An early storyboard show that originally, instead of his family (who are based on other Pac-Man games), Pac-Man was going to save some Namco characters like Dig-Dug, Mappy and Whirlo, and Valkyrie (from the Valkyrie Series ) excluding Ms.An earlier idea was a Namco-based RPG with Namco characters (including Pac-Man as one of the main characters), but this was scrapped when the head of Namco wanted them to do a Pac-Man 3D platformer.The game was canceled due to the head of Namco not liking what he saw and fired most of the team making it, meaning they had to start over from scratch. The game was originally going to be a 3D platformer in a similar style to Super Mario 64 with some Tomb Raider elements called Pac-Man Ghost Zone and the story involves a boy who was sucked into a Pac-Man arcade cabinet (after abusing the cabinet and making fun of the game) and becomes Pac-Man after.While it didn't get realized, assets from it, most importantly Pac-Man's redesign, would later be used in Pac-Man Party and Pac-Man and the Ghostly Adventures.Ī screen shot of the beta to Pacman Ghost Zone with beta name as well.

However, Namco did not want to pay the license to use it. The Pac-Man Fever video game was originally going to use the song of the same name as the title screen theme.The only evidence of the game's existence is from a Nintendo Power article from 1995. A scrapped SNES game that would make use of the Exertainment Bike peripheral.It was scrapped due to its dark and grim nature. When a Pac-family member was in the gray state, they would briefly help Pacula and bite the others. Upon eating a Power Pellet, Pacula could bite the good Pacs and temporarily turn them gray.

Instead of ghosts, Count Pacula is chased by the Pac-Man family (with a new character named 'Cousin Six Pac') holding wooden stakes. The game was to be a maze-pinball hybrid, very similar to Baby Pac-Man.

Midway once had plans to create a game called Count Pacula.

Working Titles included Super Pac-Man (Not to be confused with the game of the same name), Pac-Woman, Pac-Girl, Pac-Lady. Midway bought the rights and made the game into an actual Pac-Man game. The titular Otto was Pac-Man with legs and the ghosts were changed into apple-shaped Cartoon Creatures with antenna. Pac-Man started out as an enhancement kit for Pac-Man called Crazy Otto created by a group of programmers.

Pac-Man was planned to have an RV-like shelter/trap in the game but due to size limitations, the idea was scrapped.
