765

(tags game, Mr. Driller)

I never noticed. I have been playing Mr. Driller for a long time, but I only finally realized. You get 765 bonus points for uncovering chikyuujin. Namco in Japanese telephone numbers is 765. My friend was like duh when I explained that. Oh, sorry.

It must be a reoccuring Namco joke with decades-long history. Idolm@ster has the 765 goods shop, for example. I'm sure there's more everywhere.

BTW, I've been playing Mr. Driller recently on the DS (phat), and it feels ok. I much prefer the GBA Micro's D-pad. No wonder people prefer the GBA version and Gamecube versions.

Detest digging: Mr. Driller Drill Spirits

Yes I spent some time Drilling with Mr. Driller Drill Spirits, adding a little more mileage and progress to my long forgotten save. OMG, 300 Meter level unlocked. :-p

I really hate how it's not very forgiving. Then again, this reflex game should not be played just before going to bed. It reminds me that I have to figure out my reflex "biorhythm". At what time during the day can I kick maximum reflex? Because at my age, I really can't get it done at any time.

Dig my own treasure: Mr. Driller

According to them mainstream video game blogs, Mr. Driller will be out for the Xbox 360 Live Arcade this week.. In celebration I'm going to give my DS version a run, and hope that the gaming feeling will come to an end.
