Pac-Man Plug & Play Games
There is a series of JAKKS Pacific Plug & Play controllers that are Pac-Man themed. Most of them feature either Pac-Man or Ms. Pac-Man as the main game and then include other Namco arcade games with it. Bandai also released their own in 2012 called Pac-Man Connect and Play.
Other compilations featuring Pac-Man
There are also many compilations featuring Pac-Man that don't have Pac-Man's name in the title. The most popular example is the Namco Museum series (every Namco Museum title features Pac-Man as the mascot, even on the few rare moments where the original Pac-Man game is not included) which has been on almost every video game console since the fifth generation, a list of many other Namco compilations (most of them featuring Pac-Man in some way) can be found here.
Some notable examples with the "Namco Museum" title:
This is not a full list of Namco Museum titles, for a full list, go to the "Namco Museum" article.
