#EveryFamicomGame 42: #DigDug
I'm under the impression that this was only released in Japan. I checked online, only Dig Dug 2 comes up in my searches for the NES.
If I had to guess why, it's the same reason as Space Invaders. Everyone already had it.
"Assault Suits Valken" (Super Famicom, 1992) is currently being #speedrun at https://t.co/A4FIEB0Jcw as part of its Retr-O-Thon marathon event.
(Below is fan art I commissioned based on the game awhile back.)

I thought it was gonna be a Pac-Man rip off, but It seems to be something entirely different.
Still has a yellow guy in mazes though.

I really liked designing this one. I'll include some variations in this post.
They're a bit dramatic for the game in question but I hope the original developers like it if they see this.
The Princess and Toad
'Super Mario Bros. 2', JP version
Famicom
And while you're all here, hi, hello! I write about weird video games for my little website.
Here's the iM@S game on PSP, for instance.

And here's a bunch of iM@S CDs with a Famicom theme to them.

Decided to also upload the background because I like it quite a bit.
Sometimes I wish Nintendo allowed a few more than 5 games sent to America a year by each 3rd party. Some of these look pretty fun.
#EveryFamicomGame 38: #AntarcticAdventure
This game is basically Slalom but cute and you don't have a 8-bit butt in your face.
#EveryFamicomGame 37: #SpaceInvaders
Oh man, it's one of the big boys. Apparently this port never left Japan. If I had to guess why, it's because of the Atari 2600 version. Everyone basically already had it.
#EveryFamicomGame 36: #ChampionshipLodeRunner
Sometimes the only thing I have to base these drawings on is the box art, and I think I just found Captain Falcon.

I scratched my hand while drawing this, that deserves a penalty.
#EveryFamicomGame 34: #FormationZ
Transformers vibes from this one. That's really all I have to say.
#EveryFamicomGame 33: #RaidOnBungelingBay
Apparently the creator of this, Will Wright, went on to make most of the games in #TheSims series. SimCity, SimEarth, SimAnt, SimLife, SimCopter, etc. If there's two things he likes its complete control of everything and helicopters.

#EveryFamicomGame 32: #Galaga
Did they fire that guy at S.H.I.E.L.D. or what?
#EveryFamicomGame 31: #Exerion
I legit have no idea whats going on in this game. There were fighter jets, outer space, dragons, Easter Island heads, etc. This is Jaleco's first NES game, that one company who puts their name where the title should go, and they wanted to be known.
#EveryFamicomGame 30: #IceClimber
Pretty well-known game now, but imagine how confused some players back in Melee were to see these two weirdos running around. Then again, Melee also added Mr. Game&Watch.
This game is fun tho.
