Though still not announced for release in North America, Namco Bandai’s first (of what will likely be many) iterations of Pac-Man and Galaga on 3DS has already gotten more attractive. The latest issue of Famitsu reports that, in addition to newfangled gyroscope-controlled versions of the two classics, Pac-Man & Galaga Dimensions will include Pac-Man Championship Edition and Galaga Legions, plus the original arcade versions of Pac-Man and Galaga.
The arcade ports will make use of the 3DS’s autostereoscopic effect to create the illusion of looking down on the original coin-op machines — though purists can always turn down the 3D slider, we assume. Players will also be able to choose between multiple cabinet variants. Of course, this will all seem quaint when we’re writing about the seventh repackaging of Pac-Man and Galaga for 3DS four years from now.
