@Ivanstorm1973: would you mind letting me know if MGL uses it?

ok something odd here... I'm not adding duplicates of my screenshot. What's up with that?

Level 96 is the last level of the game. Every 12 levels it loops back around. At Loop 8, Stage 12 and then it all goes back to Level 1. No kill screen

1M roll @ 0:49:00

2M roll @ 1:38:35

Tried to do a video and at least duplicate my last 40k game. Lost focus and fell a bit short. Not a great controller game.

@Mark: Thanks... there is an Atari Age Amidar tournament challenge going on and someone mentioned exactly what you said about A/B. So, I left it on A figuring someone knows more about this game than I do. I've never played it before yesterday and did a 40,000 pt. game after scratching together a rough pattern.

I made the unfortunate mistake of deleting my video before it had completely uploaded.  So sadly I don't have video proof of rollover.  I'll leave it to your feedback if I should remove this score, or if you will take my word for it that I did get 100k on it.

Sorry, thanks.

100k rollover occurs at 59:30

si!

Yes

@TheGalagaKing: Well just for giggles, I tried it your way

dots only and energizers

no ghosts or fruits

so is this supposed to be a dots only track or can we play it normally?

@Ivanstorm1973:

much appreciated

wow impressive

@omargeddon:

that's got some nice games on it, I need to try and procure one.

@omargeddon:

that's got some nice games on it, I need to try and procure one.

Si!

you're submitting for a NES game, that's a GBA.
Incorrect category.

@Bamse:

sorry forgot to mention rollover at 4:20

@S.BAZ: I understand where you're coming from. The remarks might seem unnecessary but I have to take into account keeping the comments sometimes to the point of an oversimplification

@JES: I did. Still working on it

The game began to glitch and freeze up at this point where the score reached 164,400 although I was on my last ship

a little embarrassed with this run after shooting 4 of my own ships in the mix

@S.BAZ: Can I say "well done"? Or "Baz is killin it!" ;)

Yes

voto si

@RetroRob: There were 7 I think. I posted one. JES's 250k erased his previous entry. My 2o6k erased my previous and now we're back to another of JES's erased for his 300k play.

@JES: As was I ;)

@JES: I don't really consider it bad news. Don't get me wrong, I admit I'm far from a great Galaga player unlike some legends on here and while I do like playing it from time to time, it is not really one of my favorites. Oyama was right, it's still a tedious and sometimes annoying version but still pretty good for Game Boy.

@JES:

thank you kindly

@JES: Don't be. I expected this... The game is afoot

Si!

Uh oh, it's a yes

yes

Yes!

@RetroRob: It is. I think this runs smoother than the C64 version.

@oyamafamily: My first time playing this version. I was not impressed

I went 100 levels, got bored with it. Suicide

@CoCoForest:

I'm not sure what the rules are but I was to understand is once you complete the game, that's it.  There is no carryover to "bonus" stages.  Your final score IMHO should be 59,310.

Sorry, have to vote No here.

@omargeddon:

how the heck was this approved with zero evidence?

Yes

Yes

@RetroRob:

I like your new avatar, very 8 Bit! :)

@Ivanstorm1973: Not so fast, Sir Ivan... (( vincent price cackle mixed with lightning and thunder )) Heh heh BWHAHAHAHAHAA...

Accepted. But why aren't you at your post? :)

@RetroRob: I don't enjoy playing retro games on an Xbox controller but for now it will have to suffice. My Xarcade has lag issues hooked up to other consoles

Rollover + extra life glitch for 10 million occurs around 5:05:00

@Mark:

I tried rotating the pictures around before but somehow if it started out upside down, it stays upside down when posting it here.  Think I figured out which way to hold it now.

@Mark:

for those not familiar between the two versions, normal Berzerk (set 1) allows robots to gain firepower up to 6 fast bullets at once, but Otto retains his usual speed.

In Set 2, robot firepower is capped at 2 Slow bullets at once but after 5000 points Otto's speed is doubled.  Also, I think the robots fire immediately after the level starts instead of a 1/2 second pause.

It's so cuuuute! LOL green light

slightly better improvement

@Mark:

yeah sorry, You type the initials in and it didn't register the "D" but it went on to the "I".  There was no way to backspace.

end of video shows a score of 12000.
and how is it possible to have a "3" as the final digit?

2nd attempt at 2:05

@TheGalagaKing:

thanks, been trying to up my Galaga score too

1M rollover at 44:55

quite a bit tougher than the arcade IMHO

@oyamafamily:

followed it up with a 270k run... so close

@derek: I'm trying to not complain too much. I'm very upset that your scores are getting trolled as well. It's insane

@derek: I believe it is. I'm not an active Atari Age member like Oyama so you'll have to ask him. I am in awe of the quality. I would've been happy to have all these Pacman carts growing up as a kid.

no video this time.  This was my first ever attempt at Pacman Arcade version.  LOVE LOVE LOVE this and thanks Oyama for directing me to it. 
If I beat him, video for sure will follow.

I upped the FPS to 30 on recording... (game play still at 60 FPS).
Looks better, still flickers but visible

@omargeddon:

the troll is everywhere... especially on every score I've posted in the last few months

unfortunately the recording causes the ghost flicker to disappear.

Miss playing this game

@oyamafamily:

I heard he passed away.  Shame to hear that.
It looks good, I've tried it a couple of times...

videos may still be uploading... divided into 2 parts.  Final level 16-4 completed.

@Pjsteele:

fair enough, voted yes

@Pjsteele:

hey PJ, I think the score is legit, but shouldn't this be submitted under the Wii platform?  It was obtained through the Nintendo eShop right?   If I'm wrong, let me know

@derek: Ditto

@DarrylB: Sorry, forgot to switch it to public

I miss playing this

@oyamafamily:

the same X-Arcade stick I use for the MAME sessions

si!

@omargeddon:

me siento triste por ellos

@omargeddon:

demasiados trolos aqui

I could go back and do an extensive table like Mr. Oyama did before.  Bear in mind it would take a lot of time to do that and I'm not sure how to post it.

@Ivanstorm1973: Meh, don't play it all that often. This was one of my favorite 2600 carts as a kid. Hard as heck

@TheGalagaKing: I did one today and got 8500 pts. @ 102.7% so I was concerned mine wouldn't fly. Looks like I'll have try harder :)

so it can exceed 100% , it doesn't have to be 100% exactly?

@GTibel: Just trying to get to Black Belt :)

@omargeddon:

you won't be offended if I take a whack at this? ;)

Si!

@Ivanstorm1973: Yeh that's not really my PB but 10k was too hard to pass up. Not my best game on either actually

@Ivanstorm1973:

haven't messed with it too much, it's on the to do list

@Pjsteele: HNY PJ thx

Where's the pic showing 8500?

@Ivanstorm1973:

Happy New Year to the NO Trolls too, whoever and wherever they are (hiding).  Party poopers

@omargeddon: Happy New Year Omar. This game is terrible. LOL oh well

Why is the game called Mr Mary?

@TB303: Considering it. Real NES is expensive to find nowadays. Our old front loader was impossible to boot up anything

@Ivanstorm1973: Hey Ivan, I got 570k twice in the US/JP version. Don't know if that is of any consideration. It did seem a bit faster, not necessarily harder. I had more trouble dodging bolts the next time I appreciate everyone's input. I like this game a lot too.

No votes for "doctored evidence" and don't trust the user for "past actions" and legit issues? Now I know THAT is a load of crap courtesy of the troll trash squads.

Oh.. I feel embarrassed now. I usually like try to play the USA version but didn't realize I was playing Euro. I swear I wasn't trying to get an unfair advantage over Felix or Omar and everyone else on the leaderboard. I hadn't even considered the 50 Hz or 60 Hz issue. If you say it's legit then ok but I rather would take it down IF everyone else played on the faster 60 Hz US version. I played this at 4 in the morning so some fatigue came into play. I figured I had a shot at 500k, my personal best was closer to 400 actually and yeah I go and do this. Level playing field is paramount in what I do here. Still gonna go back and try this on US version and see if I can repeat.

1 million rollover at 39:53

@omargeddon: Apologies, it was still set to private instead of public. Fixed now.

@Ivanstorm1973:

I would caution you to not rely too heavily on patterns which is why I died early here.  Key to surviving this game is knowing what to do WHEN you have to ad-lib it your pattern breaks down.  Eventually it will happen.

@Ivanstorm1973:

PB 1,477,000  .. this pattern I learned from others but I have written my own later on.

@Maxwel: I am abstaining my vote for now.

@Maxwel: I stand corrected, I forgot there were JAMMA categories. I know Ivanstorm has a machine that looks similar but he submits in the MAME category. Either way, it is certainly not "Arcade"

All multicades fall under the MAME category. In order for this to be an actual arcade submission, it has to be older on an original board. If there are 3000 games on this cabinet, it's not the original.

I hate this game. LOL

yeah sorry this is not the original 2600 Pacman

not quite 75 million?  don't make me quote Pink Floyd!  ;)

game completed!  Level 16-4

@DuggerVideoGames:

I agree

You now most definitely have my complete and total undivided attention. ;) Well played.

You now most definitely have my undivided attention. ;)

Well done. You now have my attention. ;)

@omargeddon: I doubt I'm worthy of a movie. Would be cool but not holding my breath. Besides, I'm only 1/6th of the way to a WR

@omargeddon: Everything after 5-3 is a repeat, the speed, the disc locations, the appearances of all objects. Only things seems to be random are which path they take bouncing downward and when Coily's ball (snake) starts dropping

@omargeddon: No worries. My Spanish is barely adequate. I would encourage you to keep working on Q*bert. When I was a kid, it took me years just to get to level 3. There is a pattern to it, just have to be patient and watch.

thanks for the nice words.
I was going to go on but my body had other plans at 2 in the morning.  The plan is next time to break 10m.
I had to suicide over 200 Berts in the process.  Poor little guys.

last photo was taken with Jeffrey Lee, Q*bert's designer, the day after I finished the game.  He was watching it live on Twitch as well.

sorry meant last "winter"

This was taken last year at GGA in Chicago, IL.

The score was verified by the entire staff and automatically submitted to Aurcade's database. 
The video was taken and uploaded to Twitch but I don't know if they keep video evidence of it going back almost 10 months now. 
If this will suffice, I'll leave it up.... if not I will take it down.  A few were asking about my PB on this game due to the MAME submission I made last night.  I was hesitant about submission based on just the few photos I have.  I understand people want ample proof and I respect that.  I will see if a link to the video can be still obtained.  GGA for sure still has it but like I said there were many witnesseses that day.
The game lasted 12 hours.

  Appreciate your feedback.  Thanks

won't let me insert a picture on here...

6 million pts.

it begs the question, would this be enough proof for the Arcade board here?Reply

@omargeddon: I'll try again soon. An hour long game was all I could stand last night.

@Ivanstorm1973: Just barely

game ends at level 20

@S.BAZ: Thx

I died in some dumb ways there but it's all good.

@Ivanstorm1973: Only if the TV is upside down too

@Ivanstorm1973: Set 3 (this version) claims you start with 3 lives but in reality is just 2 lives. That's why it's often referred to as 2 life VVC. The other versiob (vanvank) is Karateco's release instead of Sanritsu. Both appear to be identical beyond that.

@Frankie:

48:49 = 200k
1:13:10 = 300k

@GTibel: Hooray! I'm a verb. :) Sorry, GTibel. Much respect in your skills too. I was losing concentration after 100k

what about my idea of a 2nd Wavy Navy track with the proper ROMS

@GTibel: It is too easy without the helis shooting back. The C64 version I have works. Maybe a new track for Helifire on could be implemented since this one is already out there.

Thanks, oyama is a tough player

@GTibel: Kind of stumbled upon these patterns on my own, via trial and error. They aren't exactly complete but it gets me on the right track. The rest is on the fly as usual.

excellent

for some odd reason, the game crashed at the end of Level 16.  (shrug)

100k rollover occurs at 22:30

@GTibel:

nice

I noticed there are 3 Roc n rope tracks each with a different spelling. What's the reason for that?

You're probably playing it on Normal difficulty which are TG settings. But Default is Easy 1. I deleted the CFG file before playing to make sure the DIPS are set that way.

why is it still posting the pic upside down?  That's odd.

rollover at 1M occurs at 40:25

not sure what more ID is needed and in what form.

@pathebert:

I think that way there's at least one version where it's possible to get the perfect score 3,333,960.  You have to have 5 lives for that.  For the others, 3 lives is good.

@pathebert: Actually I discussed it with Kernzy beforehand, the guy I challenged. He says Pac-Man is 3 lives but Puckman is 5 lives.

@wowitsbob:

you win... for now. 

Accepted.

You're up Bob.

@wowitsbob: Good job, I'll be back at it

@pathebert:

thank you.  It's gonna be a challenge with no real pattern to work on by the time I reach the 9th key.

Do people get sent these name badges or does one just print out their own with whatever design?

@Giorvam: Sorry, it's public now

died on level 31, :(  so close

@pathebert:

thank you

@Immortalgeo: Thanks. I try to make sure there's no doubt although the steps I take I am just playing it by ear and watching what the others do. I did a 26 million point run not too long ago but didn't know if it would get legitimized here. It's on Twin Galaxies somewhere and legit, damned if I ever play that game again :$

Never tried the coleco version yet

What difficulty settings are needed? I forgot what's considered "default"

@S.BAZ: I think 5 others did

Thanks. Hope everyone enjoys my contributions

zero dead

@TheGalagaKing:

this was more of a test to see what would work.  There was a live video stream for this which Facebook took down because of the rock music in the background.
I don't mind repeating this, I told Mr. Day I would eventually go for the highest ever MAME or Arcade.  It'll take about a little less of an hour per million give or take.

I can still run the INP replay to youtube if people want this. 

 

and no Maxwel, I haven't watched your video yet.  I'm just now figuring it for out myself.

@Maxwel:

done.

I don't really have a pattern, just like to patrol the edges as the wave comes back up or down, color the 3 corners first then get as much done before finishing the last corner

in later stages, get as far away from the tracer as possible when he starts attacking you, then you just have to keep pace with him.  Avoid reversing as much as you can as that eats up valuable gap distance with the tracer

@Maxwel:

wasn't sure if this was going to fly or not to be honest.

The link to the originial thread includes the INP.  It would be a playback of what I did back in August, trying to avoid any unnecessary votes of "oh he stole someone else's video performance" which is rubbish.

If I have to, I'll do it all over again and put up four million or higher.

Just curious how transferring a TG record which has already been verified 5 months ago would work on here.

@kernzy: took a few tries to get the hang of the controls
