NES Pac-Man on GBA in the Classic collection. The grandfather of maze games, intact and recognizable. Fun for five minutes, hard to stay much longer.

Description
GBA version of the original Pac-Man released on NES, published by Nintendo in the USA and Europe in June 2004. The player guides Pac-Man through mazes to eat all the dots while fleeing the four ghosts Blinky, Pinky, Inky and Clyde. Special Power Pellets in corners to counter-attack and eat the blue ghosts, levels that progressively speed up. Faithful to the original arcade version. Part of the Classic NES Series.

Is Classic NES Series - Pac-Man still worth playing in 2026?
A handheld re-release of the original Pac-Man, this Classic NES Series offers the arcade maze in its purest form: eat the pellets, manage the ghosts and chase the high score. The timeless efficiency of Namco's game design still works, and the controls are instant. The content stays minimalist and the conversion adds nothing to the original model. A comfort hit for fans of retro arcade and scoring, but a superfluous option for anyone who already owns one of its countless ports.
