Dig Dug

[pek727]

I think Dig Dug should have been a fighter in this game or at least an assist trophy. What are your thoughts, do you think he would have made a great character?

An assist trophy i don't think he'd be able to fight much as a character

I don't see how he would have been a character, considering he has very little games and he is not a very big franchise from Namco. I do like the enemies though. Blowing them up is so much fun and satisfying when they pop and then they pop other enemies.

This isn't Namco Brothers. Of course not. Besides, the most iconic character Namco has is Pac Man and there's never been more than one rep so far for each different third party. Maybe an assist trophy but how would that work if he didn't pop characters but instead work like the hammer when he hit characters? He'd be totally against his personality.

I dunno, he could do simple punches and kicks and use his pump as special attacks and maybe have a rock in there somewhere (I mean, Pacman had a Fire Hydrant, I don't see why not) but still, this is only a farfetched idea that is not likely to happen. I still think Dig Dug is pretty cool though.

We DID get Duck Hunt, a completely surprise character that used a combination of the Zapper, games compatible with the Zapper and generic attacks.
So knowing Sakurai, who knows? We can only expect the unexpected.
