Namco Museum Vol. 2 (PlayStation) Tour. Japanese version added towards the end for Cutie Q & Bomb Bee. Note: All of my gameplay videos are uploaded for entertainment, not for skill.
Thanks for uploading this. This was one of the coolest things Namco has done imo. When I was a kid I would spend hours in these museums. More so than in the games themselves. And that music ia just as good as running around peach's castle. (In my opinion) That, and it just sounded so "PlayStation!!" Man.. Those years as a kid I spent walking around these museums... I never ever thought I would miss it.. Nor did i realize then how easy life was Nostalgia rant over
@@keironforbes9512 It should. All PlayStation 2 consoles are compatible with PlayStation games. Bear in mind, you'll need a PS1 memory card to save your progress.
@@keironforbes9512 The only one not truly compatible with a PS2 is the 6th and final volume, Namco Museum R(AKA Namco Museum Encore), a Japan only release. A few of the games on it run far too slowly to be enjoyable (Wonder Momo, Rompers, Rolling Thunder), but play fine in a Japanese, or modded PS1. There were also 2 Namco Anthology collections on the PS1, with Volume 2's King of Kings remake on it not running on a PS2.
God the fucking nostalgia of sitting at my grandma's house in NC and reading the usual information about these games and their cabinets. To actually have an understanding of something that was way before my time. I'm glad I was able to experience it through this museum
Volumes 4, 5, and Encore have some of Namco's best games they put out later on. Stuff like Rolling Thunder, Legend of Valkyrie, Ordyne, Genpei Toumaden, Sky Kid (not a later release), Pac-Land, Rompers, Wonder Momo (an oddball game), Assault/Assault Plus, and Motos. Then there's Return of Ishtar, which is not a game for everyone, but it is fun in it's own right. It's the thinking of the first 3 volumes that caused the last two volumes in the US, four and five, not to sell well. Magazines like EGM trashed the final two US volumes, they probably didn't sink much time into the games included in them.
I love how even though the outside apperince of the museum featured on the menu screen in the second volume of Namco Museum is different from the first volume however the inside apperince of it is exactly the same as the first the only things that are different compared to the first volume are once you enter inside of the museum itself are the carpet Is blue rather then red and instead of the sunny and beautiful blue sky that was seen outside of the windows of the first volumes museum this one has an afternoon red and pinkish looking sky that is seen outside of it's windows aside from the returning different colored game rooms with titled floors showcasing the different items for each of the respective games that also contain character slide shows witch basically Is at first showing the different sprites that are seen in the game on a projector screen in reality it allows you to look at and see all of the different sprites that are featured in the respective game's as well as the rules and tips and history the lounge room from volume 1 also makes a return but it is almost exactly like how it looked like in volume 1 Except for a few minor things but other then that it was a great second entry to already awsome series that got it's start on the original playstation
There also 2 game only japenese release Namco Museum Vol. 2 was Cutie Q and Hidden Game Bomb Bee with the Code. Until Cuite Q came out in US was on Namco Museum Remix on Wii
What really perplexes me is that even though Dragon Buster is confirmed to be a real arcade game, I cannot find a single photo of an actual Dragon Buster arcade cabinet whatsoever (Yes, I know it wasn't released in the US)!
