For a recent art project I needed to colour in Pacman using an RGB colour code. A quick google only returned this page (with no information) and several discussions elsewhere about what paint to use. I've had a look at google images and have seen some where he looks almost orange.

So, is there a definitive answer to what colour Pacman is? Has his colour changed over time?

    He's yellow. If you want an exact RGB color, that's what an eyedropper is for, not Arqade.

In answer to your second question first, his color has changed over time due to various hardware constraints and artistic license. The original game has been re-released at least twenty times on platforms ranging from the Atari 2600 to Windows Phone 7, showing up as white, yellow, orange, and even grey:

Apple II

ColecoVision

GameBoy

As for the original Arcade machine, he was yellow. A quick use of the eye dropper with Microsoft Paint says the RGB values are 252, 234, and 63 respectively.
