Got Pac-Man Insomnia

Image Credit
Guess what? It's 4:30 in the morning and although it's been an incredibly awesome ( and long!) day, I'm still awake.

What am I doing with all my spare time, you may ask? Well, I'm playing old school Pac-Man on my Nintendo DS, of course!

And I've determined a couple of things while playing this game for the last 4 hours or so:
  1. I am TERRIBLE at Pac-Man
  2. My knee-jerks when I get eaten. I also cuss under my breath.
  3. Pinky ALWAYS gets me! What a douche!
  4. I can't get past the 3rd level (see #1).
  5. I seriously want to sell my Pac-Man items again.
Once upon a time, I used to sell my Pac-Man amigurumi in my Etsy shop, until one day, Namco got poopy cos they didn't want ANYONE on Etsy selling anything to do with Pac-Man. Their 30th anniversary was coming up & I guess art inspired by their iconic imagery was not something they were into.

I was NOT the only one who came home one day with all of my Pac-Man related items pulled from my shop without my consent. However, I'm probably one of the only people that didn't put anything Pac-Man related back up for sale in my shop a few days later.

And over a year later, I still wouldn't want to put my items up for sale, only to get reprimanded again.

So, since I'm up and since it seems that sleep won't be coming anytime soon, I thought I'd ask my rad readers:

Do you think I ought to start selling my Pac-Man related items again?
Would love to hear what you think in the comments! :D

    I was less worried about Namco and more worried about Etsy closing my account. if you go for it, let me know how it goes - I've got a pile of ghosts myself :) i often wonder if i eliminated the words pac-man if it would fly under the radar.

  5. Go for it. I've just started a small business making crocheted toys and other keepsakes and my daughter opened an Etsy shop to not to find out 24 hours later that Etsy suspended the shop, didn't give a reason and refused an appeal and shut the shop down.
    Good luck with your Pacman
