As I was offline for almost 10 years I got alot of time to kill and I wanted to do some fan art on my fave game Pac-Man. So I started drawing it all on inkscape a program that I got it for free from my freind.
The whole back story on making this fanfic is that I wanted to have Pac-Man to be someone like George Bailey from 'It's A Wonderful Life' that it's his birthday and thinks he got to the point nobody seem to cares about him and as Sam from 'Quantum Leap' from leaping in other video game characters seeing that he's not alone in the universe. And the whole plot of the story is that way back in the Pac-Land he save a little fairy and took her back home. Well here the fairy onces again need his help and trying to bring him to her but got lost in the doorway and gone to other worlds from Super Mario to Sonic world and like 'Quantum Leap' jumping from one game character to an other to to get to the fairy that beeing held by the evil Mezmaron that wanted to use the fairy's powers to enter many other world to rule.
Then the little fairy princess asking Pac-Man to help finding a magic door to get back to her home. For your information if you ever played the classic 1984 Pac-Land then you know whats going to happen next.
Then Pac-Man found a house to hide from the Ghost but then he finds out that its a haunted house. As he trying to fine a way out he soons fine out that it was the evil wizard Mezmaron that wanted to use the fairy's powers to enter many other world to rule.
As Pac-Man falls on to a flower garden the fairy princess mother The Fairy Queen walls up to Pac-Man thanking him him by saving her little girl with a gift of Winged Red Boots thats gives him Air Jumping and will help him to reach his home safely.

Now the fun begins. In this story I wanted Pac-Man live the life of other video game characters to give you an idea ever seen the sci-fi tv show Quantum Leap where Sam is leaping on into other people's body and we can only see Sam but where he's near any mirror we can see the body of the other person well here Pac-Man is leaping into other video game characters as the world see only the main character like Mario but we see only Pac-man as Mario.
Screen: Frogger 1981
Background Song: REO Speedwagon - Roll With The Changes
I love the old Saturday Supercade that aired in Saturday in 1983 and seeing some of my fave arcade games come to life and one of there show was Frogger, in the cartoon Frogger he plays as a ace reporter of the swamp who works at the Swamp Gazette. He and his friends Shellshock "Shelly" Turtle and Fanny Frog go out in search of crazy stories (sometimes about human behavior) to publish in the swamp's newspapers. Frogger also has to deal with his gruff boss and editor-in-chief Tex Toadwalker but we all know in the game, he often gets flattened or has an encounter with an alligator.
Screen: Q*bert 1982
Background Song: Boston - Something About You
To continue on using Saturday Supercade cartoons next is one of my fave arcade classic game Q*bert. In the cartoon it's set in a 1950s inspired world set in the town of Q*Berg, a teenage fur-covered creature named Q*bert, his girlfriend Q*Tee, his brother Q*Bit, and his friends Q*Ball, Q*Val and Q*Mongus must deal with the resident bullies Coily, Ugg, Wrong Way, and Viper. Features both "block-hopping" scenes, "swearing" bubbles and occasional flying disc, all from the original game. New to the cartoon was Q*bert's use of "slippy-doos", a black ball projectile which he loaded and fired through his nose, producing an oil slick wherever the balls splattered. Slick and Sam.

Metal Gear is one of my all time fave MSX2 game and yes I have a Sony Hitbit MSX2 and lots of games and one of Metal Gear I have both the Eng and Japanese version but I also still love to play the NES even if its a water down game.

He is sent by his superior Big Boss to the fictional South African fortress Outer Heaven, with the goal of finding the missing squad member Gray Fox and investigating a weapon known as Metal Gear. However, Big Boss is later revealed to be the leader of Outer Heaven, which he has created as a place for soldiers to fight free of any ideology that he believes has been forced upon them by governments. He fights Snake and, although he loses, Metal Gear 2: Solid Snake reveals Big Boss' survival. The two face off, with Snake once again achieving victory.

Screen: Asteroids 1979
Background Song: Lynyrd Skynyrd - Free Bird
Okay I was thinking how could I make a story on a Atari game Asteroid? You're just a triangle ship in space and shotting rocks well I found an idea. I used one of my 1982 book call "The Story of Atari Asteroids 1 edition" its a read-along audio recordings, each book has black and white illustrations on each page, as well as the text of the story. This is a story book that tells of a Recon Patrol pilot named John Strohmeyer and a female android co-pilot, who is investigating the disappearance of an ore-carrier. He enters a asteroid belt, where he meets a Cosmic Space Patrol, and they are attacked by pirates that have hijacked the ship they where supposed to investigate. The ore ship is destroyed by the pirates, and then the asteroid rushes at his ship, but is the asteroid is destroyed by the Cosmic Space Patrol ship, revealing a hidden pirate command center as it explodes. After battle and suffering from some damage, John's ship is towed to safety. Some of the images here will look very similar to other classic Atair art works but I just love to see them oin this story.
