    Overall Comparison

    Gorging myself on dots and fruit was never my thing.  With Donkey Kong, I could avoid barrels, take on a hulking Gorilla, and save a princess all in a day's work.  Each level had different goals and designs while Pacman was limited to walls, dots, and ghosts.

    Clearly, if Pacman were the better game, we would be playing Pacman Kart Racing and the Wii would have been released with a Pacman Galaxy title.  Looks like an easy win for the Mario family.

      It looks like you're right, but the intent was to point out the difference in franchise success.  Thanks for that piece of Pacman trivia, Zmonge.

      • well, the game appears to me a mediocre (at best) rip off of mario kart. The mario franchise is definitely more successful though. Look at super smash brothers, there are 5 or 6 mario characters, and zero pac men.

      • While I agree that Donkey Kong is a better game than Pac-Man, I don't think the successes of their franchises have any relevance to the quality of these particular games. Also, DK is hardly a paragon of variety; there are only 3 levels!
