Reception
Namco Museum Remix received mixed reviews with a score of 55.05% on GameRankings. Criticisms focused on a lack of classic arcade games such as Pac-Man and Ms. Pac-Man, the inclusion of largely obscure titles such as Pac & Pal, Cutie Q, and Super Pac-Man and for the "Remix" games being "almost unplayable". Namco Museum Megamix received mixed reviews with a score of 61.07% on GameRankings. The Megamix version was criticized for not including a wider variety of Namco games, such as Dragon Buster, Dragon Spirit, The Tower of Druaga, Rolling Thunder, Ms. Pac-Man, Legend of the Valkyrie, and Dragon Saber, as well as being little more than just a repackaging of 2007's Namco Museum Remix with slight changes and with one reviewer mockingly hinting at an eventual "Gigamix release, with Ms. Pac-Man included". Both Remix and Megamix were also criticized for the unnatural and awkward control schemes with the Wii Remote, Nunchuk, and Classic Controller, as well as the lack of GameCube controller support. Other criticisms include that the visuals of the "Remix" games are pale in comparison to other Wii titles, for the Megamix version lacking the Mii feature of the original Namco Museum Remix (despite that Megamix actually does keep the Mii feature) and the hub world, (which was heavily based on Pac 'n Roll), for being confusing when toggling between games, along with the lack of bonus content and leaderboards for both versions.

Famous quotes containing the word reception:
“To the United States the Third World often takes the form of a black woman who has been made pregnant in a moment of passion and who shows up one day in the reception room on the forty-ninth floor threatening to make a scene. The lawyers pay the woman off; sometimes uniformed guards accompany her to the elevators.”
—Lewis H. Lapham (b. 1935)
“Satire is a sort of glass, wherein beholders do generally discover everybody’s face but their own; which is the chief reason for that kind of reception it meets in the world, and that so very few are offended with it.”
—Jonathan Swift (1667–1745)
“To aim to convert a man by miracles is a profanation of the soul. A true conversion, a true Christ, is now, as always, to be made by the reception of beautiful sentiments.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
