Response to A question about PacMan's very late stages

from BeeJay (bjohnstone@cardinal.co.nz)
Some interesting stuff. Does anyone know if Namco did this Stage 0 (256) stuff deliberately or not?!

I wonder about that definitive answer you gave. Remembering that if you play Galaga on anything other than the hardest setting it will lock up on Stage 0 (256) but if you have it set to the hardest setting then it still plays ok on Stage 0 (256). If that's a programming bug I'd be very interested to know why the bug doesn't occur just because the setting is on hardest !!!

Actually I like to think it was a deliberate feature the programmers slipped in..... ;-)
