From 6-player beat \u2018em ups to racing games, and every style in-between. Of course, my good friend Pac-Man was always there to quench my thirst for maze-running action. Arcades were, and still are, a place where you can discover something so incredibly fun and vividly designed that you won\u2019t want to miss a pixel of the action. This is exactly what happened when I first discovered <em>Pac-Mania<\/em> in 1987.<\/p>\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1080\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/news.xbox.com\/en-us\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/06\/PAC-MANIA-copy-d8a73d0fa6e156031454.jpg?resize=1920%2C1080&amp;ssl=1\" alt=\"PAC-MAN MUSEUM+ Screenshot\" class=\"wp-image-166666\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\"><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<p>My grandpa would sometimes take me to this arcade shaped like a castle and give me a few quarters so I could seek out <em>Pac-Man<\/em> or <em>Super Pac-Man<\/em>.
