Here we will talk about all things Dig Dug. The game is coming out on Feburary 14th, 2013, otherwise known as Valentine's Day. What are your thoughts on this game? Will you pick up this Namco classic? If you are in the future and you have already purchased this on the 3DS Virtual Console, what are your impressions?

Games I'm playing currently: Legend of Zelda: A Link Betweeen Worlds, Tearaway
Games I'm excited for: Super Mario 3D World, Super Smash Bros. 4, Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze, Mario Kart 8

I LOVE Dig Dug for some reason so I will most likely get this eventually.

Even though I know Namco will release a Namco Museum 3DS this year (I'm calling it, I know Namco's antics), I'll download Dig Dug when it comes out.

Where did you hear this? I might just get the eShop re-release because Namco Museum may just have boring games too (like Tower of Druaga and Galaxian, which is boring compared to Galaga). But if they release games like Pac-Mania and Sky Kid and put Pac-Man Vs. and 3D effect for each game in it I might get it.

Dig Dug is aweome.
Even though my favorite version is the Atari 2600 port (with the arcade version coming a very close second), i'll probably grab it.

She-Ra is awesome. If you believe otherwise, you are clearly wrong.
Urban Champion is GLORIOUS.

Namco Museum 3DS isn't confirmed, I'm just predicting it.

Bad news they raised the price to $4.99 instead of $3.99. I don't think I'll get it anymore what about you guys?

I'll probably still get it, I thought imports like this would be would be $5.99 before the Lost Levels was shown to be $4.99 like regular NES games.

The NES/Famicom version actually is, despite the NES/Famicom version of Dig Dug II coming out over here.

Technically yes, because it was never on the NES, but the only port Nintendo got at the time was on the Famicom, the Japanese NES

I made Sheldon & Mr. Randoms back on Flipnote Hatena, now i'm a kangaroo mod that has a funko pop collection!

I'm not keen politics since that stuff is spooky, I'd rather watch SpongeBob over Fox News anyways!

I never knew that. Interesting. I actually like Dig Dug better than Pac Man. Dig Dug is a very underlooked character, I am suprised they didn't make a Dig Dug Championship Edition or something. Maybe one day a game like that will see the light of day!

Did you also know that Dig Dug has a name, it's Taizo Hori, and he's married to Kissy from Baraduke, and then many years later, they had children named Susumu and Ataru, and Susumu is also known as Mr.Driller, who went to star in the many Mr.Driller games.

Also, the enimies in Dig Dug are called Pooka (who is based on a tomato) and Fygar (The Dragon)

.........Now I want a Pooka Plush for some reason.

And I like Dig Dug........I mean Taizo Hori better then Pac Man too.

Kissy's name is Masuyo Toby.

I just checked wikipedia for that one, but yeah, Dig Dug all these years, he's had a family and a life, he's not just some guy as many people think...........but he got divorced and his oldest son just leaves him (and his english voice is just.........no, just no) and then Taizo is sad because he wasn't in that Pacman racing game, despite Pooka, Fygar, and HIS SON making it in, also he's not in Project X Zone, which is just stupid, because he just blew everybody up in Namco X Capcom........................I could be getting some sleep, put i'm talking about Dig Dug.
