Scroll down a bit and you'll see the same PCB under "PAC 3". So it's a bootleg alright...

Still strange that the maze is different...

The guy who sells it is selling the thing as an original Japanese version of pacman from 1980 for too much cash... -_-

He's 1 km away from me.. I should boot his ass :P

It is just a bootleg. There are almost no original Namco Puckman boards floating around.

This is a version of Pac-Man called "Pac Attack"!  It was never commercially released, but is included on some Muilti-Pac upgrades.

Check the following link and scroll down almost half-way to see it...

Wasn't Pac Attack a tetris like game for the SNES?

Same name, different game for different platforms.

The SNES version was licensed by Namco.  Doubt the arcade version was.
