He didn't create Pacman, but he founded Namco.
The creator of Pacman is actually Toru Iwatani, who is very much alive.

The women of New Vegas ask me a lot if there's a Mrs. New Vegas. Well, of course there is! You're her. And you're still just as perfect as the day we met.

i believe someone mentioned in another thread that he appears as a janitor near the beginning of the movie, while someone else is portraying him.

I still think it's funny how they were originally going to call him "Puck Man" but changed the name because they were afraid vandalists would change the "P" into an "F"on the cabinets. I also remember always playing Pac Man and Centipede at this one laundromat when our dad would take us there to do laundry since at the time we lived in an apartment and didn't have a washer and dryer.
