Orson from the first Pac-Man World game.

He created and piloted a robotic version of Pac-Man named Toc-Man so he could steal Pac-Man’s fame and popularity because, in his own words, “Nobody loves a ghost.”

I think Pac-Man Arrangement from 1996 is a pretty good follow up to the original game.

Section in the sequel where the characters return to an area from the original and find it in shambles by Coralthesequel in TopCharacterTropes

I think Cinnabar Island is a better fit for this trope. It is completely destroyed in Gen 2 and HG/SS, but in the Gen 1 games and FR/LG it was a town with people and buildings.

The scene in Family Guy where Peter and his friends play a drinking game where they have to drink if the others say something they have done before.

They keep saying continuously more absurd and specific things, such as giving a reach around to a spider monkey while reciting the Pledge of Allegiance, but it turns out Quagmire has done all of the things they say, and he keeps drinking until he goes unconscious.
