respect the most in gaming put an end to Pac's dark age.

Fun fact: the same writers who did Pac-Man the Ghostly Adventures TV show also were the writers for Sonic colors sonic Generations and Sonic Lost World

So hard to believe the pac coming back was a freaking decade ago .

You know it's bad when the character designs on the thumbnail are better than the designs in the show.

personally i kinda enjoyed this era of pacman, i thought it was really cool that they tried to expand pacman universe, and i did enjoy the show and games even if they were far from perfect, i highly doubt it will happen but i wouldn't mind seeing this version of pacman return one day. also i really don't get what the big deal is about pac man re design its basically the exact same as the pacman world design but with different looking eyes.

i remember wanting this game so bad but my parents never got me it...guess i was lucky

I heard Pac-Man fell into a depression when this series was made. I hope he recovers from it😢

You know we're in for a treat when Dumbsville uploads.

HOLY SHIT HES BAAAAACK THE PAC IS BAAAAAAAACK 💥💥💥💥

imma need the full version of that ken carson remix at 13:33, shit actually went hard 😂

Had no idea there was Pac-Man lore. I need to research more about it. Great video Dumbsy !!!

Oh my god, I LITERALLY WAS THINKING ABOUT THIS SHOW A FEW HOURS AGO FOR NO REASON, this show was honestly a big part of my 7-8 year old life tbh. This played so much in Disney XD back then it’s insane, the show isn’t too bad but definitely needs some help. But u feel like the show is trashed on way too much. Great video otherwise and nice editing👍

I can’t be the only one getting Balan Wonderworld flashbacks with these gameplay decisions am I?

I remember actually studying the first ghostly adventures game and using a certain level to get to 99 lives easily

Highlights: 0:00 Intro 1:00 He does the Meme 1:54 We all know Pacman 2:15 The Pacman World Trilogy in a Nutshell (3 ain´t that bad) 2:21 Ok, now we are getting there 2:40 Just a Party Game 2:49 Then 3 Years later 3:28 TV Show (Tom Ruegger was involved) and 2 Videogames 3:55 *Laughs hardly* WAIT, WHAT? 4:03 What a great Info 4:56 *Sigh* 5:16 What is this Story? 6:26 Oh, now you noticed 6:47 Well... You´re right 7:02-8:00 Gameplay (but no Depth) 8:30 Falling down Animation 8:42-10:46 Power-Up´s (More like Power-Obligations) 10:56 So unrememorable it´s memorable 12:10 Good Thing it didn´t happen 12:39 Basically Pacman Museum 13:57 Rando Quote 14:30 Well, F*ck 14:53 Better Pacman Museum 15:26-15:57 The Sequel in a Nutshell 16:30 Why? 16:32 Power-Ups that are now Power-Ups 17:28 Improved Camera 18:04 Negatives 18:44-19:28 Worlds in the Sequel 19:09 Other playable Characters 20:25 Basically Dumbsville´s Opinion 21:17 Pac-Man Reboot (killed off by Sakurai) 21:59 One of the best modern Remakes 22:15 Ending

THE PAC IS BAAACK

These are the games your dad buys you when he doesn't love you enough.

I remember me and my brothers loving this show as a kid. Me and my brothers still reference the intro line “ThE pAC iS BasaAaaAaAAcK”

the twinsanity music that started around 10:48 took me way back holy shit

You know what's really odd? The E-girl Pac-person would have been a decent design.... In something NOT Pac-Man. That look just doesn't work for a Pac-person. Like, put that sort of look onto a human (obviously with more clothes like a black skirt with a chain on the side, some kind of shirt, like maybe with the pattern from her helmet in the game, maybe a short vest). Or heck, if she was in a different game with non-human types.... Hell, in some weird universe where she was a Sonic character instead, she might have had a sizable fanbase.

This is really cool, I only knew about the tv show, I never knew it was adapting a game

The red pac-guy is basically just Boom Knuckles

Yeah, before Mario, Pacman was my favorite. I was excited when I heard he was getting a show. I didn't like it that much.

Pac-Man World Re-Pac is a definite improvement from the original PS1 version!

People were wrong, this isn't the Sonic 06 of Pac-Man, this is the Sonic Boom of Pac-Man

I’ve actually seen the show so I can fill you in on it, The best way to describe the show is: “it’s like the Sonic Boom TV show but it doesn’t have the good writing or funny jokes”

These games feel like a mixture of Sonic Boom and Balland wonderworld

As it turns out, the Pac was back. Back in court for what he did on those ‘Ghostly Adventures’ to the innocent people of Dubai.

Your honor. The Pac... Is Bac.

Also the goth pacgirl was a gift.

I got the first game for the Wii U as a birthday present, but never touched it until years later because the box art put me off of it. When finally trying it out after all that time, I skipped the intro, went to the first level, did Pac-Man’s weird scare move twice, and ultimately decided to hightail it out ASAP. Quite literally the fastest I’ve ever put down a game in my life, and I unironically loved Paper Mario: Sticker Star and completed that in full around the same time!

Dreamworks presents, The Boss Baby. Shrek, Illuminati, Derp. The Pac is back. He goes chomping at his feet.

They straight up gave Pac-Man Kirby's copy ability

Everyone's grandparents would have a seizure trying to understand what happened to Pac-man

I played both of these games and they were solid adventures. Simplistic, sure, but the level design was fun enough and you could do a lot worse in terms of 3D platformers. Shame this sub series didn’t stick around for longer because I do quite like new Pac’s design, especially the shoes. Also. The ost of these games were really good

The Lego Squidward jumpscare gets me everytime along with the Armored Core references. Absolutely epic and thank you for bringing this to life.

kid:hey mom can we get kirby and the forgotton land mom:we have kirby and the forgotton land at home kirby and the forgotton land at home:

3:52 Yeah, I remember watching that one. That one is definitely the Pac-Man equivalent to the SpongeBob “Squid Baby” episode.

2:38 the redesign for Pac-Man here actually goes back as far as 2008, when they were planning on making a 4th Pac-Man World game that ended up getting cancelled. Namco really wanted to push Pac-Man back into the mainstream, though the Ghostly Adventures game and show, were in development hell. Don't ask why I know so much about the development of Pac-Man and his Ghostly Adventures.

Yeah, Pac-Man and the Ghostly Adventures was a weird part of my childhood. Some sort of acid trip.

Dumbsville? More like the movie "Alpha & Omega" for the DVD.

Still love these games and this show, but I guess I can see why people won’t like it, in the mean time, ima go watch it again and think “man, I sure wish they kept this design and games no matter how much the fandom would hate it”

I remember buying ghosty adventures 2 over Donkey Kong Tropical Freeze and that was the worst mistake of my life.

3:02 Always wanted a Lego Squidward.

Ghostly Adventures was a pretty good show all things considered.

Me and my brothers watches this show and my lil brother played both Wii U games

I would die laughing if you reviewed the show! As a kid I used to watched this show a lot and was pretty sad with it got cancelled. I know this show was utter trash I don’t know what was wrong with me back then.

I went through the 5 stages of grief admitting that my autistic ass use to love this show and watch it every night before bed on my fucking wii u gamepad when I was like 8

Your montage is to me the best representation of how my mind feels watching this Pac-Man

0:27 me when the Mercedes AMG Petronas Formula One Team cameo

Honestly, the animated series wasn't horrible IMO.

It's sad😢 because me and my brother used to love Pac-Man and the ghostly adventures until the hatred of the show

Tall Red Pac-Man honestly reminds me of the Jelly Belly mascot.

As someone who’s played the 3ds version of the 1st game, I don’t blame you for not caring. It had some fun moments but what really ruins it are the boss fights, I promise you theirs 1 boss in particular where the pink pac girl will NEVER SHUT UP and keeps saying pac man’s name over and over again and at that point, I beat the game and never played it again 🫥. I’ve always wanted to try the 2nd game though, idk something about it just always looked kinda fun to me

God bless Sakurai for saving Pac Man lol.

Handler Walter: Time to work, 621...That unidentified round yellow lifeform stands in the way of the coral deposits...Destroy it, now.

Hot take: Pac-Man and the Ghostly Adventures 2 is the best Pac-Man platformer game before Re-Pac showed up. Yes, I find GA2 to be even be a smidge better than World 2.

Watch Dumbsville review the entire 22 hour long cartoon series a month or two later after much demand.

15:26 SONIC UNDERGROUD REFERENCE!?!?!?

Why am I getting flashbacks to Balan's Wonderworld...

7:40 sonic adventure has really good physics and momentum based gameplay

I NEED A FULL REMIX OF PAC N’ PAL

Man, dumbsville having a death grips joke in the video oddly brought me some nostalgia

The memories you just awakend in me is crazy

I remember as a kid that I HATED this show, I think that it was because I found pac-man to be very unlikeable. That, and his design is horrendous. His SpongeBob ahh nose kills it for me.

Western Kirby Right Back At Ya (the vore is far more prominent)

"Your honour in my client's defense, the Pac is back"

she pacs my man til i ghostly adventure.

The pac-lore is so dark and deep 😔

WE STAYING IN MARKETING SCHOOL WITH THIS ONE 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥‼️‼️

PLS 😭 This was my favorite Disney channel's cartoon show, I remember waiting everytime this show is on screen Idk why it got cancelled tho

13:34 for those who wanna hear the fire

Everywhere I go, I get reminded to play mgsv

I remember that pacman show always airing on tv, but I can’t remember a single episode or scene for that matter

I have no positive memories of Pac-Man Ghostly Adventures stuff but I do have fond memories of playing Pac-Man Party with my little brother while we were moving into our new house, still living in that house to this day

3 BANDS ON ME WALKING AROUND THE STORE OFF A OXY

The Pac-Man redesign was also used for his playable appearance in Street Fighter X Tekken

Thomas And The Magic Railroad - LOOK OUT OF THE TRAIN 🚂

I remember watching the show of this year's ago. I barely even remember it but I watched the entire thing like twice for some reason.

WE MAKING IT OUT OF THE MAZE WITH THIS ONE 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

The level gimmicks and “openness” of the levels always made the ghostly adventure games so interesting to me as a kid. Also unrelated to the games but those pac-burgers always looked tasty. Nice vid. 👍

THE PAC IS BACK BABY!!!!!!!

wow the pucker with the poltergeist ventures

yayy another dumbsville video bruh les go

13:27 Idk if you were just right in his music sounding that similar or you just made a bomb ass remix of the pac and pals theme but either way this is fire
