[up]Paperbrit: Sonic actually has games people notice.

Pac Man... what's he doing now... I think maybe he had a cartoon and a game on the Gamecube?

Sakurai claimed that wouldn't have been a factor, but apparently, it was. We got two big-name Guest Fighter characters plus one guy who no one has cared about since the '80s ended.

Pac-Man World was my first video game, so I'm very okay with this.

Snake seems buried and in the ground, though.

Any possibility that leak was leaving out some other characters (like hidden characters)?

Like the Mii fighters, every character has three options for each special move.

Pac-Man? Huh.

Oddly enough, Mii is the only new fighter who I am any amount hyped for.

Oh hey Game and Watch.

[up][up][up]I didn't know that game got a sequel.

I didn't know it was a game until I found it at a resale shop.

Pac's had a new cartoon going on for a while now, as well as games based off of that cartoon, so it's not like he's completely unknown...

People realized Namco was developing the game, they just wanted characters that not nearly as many people actually care about.

Really haven't been seeing all that much clamor for him even outside of this site, for the record.

Yes, Pac-Man HAS had a cheap cash-in cartoon and two cheap shovelware games made recently! Clearly Namco respects the character and doesn't seem him as a half-useless relic that they will only ever use for a quick buck!

This was the freshest image of Sonic in peoples minds before he was announced for Brawl. And currently, both characters have undergone terrible redesigns and are set to star in shitty cartoons. Sonic and Pac Man are practically brothers at this point.

The difference is that, while Sonic's games were indeed free-falling in quality at the time, he was still RELEVANT.

And yet here he is, chosen over every Tekken, Soul, and Tales character that would've been a better fit for this type of game. Pac-Man was chosen, he's not based on the cartoon design and isn't in a fucking robot. Let's just accept what has happened, and not get into an argument about it.

Pulse, seriously, cool it. He's still extremely memorable and everybody knows who he is.

I'm pretty sure he's Namco's mascot anyway. He was a very obvious choice.

[up]Memorable, yes.

Presently Relevant? Doubtful.
