In the US version (which increases the default high score from 50000 to 100000, adds a high-score table, and removes four rounds from the first part), the round selector screen will only appear if the 'SELECT' setting in its options menu is set to 'ON' you also cannot start on 'Round 6' (the Japanese version's Round 9), but if you choose to start on 'Round 2' (the Japanese version's Round 3) you will receive a 'Courage Bonus' of 70000 points after clearing it, and if you choose to start on 'Round 4' (the Japanese version's Round 6) you will receive a higher 'Courage Bonus' of 150000 points after clearing it. You also cannot continue the game by inserting another coin into the cabinet after Pac-Man lost his final life in the 'RETRY 1ST' or 'SELECT' modes. Once you have inserted your coin into the cabinet of Namco's 1987 arcade game Pac-Mania, the text 'PUSH START BUTTON! ONE PLAYER ONLY!' will appear on the screen if the 'PLAY MODE' setting in its options menu is set to 'CONTINUE' or 'RETRY 1ST' however, if it is set to 'SELECT', the additional texts 'TO ENTER SELECT MODE' and 'WHILE PUSHING JUMP' will appear between it, which means that if you press the Start and Jump Buttons simultaneously the game will not start immediately (instead, the texts of 'MOVE STICK TO SELECT WORLD & PUSH BOUNCE BUTTON TO START' and 'PLEASE SELECT FAVORITE WORLD' will appear at the top and bottom of the screen, and you have to select either Round 1, 3, 6 or 9 by pushing the joystick up and down, then pushing the Jump Button to confirm your decision, which renders the first eight rounds skippable if desired).
