Great stuff, not a game i can remember playing.

I just got the GB version and it does play very well. It's definitely a fun game. The 2600 version ins't bad but I don't think it makes good use of screen space. Atari did a better job converting Dig Dug than Coleco did with Mr. Do! on the 2600.Â

I love Mr. Do! I only have the 2600 version though, which isn't the best.
I would LOVE to see a 7800 or Lynx version of this gameÂ

You and me both but I'd settle for someone to convert the A8 version to a 5200 cart!!

Personal fav.of mine, 1st picked up by chance on A8 (Box looked something different), soon became hooked, so as soon as i jumped ship to C64, had to get it on that.
Paid pretty penny for SNES game at the time, but since let go (it went to a good home though).
Was tad 'miffed' when i read the GB review in Zero magazine though, reviewer made it clear he was'nt a fan of the original, so never going to get fair review i felt.

I'm trying to see if the folks at Good Deal Games get an A8 conversion done for the 5200.
