Reyn 🍃 @reynhester.bsky.social · 01/10/2026To my knowledge the OG is out of the picture now, but the clones are ok. Ideally you want a 5.20b but 5.19 will be just fine, only Code Veronica had something notably jank on it afaik and there are patches for it anyway If anything the main issue is the SD connector cables can suck ass lol 111

Reyn 🍃 @reynhester.bsky.social · 27/08/2026Fortunately it's a different game altogether (the new release is for a sequel) but the console ports for the OG are bad with numerous issues even casually 😭 emulate arcade if you can 🙏 160
Reyn 🍃 @reynhester.bsky.social · 27/08/2026Adding on to the other reply (and not to be annoying about it) but for the original DDP I'd suggest emulating the arcade ver. instead, the console ports (Saturn especially) have bad jank even if you're just playing casually 020

![A clipping from an official interview with the lead team behind Mr. Driller, originally published in Arcadia vol. 3 (April 30th, 2000) and translated into English by @itsfantasticac.bsky.social.
"– Some of the blocks in-game look like food, but what do they taste like?
(Kaori) Shinzozaki: Please see this table.
[Blue - Mousse with sauce
Red - Blueberry
Yellow - Strawberry
Green - Lemon
X blocks - Chocolate
Blocks with holes on two-color stages - Cheese
Yellow hole blocks - Lemon Cheese
Green hole blocks - Melon Cheese
Bubbly blocks - Candy Drops
Spiral blocks - Whipped Cream
Cake Bocks - Sponge Cake Topped with Fresh Cream]
– Can Susumu-kun eat them?
Shinozaki: He cannot.
(Yasuhito) Nagaoka: If people could eat them, I think world hunger would be solved (laughs)."
