The Pac-Man Dossier

Someone recently posted this incredibly detailed history and analysis of Pac-Man to Reddit: I was surprised and embarrassed to have some of my ideas about early gaming history challenged. I had no idea that Pac-Man and Space Invaders were both Japanese creations! I had always assumed that these games were American, and that Japan didn't really become a major player in the video game world until later on. Apparently instead they were leading the way from the get go!
