I suspect that whoever programmed the game wasn't aware of the hardware choice of the original model that limits movement to four ways, so it wasn't until this model came out that 8-way movement in Bosconian could be utilized.We use cookies and similar tools that are necessary to enable you to make purchases, to enhance your shopping experiences and to provide our services, as detailed in our Cookie Notice.

That is slightly incorrect this one definitely has 8-way control also and as far as I can tell through directly comparison, runs the exact same program as the original Namco TV Games unit, and diagonal flying in Bosconian works. Judging from YouTube search results, it looks like that was fairly recent, about a year ago, and the system was, as I'd thought, based on a NOAC. I had no idea that the Radica Taito system (which I don't think is rare, or at least it wasn't) had been added to MAME compatibility. Pac-Man unit, but also from its inclusion of voice alerts like in the original arcade game. This Bosconian is not the same port as the one in Jakks' first Namco unit, due to the underlying hardware switch the games from the original model were reprogrammed for Sunplus architecture in the later models in Jakks' Namco series, and thus this Bosconian gets a boost not only from the 8-way controller in the wireless Ms. Pac-Man (light blue case, yellow ball-top joystick) and its wireless (infrared) variant, which looks quite different and adds Bosconian and New Rally-X to the game selection. Incidentally, if I remember right, the only Jakks Namco systems that had 8-way joysticks were the 2004 model headlined by Ms. I suspect that the original source of the info is someone I've spoken to before, but this person is reluctant to discuss specifics nowadays, so the best detail I can offer is that I believe the Winbond chip in question is a member of the W55 x family, like the W55V91, a 65C816-compatible chip targeted for "TV-toy applications," as its datasheet says. I have a lot of data on these later systems, but that's as concrete as it gets for the Winbond-based models. Jakks only did a few models on that architecture before switching to Sunplus, and then Generalplus microcontrollers. Anonymously provided information from someone in the know, posted in a different forum well over a decade ago, reported that the early Jakks Pacific TV Games systems (including this first Namco unit) were built on Winbond microcontrollers. Got your PM, but I saw this thread upon logging in and figured I may as well just respond here.
Does anyone know if this is an NES-on-a-chip or something different,
