Just three years late, it's the handheld adaptation of Pac-Man World 2!
(At least it's better than the five-year gap on the original Pac-Man World.)
Sub-Pages#
Unused Levels#
Galaxian Maze #4#
|
|
This needs some investigation. |
Hidden in four of the game's levels are Galaxian Keys, each of which unlocks a maze in the style of Pac-Mania. That's the theory, anyway. Collecting the fourth Galaxian Key fails to actually unlock the final maze, leaving it unused.

Unused Graphics#
|
|
To do: |
What appears to be graphics for a loading screen resembling the one from the PlayStation Pac-Man World. The game doesn't have much loading time at all, which is likely why it was scrapped.
Unused Text#
(See the Notes page for the massive slog of dull error and debug text.)
Starting at 0x9E5B0 in the US ROM is all of the game's text. The user-facing text is localized into five languages for the European market, even in the outwardly English-only US release; only the English text is shown here.

Text related to saving. The game uses passwords for saving, but this and the below indicate that it was to have battery-backed saves at one point in development. |

Text for a save/load menu. |

Some debug display text about levels. "cheat enabled all level open" sure sounds interesting... |
