Coolest Shit Ever: The Original Drawings For Pac Man – 30 Years Later
23 Jun, 2010 in Coolest Shit Ever, Doodles, fnordI grew up with Pac Man, in an arcade along with Donkey Kong, Joust, BattleZone, and all the other classic games. And Tron! Remember Tron? Racing those stupid cars along the grid… Good time, Youdopia.
Well, the man who designed Pac Man (Toru Iwatani) attended a gaming conference in the Netherlands, and brought along his book of drawings, for Pac Man. That’s kind of like Paul McCartney bringing the Sgt. Pepper’s multitracks to a record show. Those doodles are without a doubt the Coolest Shit Ever.


I really love that it has his signature mark in the middle of his drawing. Like the ancient wood blocks… only cooler…
