Bandai Namco has come up with a unique incentive to pick up all ten launch titles for Namcot Collection. As a special bonus, players will receive a retro demake of 2007’s Pac-Man Championship Edition.

Namcot Collection itself will also come with a few neat features, which Bandai Namco detailed today. These include the ability to suspend and resume play at any time, a rewind function, and a “screen function” to change the screen display format.

Namcot Collection launches for Switch in Japan via the eShop on June 18 where players can pick and choose the titles they wish to purchase. A physical version will also be available.
