1127: Pac-Man Museum PS3 (delisted) \\ Menus, all games, & Championship Edition modes!
1Popping through the games, menu options, and the modes of Pac-Man Championship Edition in Pac-Man Museum on PS3!
(According to delistedgames dot com, this PS3 version was delisted somewhere between 2019 and 2020--probably July 2020, when for instance the mini version of Championship Edition was delisted too. : P (Speculation is that it was because the games still credited Namco Bandai Games instead of the newer Bandai Namco Games or the then-latest permutation, Bandai Namco Entertainment--and they didn't want to pay to patch them all? : P)

- CE was 2007, Battle Royale was 2010
- CE has been Pac-Man creator Toru Iwatani's last work in the series to date, as CE Project Supervisor (his other Pac credits per Wikipedia https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Toru_Iwatani#Works are Pac-Man (Designer), Super Pac-Man (Designer), Pac-Land (Producer), Pac-Mania (Director))
- I was confusing Pac-Man Championship Edition DX (2nd CE game, on PS3) with Pac-Man Championship Edition 2 (3rd CE game, on PS4); I did NOT like DX; 2 looks pretty bad as well
- As far as CE on PS4 goes, what my very slow, very confused brain FINALLY worked out is that
-- Namco Museum Archives Vol 1 and Vol 2 on PS4 are collections of Namco NES games, ported or emulated or whatever by M2; Vol 1 has their CE "demake" (extra flashy top and bottom border VFX though) (Vol 2 has a Gaplus demake)
-- PS4 also has Pac-Man Museum+, which has CE
-- There's no stand-alone PS4 version of CE
As far as I can tell from quick skimming of the Championship Edition modes, the differences are: Championship Mode and Extra Mode 1 are 5 minutes rather than 10, Extra Mode 1's tunnels are primarily horizontal, Challenge Mode 1 may have different power pellet distribution schemes, Challenge Mode 2 is a dark mode, and Extra Mode 2 and 3 are pretty much just different mazes.
