Personage the CAP-Man was inspired in pizza

The CAP-Man was created by Tohru Iwatani, to designer of the games of the Namco of Japan, in 1980. The personage was idealized during one supper between friends, inhaled in a pizza with a slice lacking. Its original name, then abandoned for the company, was Puck-Man. The change of the name was determined to prevent that “Puck” turned one trocadilho maldoso between falantes the English language.
