That lady is everywhere. She’s been on the Atari 2600, the Texas Instruments computer, the Commodore 64, the ColecoVision, and, of course, the Xbox 360, among many other platforms. Everything.
Well, now she’s available on iTunes. Yes, you can download her via Apple’s music and video store onto your iPod, and even play music in the background. Forget her husband/live-in partner - Ms. Pac-Man is the Hilary to Pac-Man’s Bill. She’s the powerful one in the family, no question.

Namco Networks announced the availability of Ms. PAC-MAN on the iTunes Store (www.itunes.com) for fans to purchase and download for play on the fifth generation iPod.
She joins PAC-MAN, which launched last September on iTunes, and is expected to be another must-have for iPod owners. Ms. PAC-MAN is available for purchase for $4.99 on the iTunes Store.
Fans’ favorite features are available in Ms. PAC-MAN on the iPod, including the four unique maze designs, 256 maze levels and the “coffee break” animated intervals from the original game. The iPod version also features retro art from the original arcade cabinet and a tutorial level, which allows players to perfect their ghost avoidance skills. This version also allows players to listen to the original retro game sounds or music from their fifth generation iPod library while playing.
Ms. PAC-MAN debuted in 1982 and was an instant classic, especially to an audience who was already hooked on PAC-MAN and was looking for the next dot-chomping challenge. Appearing on everything from backpacks to lunch boxes, Ms. PAC-MAN has become one of the most recognizable icons worldwide.
