Namco Bandai has announced today that they plan on bringing a new title to the DS this Summer. With a title like Namco Museum DS, we wonder what it could include? Lucky for us, we have a press release that spells it all out. This game is to feature 8 different titles from Namco's past. These titles, which are their best-sellers (natch), include:- Pac-Man
- Pac-Man Vs.
- Galaga
- Xevious
- Dig Dug II
- Galaxian
- Mappy
- Tower of Druaga
[Via press release]

Pac-Man Vs.? I can only hope they mean a ds version of the gamecube title. That game would be great in wireless handheld form!

Do these games even sell? There has been a Namco Arcade on every system I can think of and they are all the same. That said, I will have to buy this because Pacman Vs. is the best game featuring Pacman since he experimented with cross dressing in Ms. Pacman.

What, Namco importing some really old games again?
Do they still make new games? :p

I don't know if you noticed this, but I totally called this one two weeks ago to the day:

I'm still stunned:

No Ms.Pac-Man? That's seems odd. It's been part of their previous collections.
And yes, these do sell to suckers like me. I pretty much grew up in arcades so these are like old friends. I have the Namco collection for Dreamcast, PS2, and GBA. I also have one of those self-contain controller games that connects directly to your TV that plays these Nacmo games too. Not sure if I'll get this since I can play the GBA version on the DS. I also just bought the Konami classics collection that was just released.
And yes, I have MAME too for my PC.
