Pac-Man 2: The New Adventures (Genesis) Playthrough - NintendoComplete

- A playthrough of Namco's 1994 Sega Genesis adventure game, Pac-Man 2: The New Adventures.
I recorded the SNES version quite awhile back, and I thought it only fair to give the same attention to the US exclusive Sega Genesis version. The graphics don't suffer much at all with the lower color palette of the Genesis, mainly because everything was so bright, cartoony, and primary-colored to begin with, but the MUCH higher quality sound (well, except for the samples... I've never heard a cow mooo sound like a groaning zombie before) and the inclusion of a brand-new remix of Ms. Pac-Man, Jr. Pac-Man (with new graphics, sounds, and cut-scenes) that is exclusive to this port really put it in the lead. The SNES version by comparison just has a remake of standard Ms. Pac-Man in it. If you have to chose a single platform to play it on, I'd absolutely recommend the Genesis one.
I do show both of the arcade games during the video.
Regardless of platform, though, Pac-Man 2: The New Adventures (or Hello! Pac-Man, as it was originally called) is a pretty awesome game that really isn't like anything else. It's sort of a platformer when you don't directly control Pac, and it's sort of an adventure game with all the puzzle elements. Either way, it's oozing with charm, and it's a lot of fun to play. Pac-man has an insane amount of animation, and most of it is wicked funny. :)
One thing though - at the last boss, how did they not notice the horrendously awkward way that the name (at the bottom right corner) could be misread when rendered in that font?! I mean, even if it's purple, the boss is a goo blob! Well, who knows - maybe they did it on purpose;)

How many people, when they played this game, spent like 40 hours making Pac-Man miserable?
praxcrown5 dude i totally relate. when i would send him through the farm .id hit the beenest and get him stung or drop the haystack on the farmer and the. as pacmans carefully walking by i shoot the farmer to wake him up .and like not shoot the crow so he attacks you with pecks or shoot the cow so he gets mad at you lol good times . i want to play that jr pacman part .i literally beat the pacman2 game then didnt go back to play jr pacman .and i dont know where the codes that i wrote down are lol
The answer to that is "everyone".
I did that all the time. I loved how the game didn't punish you at all for knocking him out and instead just sent you to the beginning of the same screen you were on. That really made experimenting a blast.
I liked making him eat strange fruits from the trees so he would be sick 😂😂😂
Me
Pac-Man 2 is a really cool shift from the original game, and loaded with all sorts of hilarious, random moments. Even if the controls (or lack thereof) frustrate you, it's hard to not have fun watching Pac-Man bumble suicidally along.
+Ethyn Dawkins But that doesn't mean you should.

NintendoComplete, The Genesis Version Only Came Out in America?!
I always thought Europeans had this to, like most games!
Press the b- button.
Its my favorite pac man game
Pac-Man: [Is depressed after surviving several near-death experiences.]
Also Pac-Man: [Is instantly cheered up by the misfortune of others and a cool looking cow]
If only life could be so easy...
Great game from my childhood.
2:45 his facial expressions always had me crying of laughter 😂😂💀💀💀
. The disappointment in his face lmfao
Yea💀😂
Say what you want about this game but I want to add that Pac-Man's dog is so cute!
Wooow i completely forgot about this game. So underrated.
I love this sound in the Genesis version XD this game was soooo hilarious as a kid
9:26-'Dat smug walk tho...
1:16 I really appreciate the use of the Sega Genesis’s background scaling
The Genesis itself was incapable of scaling, if any were put in games, it was done by software, since the hardware was incapable on it's own.
Cant stop my tears man. Those days were ❤❤❤❤
Good gravy I haven't played this game in like 20 years, yet I still remember the gameplay, the music, and the goofy facial expressions lol
I must've been 7 when my parents got me this game. I could never pass the task set in the city. It was a pretty interesting game, if not an exceptional one.
Hey that version: Pac-Man is Speaking Softer, IS SO DIFERENT
0:37 um...he _did_ star in his own game! Did Namco just write that as a dig at Midway games?
I played this so much as a kid. Never got past the 2nd area in the mountains but played through that first part over and over again, as kids do.
In hindsight, what a bizarre game. No direct control over the characters, instead just hoping to influence them to do what you want. Such an insane idea. But hey, when someone asked some developers to make the sequel to freakin Pac-Man, and they swung for the fences. I don't think it's a "good" game but I respect it for its ambitions.
In the SNES Version, You're gonna play Ms. Pac-Man.
In the Sega Genesis Version, You're gonna play Pac-Jr.
I miss this game so much
49:18 my favorite part
I love getting Pacman killed in funny ways
I've been laughing my head off at all the funny bits. Man old gen sure gets you good
9:26 Here's a link to the best part. Trust me, you won't regret it.
I approve
It's obviously you. I didn't even click
LOOK! LOOK!
_smug-man_
1:14:55 I could never get the timing down here to make sure I didn't go splat on the sign at the end, so I always cheated by just eating a power pellet and flying across.
I think I'm the only person on this earth that thinks that this is one of the best games in the entire Pac-Man series... Even if the Genesis version makes Pac-Man sound like an old man breathing into phone speakers
I’ve seen the SNES gameplay, I bet this will be another good adventure!
The sound is totally different from the Super Nintendo version... lol weird.
That's because both consoles use a completely different sound chip. SNES uses 'samples' (actual recordings of instruments) while the Genesis uses FM synthesis.
That's because Genisis does what Nintendont
@@weezyskater How original.
@@NintendoComplete i try my best bro lol
SNES Colour Is Better Than Genesis Colour
49:18 U GOT SURPRISE!!
Cat has a Funny Sprite
@@phauloriquelme2657 and i got the 25th like!
Ah...I remember this game. I never got very far because I would shoot Pac-man so much that he would stop listening to me. I made his life a living hell.😂
I love this game, but never actually saw the Genesis version.
Mackerel Phones don't worry its the same
I'm the opposite
You cheated yourself...
Me neither
1:15 WOW! 3D EFFECTS DO EXIST ON GENESIS JUST LIKE SNES
Julie Mann w
It's pseudo-3D graphics (like in Sonic 2). It's actually sprites.
I find this version easier than the snes flying is better than riding a cart for no reason this version actually made it look like the cover
Christopher Archer definitely, I’m really good at hang gliding, I’m a huge pain at the secret way mine cart!
Played both as I own copies of both, they are pretty much identical outside of the hidden minigames.
Man I remember when times was similar and I was happy playing this and pitfall
Love this game
Mannnn I grew up on this game
I miss this times👏.
I had the NES version so when I heard his voice in this one I was like wtf...
Nunc_Coepi this is why SNES is the best to play this game!
Snowball 10 :V agreed
@@snow10_BS Sega Genesis is way better than Super Nintendo and it has better Graphics than Super Nintendo
@@snow10_BS Super Nintendo is Crappy.
@@zpushy633sora8 You say that, yet the SNES outsold the Genesis worldwide in the end. Sorry fanboy, guess many didn't agree with you. The only place the Genesis had any kind of traction, and actually sold really well, Europe. The US and Japan were the big two when it came to gaming and sales, and the SNES sold extremely well in both the #1 and #2 game markets in the world.
I mean Thank you NintendoComplete!
This is the one I had. Nice. I spent 20 minutes scoping out pac man world videos. Kid me never got past the paragliding. Nice
"I'll be back!" said the Ghost Witch, who was never seen again after this game.
JUST picked this up, will get the SNES version soon so I'll have both that way. Also, what new remix of Ms Pac Man in this game, all I see is Pac-Man (which the SNES version has) and the exclusive Jr Pac-Man (the SNES version has Ms Pac-Man).
Great game!
This game was hard
GENESIS: I Have a Perfect Port of Pacman 2
SNES: Am i joke to you?
3:00
Pac-Man: Aim and slingshot the f&&@ing tree!!!
Man: Look! Look!
Directions: I’m telling you what to do read it
Again Pac-Man said: AIM AND SLINGSHOT THE F$@&ING TREE OR ELSE (ILL BEAT YOU UP)!
I own both versions of this game, as a collector I felt even though they are the same game, and play pretty much the same, that I just had to have both versions.
I find the lack of a Pac-Sphincter in this video disturbing. Other than that great video.
Larry Laffer I did too at first, but then I thought to ask - if ghosts are the only thing that you eat, would you need to do anything but burp?
Lol I guess so. Maybe he has that whole infinate waste recycling thing where he uses all the waste he makes.
Why wasn't Pac Mania called Pac Man 2?
It makes far more sense since it brought so many things together while maintaining the spirit of the game-play, and Arrangement should've been Pac Man 3
This game has nothing to do with the mainline Pac-Man games at all, the reason why it was a sequel was purely for marketing. In Japan, the game was just called "Hello! Pacman".
I do agree that Pac-Mania should have been labelled Pac-Man 2.
54:49 Secret Hang Glider: To get the secret Hang Glider you must go to Mountain entrance and do the usual thing (change the Danger sign with Up sign and make Pac Jump before he become an omelette, After this make Pac climb the rope like if you have to do the Normal Hang Glider. Shoot the rock one time with the slingshot, now let Pac Man notice the rock and let him kick the rock in order to make fall the big boulder down to the Mountain entrance. Now make Pac-Man climb down with the rope to return in the entrance. now make Pac Man going on the right side of the entrance, you will notice an arrow that points a secret route. Shoot at the arrow to make Pac Man go in the secret route. Enjoy the tougher and secret Hang Glider. Take in mind if you wanna make a remake of Pac Man 2 Playtrough.
Is it me or did the devs forget to finish the manager and door art on the burger joint when you knock the head off the statue? The colors there are remarkably flat for just that one little area.
This is a pretty good attempt at the snes version.
AWESOME PAC-MAN II : THE NEW ADVENTURE - (SEGA GENESIS ) PLAYTHROUGH 1994 GAME !!!
In 21:25 you can see the map.
Konya Parchel it looks very cute!
41:17 The Wrarh of The Titanic!
This game gets a lot of hate by many people. I always have fun playing this game. There are worse genesis/megadrive games than this.
They got bad taste in games then
It's not a bad game at all, just different from what console gamers were used to. PC gamers could likely easily adapt as PC's had plenty of point and click games for PC gamers to enjoy.
Not surprised in the SNES version, Blinky is *in a dark pink shade*
Even if they tried on the Genesis, Pac-Man 2 although its a Unique Game it doesn't have that Pac-Man feel really.
Even some Modern Games of the Series have that feel.
Your good at pacman in the game center
Why does the music in the Genesis version sound like something from Humongous Entertainment? I can’t be the only one who thinks that, right?
Different soundchip
FM Synth has a different sound style than samples.
We need a remastered version of this for Nintendo switch/ps4/xbox/steam
Bro, I got softlocked at the skateboard thing. I didn't know what to do
Pacman's voice is better in this version than SNES Version.
Genesis: WOOOO!
SNES: Laaaaaaame
Just sounds like a bunch of square waves.
Many things sound better on Sega but voice clips are absolutely not one of those things.
Really, Pac-Man sounds way cuter on the SNES
SilokHawk Try Demolition Man. Much clearer sounding on the Mega Drive.
Can you give me the download link?
Mega Drive Pac Man voice reminds me of Yoshi's Island SFX
NintendoComplete, there will be a Pacman symbol when someone finishes talking. THE A BUTTON IS PRESSED WHEN IT IS SHOWN!!!
Can't believe they tried to make Ms. Pac-Man sexy.
fuxxed up rite?
David Wessel Yeah and she's a total bitch. Pac-man is like her slave. Lmao at his face when she tells him to do something
Midway did it first in 1981
NintendoComplete got that right just so freaking lazy in this
I gotta say Ms.Pac-Man is a beauty queen!❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Pacman's voice sounds much BETTER & cuter here in the genesis. He sounds annoying in the Snes. I remember renting this from Blockbuster and played it on the genesis way back
I'm sorry you had poor tastes in games hahah
Both versions had Pac Man with a slightly different voice between them, but the Genesis soundchip fails on the guy saying "Look Look" bit. He sounds far cleaner on the SNES one, while the SFC one had a female doing the voiceovers as the announcer.
eh, i always thought the snes version had more emotion, but your opinion's your opinion, and i respect it.
A forgotten game hero
Hanferd Totally. Although Pixels might have made some people want to forget :(
... I still haven't watch any of these "video game" related movies, like Wreck it Ralph, Pixel or even the upcoming movie "Gamer". I dunno probably bad experience from the past in which how Hollywood deal with videogames. Although nowadays the directors will try to stay close to the source unlike the 90's
Hanferd Wreck It Ralph was actually awesome I thought, but yeah. Game movies usually are pretty non-bueno.
NintendoComplete Yeah WiR was great
White bunny rabbit:you gutless fox get the f*** out of my goddamn sight!
Kafka:good pac-man
She’s version is right there
does it work with sega mouse?
LOOK! LOOK!
PAC MAN IS ON PAINO AT 41:18
I remember when i didn't know how to make pacman look i screamed at pacman and started to swear
25:16 STUPD BASTRD!🤣
Great port, but I just wish this port used the Mega Drive's 320x224 mode than the 256x224 this used. I suppose it was easier to transfer the SNES HUD that way, but still.
Like screen res changes how this game plays, hint, it doesn't.
@@Bloodreign1 You’d see more on screen with a higher resolution. Art could also be updated to have more detail
@@theobserver4214 Still changes nothing how this game plays, if you've gamed for long enough, you learn to quickly adapt to any minor changes like this. That's become the last resort to Genesis fanboys, instead of just enjoying the games both platforms have.
@@Bloodreign1 It’s not like 256x224 makes a Genesis game literally unplayable. This is a point and click game, it doesn’t need some absurd resolution like 320x448
It's too bad they didn't use the higher resolution of the Genesis here. It was always a nice improvement when developers took advantage of it.
SNES version FTW on this one.
Sega voice is cool
Snes voice is funnier
pac-jr. huh
Imagine if they remade this game they would have pac man's current black eyes design and this time you will move pac man besides some stupid slingshot or make him look
A game like this exists. It's called Pac in Time and it came out right after Pac Man 2.
Hope it's gonna be on the switch and 3ds
Christopher Archer I’m like can we get a reboot out of this but with updates like Pac-Man’s status like when it’s time to feed him or something like that.
so thats where the fucking guitar was
god dammit...
(49:19 a melhor música que eu já vi na vida❤️😇!.).
This game possibly get added to the switch online membership
If it would ever be added, Namco would likely use the SNES version. Both games pretty much play the same anyway. The difference lies in their mini games, but since Ms Pac-Man is no longer under the Namco umbrella, another strike against this version not being added to any modern console's virtual library.
9:26 Oh my
I have the game but i could never beat it so i watch other people play
1:16:55 and 24:46 and 1:17:23 and 25:14 and 26:10
I kinda prefer the genisis soundtrack over the snes soundtrack
4:02 I hated that text scroll so much.
este juego que tiene la version de sega mega drive pacman tiene su difenrente voz
Esa es la diferente voz que la SNES
The Genesis and SNES versions have a different arcade game SNES has Mis.Pac-Man and Genesis has Pac JR. This is do to Mis.Pac-Man already being on the Genesis and Pac JR already being on the SNES before this game came out
Ms Pac-Man was already on both consoles, and Jr Pac-Man was on neither 16 bit console, outside of the sprite changed to Pac-Jr Ms Pac-Man in this one. This was likely done to those who owned both consoles, to get both versions due to their little bonuses.
I think this comment is one year old but I guess this will still be here 49:18
👍👍👍👍👍
I bet Pac-Man’s pretty pissed off and sad about this whole game after the making of it.
I liked this game and I couldn’t pass the hangglide part as a kidn
Me either dude that part was my
Pitfall and I never beat the game due to that.
No pac man don't scream 35:02
Why would you do that pac man? 35:00
Speed at 1.25
Sounds like an Amiga Game
1:22:24 pac man did a dab
renedelgado1979
That is what you may call a bow, or as I like to call it, a *renaissance dab.*
In the Japanese Hello! Pacman one, the female voice says Up! Up! and it sounds sexual, lol
