===========
so i'll be posting my own impressions of the dig dug one soon enough.
it's the only legal way to play dig dug 2 with arcade like controls,
barring buying the PCB, and it's exclusive to this release
(and no the tv plug and plays don't count, or any of the illegal pandora's boxes or clones.)
dig dug 2 was a conversion kit, and never appeared in any arcade i've ever seen, and not even in japan
as a dedicated cabinet.
it was the same hardware as super pac-man and mappy, and one person has posted a homemade conversion
of it, but its rather scarce.
much like the pac-man, which has pac n pal, and that's another exclusive thats rarely ever seen outside conversion kits.
-------------------------
anyways, i'll be modding my countercade (bartop for those that get confused easily), and posting more
technical information once it's available.
retroralph has already modded his with a 60-1, but i'm not going to do it in that manner.
there is probably a way to natively log into the board, and run other programs, and not just the MOO emulator.
later
