Is pac-man a pizza with a slice taken out?
Yes, but there's more to the story, apparently. The game's creator, Toru Iwatani, has said repeatedly that Pac-Man's shape was inspired by a pizza he saw with a slice missing. However, he also said this in another 1986 interview: INTERVIEWER: Is the story about the pizza really true? IWATANI: Well, it's half true. In Japanese the character for mouth (kuchi) is a square shape. It's not circular like the pizza, but I decided to round it out. So, it sounds like the pizza was his original inspiration, but the actual design was based on the game's concept, a mouth eating food in a maze. Judge for yourself.
