A strange little side quest
If Roborazzi sends you down a curiosity rabbit hole, start here. Pac-Man went on sale in 1980, and its creator Toru Iwatani famously linked the character's shape to a pizza with a slice missing. There is another connection worth keeping in the same mental pocket: Computer Space reached arcades in 1971 and became one of the earliest commercial electronic arcade games, even though its controls proved demanding for many players. That long chain of experiments is part of why arcade history still feels fresh when a game finds the right twist.
