So, the original Dig Dug is on pretty much every iteration of Namco Museum, and is host to various updates and remakes....
.... And yet, it's boring as all hell. I honestly don't get what made Dig Dug the First a classic, as even compared to its contemporaries there's not much happening. I mean you can make rocks fall on the enemies, but its difficult to set up and in my experience either the rock misses or you get nibbled because you put too much effort into trying to make it work instead of just hosing everything.
.... Then there's Dig Dug II, where you CAUSE LANDMASSES TO FALL INTO THE SEA, and if there's monsters on them, you get them all wondering where the ground went, Looney Tunes style, before they hit the drink themselves.
Yeah, I think I know which game I prefer.
Yet as far as I know, Dig Dug II is pretty much forgotten, its only home port being for the NES as far as I know (I'm not sure if its on ANY of the Namco Museum collections), while the inferior first game is all over the place.
What the hell is up with that?
