Title
I'm saving my review of Dig Dug for another day (honestly, it's a grower if you commit to play for score), but allow me this: the 7800 is very rarely the system you will want to seek out your arcade ports on. It's somewhat remarkable how ugly this game looks on the 7800... I mean, what was the MSRP on your average Atari adaptation in 1987?

Perfectly playable (as is Rampage, for example), but I would look to "dig in" on this classic take on the 80s maze attack on almost any other system before landing here.
