NAMCO MUSEUM also offers a challenge mode, presenting players new and unique challenges for each game, giving classic games a fresh twist. Players nostalgic for the classic coin-op era can transform their Nintendo Switch into a miniature cabinet by turning the handheld console vertically for a taller, slimmer screen that replicates the original arcade experience. With the ranking system, players can compete to earn the number one spot on the worldwide challenger board for their favourite Namco arcade classics. Through the Nintendo Switch, these retro classics can be played anytime, anywhere, and against anyone through the game’s online ranking system. With NAMCO MUSEUM, players will be transported back to the days when coin-operated arcades reigned supreme, for a truly nostalgic experience. Give me a reason to buy your games, Nintendo! Already have FOUR.A staple of a number of console generations – previous iterations have appeared on consoles before, including on PS2 and Nintendo DS – Namco Museum (released exclusively on the Nintendo Switch) features catalogue favourites from Namco’s classic arcade collection, including PAC-MAN, Dig Dug, Galaga, Galaga ‘88, The Tower of Druaga, Rolling Thunder, Rolling Thunder 2, SkyKid, Splatterhouse, and Tank Force. I’m hoping to have 80 Switch games when the Switch lifecycle is complete. So far, the library is hit and miss, but all libraries are like that. I’m hoping Switch brings us another Golden Age of gaming with its tasty game cards. It looks WAY BETTER than AAA Western Gaming.Īdd in Pac-Man, Galaga, Dig Dug… what a great package! All on cartridge! Yum! I don’t think this has been done since Turbografx 16. It’s worth buying just to get a physical version of Galaga ’88 in cartridge form. You see, reader? The emailer knows I’m not shitting around by noticing Galaga ’88 in the Namco Museum (such a great game!). This might really be one of the best games on the system. Tank Force is a sequel to the Arcade Version of that game with a 4 Player Multi Player and it’s a lot of fun.Ĭonsidering The Namco Museum Collection might also get a physical release (it is listed with a physical cover on Nintendo’s website) I am really excited for the Namco Museum collection because it has Galaga 88.īut there is one game I am also really looking forward to and it’s Tank Force.Ī while ago wrote to you about the game Battle City that was never released in the West but was a fun 2 Player game.
