I'm not sure if this is really worth mentioning, but Jr. Pac-Man also featured anti-aliased text rather than using the default built-in text font that most video games used at the time. --[[User:Birdhombre|Birdhombre]] 19:21, 14 Mar 2005 (UTC)

== Tim ==

Why was the note on the orange ghost being renamed Tim removed? That was his name. The orange ghost in Pac-Man is Clyde, and in Ms. Pac-Man it's Sue; in this game, it's Tim. And what's this about "alien ghosts"? Yum-yum is Blinky's daughter, with a bow on her head. [[User:Birdhombre|Birdhombre]] 17:34, 15 Jun 2005 (UTC)

:I don't know enough about this game to say what's up with the "alien ghost" stuff in this article, but I did remember the orange/brown ghost being named Tim (it's in the intro; the game names off all the ghosts). Sooo.. I put the 'Tim' note back in. Hopefully nobody removes it. :P -[[User:Locke Cole|Locke Cole]] 12:32, 15 October 2005 (UTC)

"Clyde", "Sue" and "Tim" were all reportedly the names of programmers. It seems the English name of the fourth ghost was kept reserved for inhouse representation.

== Kill screen info ==

I added some info about the kill screen, but wasn't able to add a link to the source (www.digitpress.com/eastereggs/arcadejrpacman.htm) since that site is blocked. The kill screen is reproducible in MAME, though... not sure what other source might be appropriate to link to, if one is even needed.

== Bonuses ==

I think it would be a good idea to place a list of bonuses and their point values in this page. [[Special:Contributions/108.71.122.17|108.71.122.17]] ([[User talk:108.71.122.17|talk]]) 16:21, 15 March 2017 (UTC)
