@accc: Wow, that really is impressive! You must be a master driller! I am still trying to beat Brazil on normal mode. Now I feel determined to unlock that rabbit character; thanks for sharing that information!

It could use some multiplayer though...

I never thought I'd say this, but... a race to the bottom would be awesome!

@WolfRamHeart - Just keep in mind that you only have to play the endless stages on easy to unlock stuff. After I cleared all of the regular stages on normal I went back and played the endless stages on easy, and by that time my skills had improved to the point where they were a complete piece of cake! On the North Pole stage I even maxed out the score counter by the time I lost my first life (using the robot). The moon stage was actually still pretty tricky but it only took me two tries to reach 2000M.

My strategy is basically to dig straight down as fast as you can and only switch lanes when a stone block gets in your way or you see an easily obtainable air capsule in another lane, then use the following strategies for switching lanes:
1) enter a lane with a wide block directly above you so that it doesn't fall down very far;
2) if you have to enter a lane where the block directly above you is only one square wide, dig down far enough ahead of it so that it gets caught on a block on one of the adjacent lanes;
3) if you enter a lane and neither 1) or 2) applies then make sure to switch lanes again before a block crushes you!
Also, if you know there's nothing falling above you you can stop to wait for all the other blocks to come down before making a lane change or going for a capsule, but otherwise keep on digging as fast as you can!

@accc: any idea if Usagi is an unlockable in Mr. Driller A on the GBA and if so how to unlock him (maybe I need to get to 2000m in Endless on that as well, but would it be in the Hole of Druaga level or the World Tour one?)? Ditto for Drill Land -- neither of those games have the benefit of a silhouette of Usagi just to indicate he's even there!

I have no idea, seeing as how this is the first Mr Driller game I've ever played
