Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaToru Iwatani: An arcade repairman. The Pac-Man Creator did not play himself because he doesn't speak English.
- GoofsSeveral of the game figures that the aliens use for their patterns are from games released after 1982, such as Tetris (1984), Arkanoid (1986), and Paperboy (1984). However, it is never claimed that the probe was launched in 1982, only that it included footage from that year. It could've been launched years later and included footage from later years too. Long delays aren't that rare in NASA. Also, the aliens could've updated their data by picking up Earth transmissions after the probe got their attention.
