Bandai Namco wants fans to rediscover retro video games on modern platforms and so they’ve announced Namco Museum Archives Vols 1 and 2. Each volume will contain 10 historic 8-bit console versions of arcade classics like Galaga and PAC-MAN. There will also be some games that never made it to Western consoles before like Dragon Buster II and Splatterhouse: Wanpaku Graffiti.
