![]() This is an interesting way to bring a bit more of a challenge into the games, though some work better than others. For instance, Pac-Man’s challenge is to eat the most ghosts in three minutes, while Dig Dug gives you three minutes to see how many enemies you can crush with a single rock (the challenge doesn’t end after you drop the first rock, but you get more points for every enemy you crush with a single rock, if that makes sense). Each game has a special challenge to fulfill within a certain time limit. The games themselves play as they did in the arcade but now also have a Challenge Mode. However, one would think that with the current consoles we’d get more than just the normal staples and a few more, especially considering how many arcade games Namco has under their name. The few non-staple games we did get are good in their own right, namely Splatterhouse and Tank Force which I’ve rarely ever played, so it was nice to finally be able to give them a shot. While the games on here are pretty good games in their own right, there are some interesting omissions that we’ve seen in previous compilations such as Rally-X, Mappy, Bosconian, and strangely Xevious which I figured would have been almost a given. One thing that caught my eye right off was that there are only ten games (well, eleven but I’ll get to that in a bit). Namco Museum for the Switch brings together ten classic Namco arcade games: Pac-Man, Galaga, Dig Dug, The Tower of Druaga, SkyKid, Rolling Thunder, Galaga ’88, Splatterhouse, Tank Force, and Rolling Thunder 2. The point is with Namco Museum now out for the Nintendo Switch, it’s time to see what all Namco has thrown our way this time. Don’t get me wrong, I enjoy a good arcade classic now and then, but there’s only so many times one can enjoy the same games before they need something different…well, usually anyway. ![]() If there’s another thing they’re known for its releasing arcade compilations for just about every major system since the original PlayStation. If there’s one thing Namco’s known for, it’s their quality arcade titles such as Pac-Man, Galaga, Dig Dug, and Rolling Thunder.
