Five of the games are extractable with https://github.com/shawngmc/game-extraction-toolbox : Pac-Land, Pac-Mania, Pac 'n Pal, Pac-Man, and Super Pac-Man.

They all run in latest MAME (0.267), but Pac-Mania seems to get stuck at the intro screen after starting a game (loops)--doesn't do the usual stage select, and screen is upside-down by default. (See Namco Museum 50th Anniversary--entry 873--for working Pac-Mania ROM.)
 
But got Pac-Land. : DDD

Forgot a couple things from https://pacman.fandom.com/wiki/Pac-Land : supposedly the US arcade version of Pac-Land was sped up 2x over the JP version, and supposedly the Museum+ version is censored to replace Pac-Mom and Baby Pac-Man w/ "Pac-Mom" & "Pac-Sis." ; P
 
About the supposed speed diff, interesting then that the Pac-Land ROM that extracts from this is the Japanese version--which probably means they went with the slower version for the collection. Has the sped-up US arcade version been written out like Ms. Pac-Man, then?

Ack I meant replaces Ms. Pac-Man w/ Pac-Mom, not Pac-Mom w/ Pac-Mom. : P
