The 2025 Pac-Man Classic Special Edition release from Arcade1up features digital bezels displayed during gameplay. While some may use cabinet art or cropped screenshots, others are...quite odd. See the ALT text for details. (Thanks to K3yLimeSatoshi for providing today's fact!)
The bezel for Pac-Man Plus features fanart of Pac-Man illustrated by @ToonsCosmic. His art was originally for promotional use for Pac-Man Plus Mobile Rewritten, his remake of the cell phone version of Pac-Man Plus for modern devices. You can find this remake here: https://cosmictoons.itch.io/pac-man-plus-mobile-rewritten

Mappy's bezel features a cropped screenshot of ShiftyLook's Mappy animated series. Along with the fact that Dig Dug and SkyKid aren't characters in the original game, this division of Bandai Namco has been shut down all the way back in 2014. This is the first time anything from it has ever resurfaced in an official capacity.

While King & Balloon uses an image of the arcade marquee, it still contains the logo for the game's original USA distributor, GamePlan Inc.

The bezel for The Tower of Druaga uses graphics not from the original game, but from its later home port on the PC Engine / TurboGrafx-16.
