Dig Dug port reviews

Just reviewing versions from old classic systems. Many modern ports are near identical.  
So here are 8 Dig Dugs they should not have bothered making.  And 8 really good ports.

First, the list of bad Dig Dugs:
#1 Atari 2600 - horrible play, horrible graphics. Rocks are squares. Other than main
character, none of the other characters look close to arcade.

#2 Apple II - bad play, bad graphics
#3 MSDOS - accurate and good play, bad graphics
#4 Intellivision - expected better from them.
#5 VIC20 - good play, not the best graphics
#6 Atari 800 - surprisingly bad for that system
#7 Atari 5200 - graphics are capable of being better.  little effort on design team.
#8 TI994A - some of the graphics could have been detailed better


Good Dig Dugs

#1 Sega Dreamcast - Perfect in most ways from opening screen on.

#2 Nintendo 64 - Perfect.  same graphics, play, and development as the Sega Dreamcast.
#3 Windows - very good in strange and different way
#4 Nintendo Family Computer - Perfect as it can get.
#5 Nintendo NES - very good and accurate.  Worst part is that NES graphic flicker.
#6 Atari 7800 - One of the best Arcade clones of the game.  Little higher resolutions and they 
   would have nailed it.

#7 Commodore 64 - well done over all, sore weird graphic glitches
#8 ColecoVision -  Nailed the game play, graphics not so much
