Mr Driller: Drill Spirits
Hurrah! I’ve managed to do 500m, with Puchi, without any items. Go me! Sadly, 1000m is plainly impossible so I’m off to have a cry whilst my DS recharges.

Mr Driller: Drill Spirits
I’m still stuck on that bloody 500m level. I’ve tried with Susumu and Puchi, and have managed to get to 476m today, but then I die. My problem, is that I can’t figure out how to get air that is surrounded by blocks you can’t dig (well, you can dig them, but you lose air doing so). More practice required, I suspect.
Mr Driller: Drill Spirits
Had another few goes on this today. It still isn’t much easier! Managed to complete 500m, but only because I bought a “one hit shield” item. Having said that, I had a life spare at the bottom so I could have done it. Unlocked Puchi as a result, and completed 300m with him. Also had a go at Pressure Driller mode, which is even more frantic than Mission Driller. Managed to defeat the 200 ton baddie, and nearly got past …
Mr Driller: Drill Spirits
Made a proper start on this DS game today, only to find it really hard. I think I must be missing some gameplay mechanic, as I can’t even do the 500m level, let alone the harder ones! I never was very good at the older Mr Driller games either. Haven’t tried Pressure Mode yet, but that seems like it’ll be even HARDER.
Ghostwire Toyko (PS5): COMPLETED!
There’s a song by Puffy AmiYumi called Planet Tokyo. I mention this not because it has anything to do with the game, but every time I see the title “Ghostwire Tokyo” I read it in the same tune. Yes, I know you probably have no idea what I’m on about. I went into the game itself pretty blind. I’d glanced over a couple of reviews and read some game-content-free comments on how good it was, but I think I was …
The Story of Thor (Switch): COMPLETED!
Which Norse god bit his tongue? Thor. Note: the game is not about Norse gods.
Super Smash Bros Ultimate: COMPLETED! (Switch)
It’s 2019, and the first game to be completed this year is Super Smash Bros. And by complete, I mean, the MASSIVE new single player mode – “World of Light”. In brief, this mode is a huge map with lots of fight events on it. Some are simple one-on-one brawls, some have quirks like gravity that randomly flips or after a few seconds one hit kills you, and others have a number of unusual fighters such as an army of …
The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess (Wii)
Six and a half hours in. Now, don’t hit me, but I’m not actually enjoying it. I’ve never completed a 3D Zelda before, but it’s not because I’ve not enjoyed them – it’s just because I’ve…stopped. But this? It’s not bad by any means, but I don’t really like it. In true deKay fashion, lets list the faults, yes? 1) It’s Not Zelda Well, the Link-as-Link bits are. But since more than half of the game has been Link-as-a-dog, that’s …

Fillum review: My Neighbour Totoro (1988)
Everyone loves Ghibli films, right? They’re everything Disney aren’t. You know, like good and stuff. My Neighbour Totoro follows the story of two girls who, with their father, move to the country to be nearer their mother in hospital. There’s not really much of a plot, as very little actually happens. It’s just a very nice fairy story of the forest spirits (Totoro and his friends) and how they help the girls a couple of times after the girls lend …
Assorted NeoGeo CD games (NeoGeo CD)
Shock! I bought a new console! OK, so it’s an old console, but it’s one I’ve wanted for absolutely ages. Someone on rllmuk was selling it with four games and some, uh, “backups”, for a not-to-be-missed price, and lo – it arrived this afternoon. And it really is very nice. To look at, it’s like a giant Sega Saturn, and the interface is almost identical to the MegaCD. The joypad is like a big version of the NeoGeo Pocket stick …
Mr. Driller (WS)
With 500m mode out of the way, I had many, many attempts at 1000m mode instead. Although it seems easier than Drill Spirits on DS in many ways (although I’m not really sure why – it’s the same game in essence), I didn’t manage to do very well. 760m-ish was about my best run. Of course, unlike the DS game, you can’t buy extra lives, power-ups and shields and stuff, so things are made somewhat harder that way. However, almost …
Animal Crossing: Wild World
Been playing off and on for much of the day. Planted a few more trees, sold some fruit, did a bit of fishing, and was visited by three spirits other players. Turnips prices were pretty crap until Stanley from Harrumph declared his branch of Nook’s was buying for 495 bells each. OK, so it wasn’t the 832 I was hoping for locally, but it was certainly better than 121, the best price I’d had so far. This evening, then, I …
