RE: pac-man
Wow. Namco-Bandai and Warner Bros. must be on to something big if they're doing that. Besides, Shout Factory doesn't own the rights to Pac-Man, anyway. Warner Bros. owns the rights, and unfortunately, I don't have an XBox 360 or XBox Live to use it, or Viva Piñata for that matter.

I just own a Wii, dont really care for a 360, not my kinda machine. I hope they will release it on dvd cause a virtual copy is not exactually what i want.

RE: pac-man
Warner recently said at an HTF Chat that either PacMan, Smurfs or Plasticman will be announced for DVD at Comicon but I think all three are destined for DVD. They also said Captain Planet is a zero.

RE: pac-man
I hope Pac-Man is destined for DVD, because I haven't seen most of the series. Maybe it would have some good extras chosen by Warner Bros and Namco-Bandai.

RE: pac-man
What do you mean "trying"? If they wanted it out it would be out. What is your source for "trying"?

RE: pac-man
I'd be willing to bet Pac-Man would be popular enough for a retail release.

RE: pac-man
Just rumors but one it's either more problems with the masters then they realised, two they are wanting to track down the non-syndicated master versions. You know what happened with Swat Kats, why did that get pulled? Hmmm...

RE: pac-man
I didn't know pac-man was edited in syndication. It was only ever shown on cable channels after it's original run.

RE: pac-man
You do know when shows go on cable what happens? They always get cut down to allow room for more commericals. Pac-man was broadcast on ABC and then went to cable, do you think it was uncut? Look what happened to Swat Kats, same thing, they released the syndicated version by mistake on dvd. They don't want to do that again.

Ah I understand now. I guess it's for the best then. I only remember watching the show on boomerang. I wasn't even born when it originally aired.

RE: pac-man
Yeah that's great news. I have been waiting a very long time for this to come to DVD. I broke down 2 WEEKS ago and bought it on the Zune Marketplace. I will still buy the hard copy for upscaling and hard copy purposes.

RE: pac-man

I really liked this show as a kid. But it just dosen't hold up well (and believe me, I give many shows the benefit of the doubt). I watched a couple on Youtube last night. They seem to all have the same formula, despite slightly differing plots.

1.Ghost mosters are chasing Pac-Man (or family)

2.Pac-Man gets power-pellets and chomps Ghost monsters

3.Ghost monsters return to Mezmeron in shame

4. Mezmeron reveals his next plan, sends Ghost Monsters back out

5.Ghost Monsters do whatever the plan is, almost succeed

6.Pac-Man &/or family/ friends get more power pellets and chomp Ghost monsters again (end of episode)

Seeing this 26 times in a row can get very annoying. Even the Superfriends were not this repetative. I am glad I watched a couple of these first as I too was all set to buy this simply for nostalgia reasons.  But on the other hand...my kids (5&6) loved it. Maybe if I can get it super cheap, Ill get it for them.
