Developed by Atari in 1982. Considered a substantial improvement over the conversion of the original Pac-Man for the Atari 2600. Four mazes are included, with no intermissions. The mazes are not exact copies of the arcade originals, but contain many of the key elements (number of tunnels, color, etc.) Regardless of maze, only two stages need to be completed in order to move on to the next maze. | Developed by Atari in 1982.

* ''It's worth noting that while the Atari 2600 conversion of Ms. Pac-Man was far better received than the conversion of [[Pac-Man]], in 2009 talented hacker Nukey Shay set about correcting some of the cosmetic mistakes found in the original conversion. The blue maze background has been replaced with black, the dots are now a distinct color from the maze (in accordance with the colors chosen in the arcade version), and Ms. Pac-Man has red lips and a red bow. This hack is known as "[http://www.atariage.com/forums/topic/146664-ms-pac-man-gets-a-facelift/ Ms. Pac-Man multicolor]"'' | |||

There are several new extended mazes that repeat in patterns, and eventually the ghosts stop blinking and you reach one final maze that continues forever, until you end your game. | There are several new extended mazes that repeat in patterns, and eventually the ghosts stop blinking and you reach one final maze that continues forever, until you end your game. | ||

Opcode Games, developer of new titles for the Colecovision system, has developed a homebrew cartridge that includes versions of [[Pac-Man]], [[Pac-Man Plus]], and Ms. Pac-Man, with the aim of making them as faithful to the original arcade versions as they can possibly be. Despite limitation on the display resolution permitted by a television set, the conversions are considered to be quite accurate and well made. | |||
