Arcade Game: Mappy (1983 Namco)

[@Nitroxity]

This may very well be my favorite arcade game. Played this back in the 2000's on an old Plug N Play thing. Still a masterpiece to this day.

[@renz5878]

The same thing with Ms. Pacman and galaga? I still have one but it unfortunately broke and now the screen is all jacked up when i play it

[@Nitroxity]

Yep! Also happened to have Xevious and Pole Position on there. Mine broke too due to me leaving old batteries in the thing. If I'm really thinking about it, I have that little machine to thank for getting me into video games in the first place.

[@Layla.63]

Nitroxity I had the joy stick games too. Never needed to go to an arcade. Had the games at my house. I was little when i started playing them. The good memories.

I would play this with my dad

[@astrojade4802]

Same dude, it completely slippped out of my mind I couldnt even remember the game itself, only the tune. Then i came across this tune in gamepltely who regularly posts pubg funnny vids and added this tune in one of the scenes ft. dr disrespect. This game reallly throws me back to my childhood days.... The one game i would always play after coming back from school. Good times!!

I hope it gets a reboot someday for the switch and have Mappy up there with Pac-Man, Mario, Sonic and others

[@henriquedearruda8902]

You know I got a good idea maybe Namco should make a reboot of this game with a better story than just running around knocking out the cast and à limited amount of levels unlike this one the story can be mappy being the first mouse police you heard of a police dog but not a police mouse and the main villain is a crime boss that is not that red cat and Mappy will have a whole franchise oh and girl friend that is a lady mouse who he will end up as his wife and be made the official mascot of Namco.

People said a game about opening doors sucked when Mario hotel came out, they must not have played this.

[@TooCooFoYou]

That's because Mappy isn't entirely about opening doors.

Mario was not known for opening doors unless he is going into a castle. To fair all of Marios games like; Mario teaches typing etc, failed because of the same thing.

Someone at Disney Interactive must've LOVED Mappy, because there was a Mappy clone in the Toy Story 2 Activity Center called "Toy Shelf Showdown". Although, they kind of combined the doors and collectables into a single item that dropped vertically instead of attacking horizontally, which could crush enemies like in Dig-Dug, while the projectile attack was Buzz's wrist laser, which would immobilize enemies for a few seconds.

So did I Kitty -- just FYI I have this game on my home PC. That green coin you mentioned is the invincible ghost named "Gosenzo" -- he is the ancestor of "Nyamco", i.e. the big red cat. Gosenzo appears when you take too long to clear a level -- and once he appears, Mappy has NO CHANCE of escaping, because he can go through doors and microwaves (naturally) and he is MUCH FASTER than Mappy -- he can kill Mappy even if he's bouncing on a trampoline.
