Namco Museum DS is a 2007 video game compilation developed by M2 and published by Namco Bandai Games for the Nintendo DS. It features eight previously released games published by Namco, seven of which were released in arcades and the other one being a port of the multiplayer game Pac-Man Vs. (2003). Players are able to extensively customize each of the arcade games, with options available ranging from screen display and difficulty settings to being able to manually modify the DIP switches on a replica arcade system. A sound test menu and a "museum" aspect that lets the player see promotional material for each game in the collection is also included.
Namco Museum DS was first released on September 18, 2007 in North America. It was followed by a Japn release on October 11, and a release in Europe in February 2008. The collection received mixed reviews from critics, who were generally divided on the graphics quality that each game is presented in by default and selection of games provided, though praised the inclusion of Pac-Man Vs.
