Good to get some 3rd party games I guess, most of the major 1st party NES games are already there. But these aren’t that interesting.

Alright! I was wondering when they’d at a Pac-Man game on one of these libraries, seeing as we’ve basically got everyone else. Don’t know about the other two though. So I’ll check them out.

NES PAC-MAN is pretty neat

Mendel Palace (Quinty) was Game Freak’s first game.

Interestingly for Pac-Man they used the release year of the Tengen version (1988) for America. Nintendo doesn’t like to acknowledge the fact that they originally released Pac-Man officially in America because they went rogue and rereleased it as an unlicensed game later. Usually they use the 1993 date of when Namco officially rereleased it. They’re still using the 1993 rerelease box art and ROM though.

Makes me wish we had an Arcade Online because the NES ports of arcade games were never quite right. Lightyears better than Atari though
I know there’s Arcade Archive, but it’s not quite the same.

GBA really is just getting left to rot 😭

I remembered the commercial for Mendel Palace, they deemphasize the cuteness of the Japanese version.

You know what, it will be nice to have the NES port of Pac-Man on NSO that I can quickly fire up and play a few rounds.
Can’t say much for the other two.
It is nice to see the NES library getting updates again.

Mendal Palace and The Tower of Druaga have interested me for a long time, and you can’t go wrong with PAC MAN.

If this updates the NES Classics app with the HDR enhanced CRT filter, I’ll call it a win, as this is the main app that will benefit most from it.

I grew up playing Tower of Druaga on my DS on Namco Museum DS and they had a guide for it, and I remember beating it as a kid! Glad to see they added it to NSO 🙂

Kinda curious at this point if these would necessarily be games they could’ve always added or if this is only due to their seeming increase in working with Bandai.

The NES Pacman was a great home console port of Pacman. It was an almost perfect copy of the arcade version of Pacman from its colour and its sounds.
