After like a year or so, I've decided that I'm gonna redo this because 1, it's not optimized. 2, the video's not rendered in 60fps which the game runs at (which is why the graphics for the countdown numbers and the ready set go look weird) and the colors aren't accurate to what the NES would display. 3, I used a personal, edited rom which changed the graphics for Pac-Man, the ghosts, and the Fruits. Lastly 4, I'm not very proud of this considering this barely counts for TAS until the faster movement kicks in and the fact that timing is not even remotely close to what it should be. Will update this comment to have the new one whenever I finish it.
You should be able to get 500,000 points easily with a TAS, but you can't do it chasing ghosts around the screen. That takes too much time, which means you can't get through as many fruits and dots and power pellets. With a TAS it may be possible to keep your power pellet combo going the entire game, so every ghost will be 3200 points. That's worth 8 ghosts at 400 points, so you can afford to keep eating dots as fast as you can instead of wasting time on low-point ghosts. The only time you should stray far from the dot pattern to eat ghosts is when there are a lot of power pellets nearby - but in this run you didn't even get the 6 pellets at one time, you used 3 and then later got the 3 on the other side. If you use all 6 power pellets for 24 ghosts at 3200 points each, that's 76,800 points.
I got this game on Switch 2 days ago, but I'm familiar with the gameplay because I used to play the version on Xbox 360 years ago. I was playing just now and got 496,000. It would have been over 500,000 if I had used my last second to eat the nearby fruit, so hopefully I'll be able to get 500,000 soon if I manage to have another good game. So it would be awesome to see what kind of score you can get with a TAS. Is 600,000 possible? Maybe! I recommend looking at a few old videos of high score runs from the Xbox 360 version, maybe that would help. But it probably won't translate exactly to the NES version. I think the power pellets last longer in this version, so maybe it's possible to get a higher score on this version than on the original game.
@@customsongmaker Thanks for the suggestions! I'll definitely try to see what I can get and how much more I can optimize the improvement run whenever I start work on it.
Ohh Man. This Pac-Man game it's beyond amazing. I've recently acquired the Rom. It's just simply a Master Piece. I don't know but ..... Maybe this would be, the best Pac-Man ever created? I think so. So, i don't know.

I second this.
I wouldn’t say so.
Also, the game that has the highest sound quality in the entire Famicom library!
@@OMundodosRetroGames not exactly, if you count lagrange point
Glad there’s a TAS for this. Such an infinitely charming demake
Like Classic Kong is.

Just imagine if this game was released in the 80's
Holy shit
It was released 15 years ago on Xbox 360 and apparently a lot of people didn't even notice. They think it's a new game.
The sound effects & musics in the Demake Version sounds a whole lot better.
Pac man turned up to 11, amazing!
i'd love to see some score tases tbh
im still amazed by it
I played this game on the RetroArch emulator and it was amazing!
i'd love to see a score attack TAS for this game
Gotta go PAC.
is it just me or do the sprites look different in this version compared to the version in namco museum archives v1?
And here I am, still unable to get 400,000 points in normal mode
that's what I call sonic speed
Imagine this on the Genesis🤯
What if it was on Xbox 360 and PS3, I bet it would look great
Nah genesis would fit better@@customsongmaker
@@damin9913 it was originally an Xbox 360 exclusive from 15 years ago so I'm pretty sure it fits
BUT HOW DO YOU ENABLE THE OTHER LOOKS
Can I have the download link?
It’s in Namco museum archives vol. 1
how i can do this is by geting drugs
Is that a skin pack?
no, it's a demake from NAMCO MUSEUM VOL 1
