Unused Graphics
Mr. Driller was originally intended to be released as a Dig Dug sequel (under the working title Dig Dug III), but was later turned into an original property. One CHR bank in the ROM has unused title screen graphics under yet another name - "Dig Attack". It is written in Dig Dug's title screen font, meaning this was likely left over from when it was still a Dig Dug game.
A mock-up of the Dig Attack logo, using the color palette of Dig Dug's (arcade version) logo.
Early copyright information, which is dated 1999 instead of 2000, and features a small Namco logo.
Text reading "Push Start".
Debug Menu
Game Genie code 0E1-57F-E6A boots into a small debug menu with the following functions:
to Game
Seems to just crash the game?
to Hato
Goes to the name entry screen.
to Higashi
Goes to a screen where the region of the game can be selected.
to OBJ Test
An object test.
- Anime No: Press Up/Down to cycle through the character's animations.
- Flip: Press Left/Right to horizontally flip the displayed sprite.
- Character: Would seemingly cycle through the characters, but there doesn't seem to be a way to do so?
Additionally, hold B to make a grid appear above the displayed sprite.
This needs some investigation. Discuss ideas and findings on the talk page. |
Screen Viewer
Enter Game Genie code CB4-B8B-7F1, then press Down anywhere from 4 to 9 times, then press A to view all of the screens in the game.
