PAC-MAN's Fire Hydrant down special pushes opponents away with blasts of water. You can drop the hydrant on top of your opponents to damage them, but they can also attack it to damage you if you're standing on it! His Pac-Jump up special spawns a trampoline he can jump on three times—the third jump is especially high!

These round, flashing items are found in all four corners of the stage. When PAC-MAN eats one, the normally fearsome ghosts turn blue and run off; that's PAC-MAN's cue to take them out. In Smash Bros., PAC-MAN eats a Power Pellet with his side special, sending him rushing in the direction he was facing.

All kinds of fruits appear in the original PAC-MAN—along with some other items in later rounds—and they're a great way to rack up a high score. Here, PAC-MAN's standard special lets him throw one of these. Different ones have different movement patterns and launching ability. Press the button again to pick!
Fire hydrants appear as obstacles in the game PAC-LAND. Some of them shoot water, and some even reveal items when pushed. In Smash Bros., PAC-MAN's down special puts a fire hydrant under him that shoots water to push foes. Try dropping it on someone returning to the stage!

Each of the four types of ghost in PAC-MAN behaves a bit differently. In Smash Bros., they appear in 8-bit form and move around the stage in their own quirky way, tormenting the fighters. The longer they chase you, the faster they move—and even if you get a Power Pellet and defeat them, they'll be back soon enough!

The colorful ghosts in PAC-MAN generally act as pursuers, chasing down the hero as he searches for food. But feed the hero a Power Pellet, and now it's the ghosts' turn to run! They take on this new form as they run for their ghostly lives. In Smash Bros., these scaredy-ghosts will appear in the PAC-MAZE stage if you grab a Power Pellet.

They take on this new form as they flee for their ghostly lives. In this game, too, you can see the ghosts in this form if you grab a Power Pellet in the PAC-MAZE stage.
A stage where you can collect Pac-Dots and defeat scared ghosts, just like in the original PAC-MAN! Eating enough Pac-Dots will nab you a Power Pellet, which boosts your abilities in all kinds of ways. Attacks in particular get about 1.7 times as strong! If an opponent earns a Power Pellet, you'd better destroy it before they grab it.

In the side-scrolling world of PAC-LAND, PAC-MAN runs endlessly until he reaches Fairyland. Why? Because there's a fairy hiding under his hat who wants to get back home. Ghosts will try their best to get in the way, but PAC-MAN is determined to get the job done so he can go back home himself and see his family.
In PAC-LAND, PAC-MAN's quest to help a lost fairy get home to the Mother Fairy takes him through all sorts of places. As always, though, ghosts do their best to get in PAC-MAN's way. When he finally gets the fairy home safe and sound, the Mother Fairy gives him a pair of magic boots so that he can quickly fly back to his family.

PAC-MAN must have always dreamed of raising a family in a house that looks like a face. Well, after spending ages eating power pellets and taking out ghosts, his dream came true!

Trivia
Despite appearing in Pac-Man's moveset, the Blinky, Inky, Pinky and Clyde trophies are listed as Series Related rather than Character Related in the Wii U version (in the 3DS version, they are instead listed as Stage due to their appearance in Pac-Maze.)
Notes
^The PAC-MAN's House trophy states that Pac-Man moved into a yellow house in a later game released about twenty years after Pac-Land, which was released in 1984. The first game to depict Pac-Man living in a yellow house is Pac-Man 2: The New Adventures, released in 1994 - only ten years after Pac-Land. However, the Game Boy Advance version of Pac-Man World does fully qualify for the trophy's statement as a 2004 release with a yellow house.
