It was later released in the US as Mr. Mouth. During the Midway Manufacturing v. Bandai-America case, the defense (Bandai) used the existence of this game in an unsuccessful attempt to show that Midway/Namco did not come up with the original idea for Pac-Man. TOMY later reissued this game as a tie in with the video game as The Original Pac-Man Game (元祖パックマンゲーム Ganso Pakkuman Geimu), this time with Ghost Monster game pieces.
