2-in-1 featuring Ghostmuncher, a Pac-Man conversion, and Uniwar S, a shooting game running on Galaxian Hardware by Irem. (Though the dumped version of it has Galaxian Part X instead)
Throughout the early '80s, Galaxian's arcade hardware was commonly used in pirated arcade games. It was very easy to clone when compared to other titles, and as such, they could be mass-produced easily. Many (rather poor) conversions of popular arcade games like Pac-Man and Donkey Kong were released at a much lower cost than the official machines, and were common in less wealthy parts of the world. They are not to be confused with games that simply natively run on Galaxian hardware such as Amidar and Anteater.
Known Galaxian Conversions[]
Something notable about Galaxian hardware bootlegs is that many elements, especially colors and sound, will be very off in some cases. Another notable point is that while most games are direct copies of other arcade titles, some are programmed from scratch. Most of these use the tone generator from standard Galaxian hardware though the conversions by Taito of Brasil use the AY8910 chip seen in most games that natively run on the hardware.
