Sod the rest of the shit, if it has Pacman Vs. on it, that's worth the admission price alone

It's a bit poo isn't it? Why did the PSP version get 17+ games and the DS has 8?

Pacman Vs!

This is the bomb - Tingles Balloon Fight. One of them Club Nintendo goodies what we're not allowed to have...

I do love balloon fight, I wonder why we never saw any sequels other than the stellar Balloon Kid on the Gameboy?

Namco Museum Remix (Wii) looks sort of okay:

It is 'set to feature five ground-up "remixed" versions of recognizable licenses, including Pac'n Roll Remix, Galaga Remix, Pac-Motos Remix, Rally-X Remix and Gator Panic Remix. The games will not only feature all-new graphics, but they will sport new Wii-enhanced controls that, according to Namco, will enable players to "... whip, swing, twist and shake up the video game classics."'

On top of everything else, Namco Museum will include nine additional classics: Galaxian, Dig Dug, Mappy, Xevious, Gaplus, Super Pac-Man, Pac & Pal, Pac-Mania and Cute Q.

More info and screenshots here: http://uk.wii.ign.com/articles/789/789656p1.html

Agreed.

PacMan VS was utterly brillent on the gamecube.

Personaly, I think it should be expanded, with online mode, and made into a game in itself.
Online mode would also need VoIP however. But thats been done before on the DS.

Higher capacity of the UMDs?

Not an issue - the Konami retro DS set emulates 15 games and the ROM is only 16 meg.

They'll probably release a seperate pacman compilation like they did for the GBA, thats probably part of the reason there aren't many games on the Namco Museum card.
