This version of Ms. Pac-Man for the Atari 2600 has been hacked. The color background has been replaced with a Black background. This makes it a little closer looking to the Arcade version and it is also much easier on the eyes. Good Hack.
I read somewhere that the brass at Atari explicitly forbade their programmers from using black backgrounds in games, with the exception of space games.

Is it just me, or does the "pink/black" combination make it seem 3 times as dated as the "real" version? Not necessarily a bad thing in this case.

Someone hacked the background to be black. Looks more like the arcade game. Original version had a blue background.

It is similar to the arcade version.
