How to unlock this easter egg! Fulfill these requirements in each included game:
Pole Position II: Clear any course.
Ms. Pac-Man: Clear Round 5
Galaxian: Clear Round 5
Dig Dug: Clear Round 10. Continuing is allowed.
The Tower of Druaga: Clear Round 60. Continuing is allowed.
Phozon: Clear World 2. Using the stage select is not allowed.
You may toggle the in-game settings, including having the maximum number of lives, and Phozon's stage select can be turned on, as long as it is not used. Also, keep in mind that these achievements must all be performed on the same save file, which you select after starting any given game.

Godspeed for making this, dude. I've had some of the Namco Museum games when I was little and knew they were always packed with so much soul! I never would think somebody till this day someone would uncover more secrets about it.

Tip on Galaxian, NEVER SPAM. Instead, There’s a certain shooting pattern you can do which will take it easier to take the aliens down one by one. I recommend watching a TAS of the game to understand the timing, while it’s impossible for perfection, it helps clearing most enemies earlier.

My god someone actually uncovered it, I remember looking at these on the spriters resource website and being genuinely curious about it, I thought that it was something that was just forgotten about, but holy cow, it’s actually been accomplished. It’s the stuff like this that I love about the old Nampo Museum games they put so much little details into it that it’s still being discovered to this day

I've come almost a year late, but I'm glad I found this video - I LIVE for discoveries like these in old games. It's sad that a lot of these things go under the radar and won't see the light of day unless someone popular covers them. I was lucky enough to run into this video, though, and now I have a piece of obscure trivia to take with me wherever I go. Thank you so much for the video!

I'm not sure if you know this already but I have a offensive tip for Dig-Dug. If you spam the pump button while walking towards them point blank you'll pop them twice as fast. Be careful when doing this because if there are enough enemies in front of you they'll overwhelm you so don't get reckless.

someone on discord linked me to this video.... I'd seen some new easter eggs in a twitch stream of the game (like a third version of Tower of Druaga) but *nothing* quite like this! I highly doubt I'd ever be able to unlock this one myself, between Pole Position II and the Tower of Druaga probably being the hardest to get, so it was neat to see this in video form.

Wow, I am so impressed! Good work and good video. I loved this game so much growing up, It was the game I played with my grandpa up until he passed. I hear that museum soundtrack and feel a rush of nostalgia and unbelievable joy. Knowing that there was an easter egg like this hidden for so many years makes me elated. I didn't think I'd get so hyped over a sprite, but here I am.

This game (Namco Museum Vol. 3) is my 2nd favorite game ever. 1st being Spyro i loved this game as a kid the nostalgia stumps me with ths game lol. I was a beast at that Pole Position 2 game as a kid i would always see the Flag Girl lol. The trick is to shift between low and high gears until certain turns and try and find out where the upcoming cars are. My bad you already brough it up in the video as i was watching it😂. I wasn't really too good at the other games though sadly. I was god at Tower Of Druaga tbh. Well until stage 11 lol.

The Ms. PacMan Easter Egg is very difficult to find especially in THE TOWER OF DRUAGA since that you have to clear the game before ACTUALLY unlocking that Easter Egg.

Why can’t they do a remastering of this game on Nintendo switch?

@smashmaster521 2 жыл бұрын

Well, if they do bring this game to Switch, they'll have to replace Ms. Pac-Man due to the legal issues surrounding her. I vote for OG Pac-Man Arrangement taking its place. Actually, just combine all five Museums into one and replace Ms. Pac-Man with the Arrangement games from the PS2/Gamecube Namco Museum.

Do you have any idea how the rank system works? Like getting past D rank (novice) in games. Just curious because I may want to grind to get to A rank on a few games and I am wondering if you have any idea how for any of the games.

Unfortunately, I only have a PlayStation 2, which means that the highest scores on this game will not save. Do the high scores have to be saved with a memory card in order to unlock the Easter egg?

@epiccreepertnt 2 жыл бұрын

That's a great question. I would test the waters by going to the high score records on your PS2 and seeing if it will display your scores, even without a memory card. If it still does, then I'd imagine you can get the Easter egg if you can manage all the requirements in one sitting, but of course that could take a while! Especially with Druaga...

@smashmaster521 2 жыл бұрын

You can still save the scores, but you have to use a PS1 memory card instead.

4:24 I guess Namco had to pay to use the Suzuka and Fuji tracks in the original games? I wonder why the "Seaside" track (Grand Prix of Long Beach) was still allowed - perhaps because it's a street course and not always the same (plus they didn't use the name)?

You cheated not only the game, but yourself. You didn't grow. You didn't improve. You took a shortcut and gained nothing. You experienced a hollow victory. Nothing was risked and nothing was gained. It's sad that you don't know the difference.
