So apparently different versions of Pac-Man: Tengen and Namco are considered different games. The differences are highlighted here: https://tcrf.net/Pac-Man_(NES). Thanks to Spikestuff for the tip and for not letting me be complacent with the Tengen version.
I defer all the explanation to my previous movie: [5231] NES Pac-Man (Tengen) by eien86 in 12:02.86
The solution is not exactly the same as that one, though. The start cannot be skipped in this one so at least the initial seed is changed when the first level starts. Indeed, if you copy&paste the solution from the Tengen one, it desyncs. So I had to re-launch the bot to generate a brand new solution for this one.
Addendum: the Japanese version (Namcot) synchronizes to this exact movie perfectly. Therefore, I would really doubt to call it a different game, so I won't submit a different movie for it.
