Added by Wagnike2Ms. Pac-Man is an arcade game that is the sequel to the original Pac-Man arcade game. Originally, Ms. Pac-Man started as a hack called Crazy Otto by General Computer Corporation. However, since Bally-Midway became impatient in waiting for Namco to release Super Pac-Man, Bally-Midway then got the rights to Crazy Otto, changed the sprites to make it look like a Pac-Man game, and named it Ms. Pac-Man. But since the game was created without Namco's permisson, a lawsuit was filed against GCC and Midway. After the lawsuit, Namco got the rights to Ms. Pac-Man and released it in Japan.
