Namco Museum Remix, also now as Minna de Asobou! Namco Carnival (みんなで遊ぼう!ナムコカーニバル? Minna de Asobou! Namuko Kānibaru) in Japan, is a video game compilation for the Wii, featuring a wide array of classic and updated Namco arcade games. Featured in the compilation are the original versions of nine arcade games from the 1970s and 1980s. It also features re-vamped "Remix" variants of five of the titles. All of the "Remix" games feature Pac-Man in them even if he was not in the original game on which it is based.
In 2010, an enhanced version was released in North America only under the title Namco Museum Megamix, in addition to the mentioned titles featuring nine other original arcade games from the 1980s and one more Remixed game.
Namco Museum Remix is a part of the Namco Museum series of arcade compilations. In common with them, it includes a collection of classic arcade titles; however, these are ports, rather than being emulated, and are presented in the same style as in Namco Museum Battle Collection for the PlayStation Portable (see that article for details).Remix also adds five titular "Remix" versions, with updated graphics and gameplay, which differs from the originals, in some cases significantly (for example, in Galaga Remix, players not only have to protect themselves, but also protect Pac-Man as he rolls through space). The "Remix" games feature Miis, and each minigame is presented as an "attraction" in an amusement park—in fact, when released in Japan, the compilation was retitled Minna de Asobou! Namco Carnival (みんなで遊ぼう! ナムコカーニバル?, lit. "Everyone Plays! Namco Carnival").
