The latest iteration of Pac-Man is soon about to land in arcades and Namco jumped on the opportunity to celebrate it with a Pac-Man Battle Royale party at a bar in Wisconsin this past Thursday. In addition to giving bar goers an opportunity to check out the new game and help market the title as it nears a release, they also did some giveaways of Pac-Man merchandise, including cookies, molded figures of the Ghosts and shot glasses. You can see over sixty different pictures from the event in this album, which is a part of the Pac-Man Battle Royale Facebook fanpage.
All we need now is for every new arcade game to get party events going on around release time and that will make it a lot easier to get the hype rolling.
