It takes me more than 3. I almost gave up after about 10 tries last night. When I finally got it, I was fired up like I had beat a really hard level.

Not sure what happened there. I can beat Tyson in the first round if I have a good run. I think I knocked him out in 2:15 back in 2015. Usually it's closer to the 2:40-2:50 mark.

Tremendous music so a guy I know “him and her got it on wooooooooweeeeee” no but seriously a guy I know runs the local convention. He slated me a spot for a chip tunes panel. I’d love to get some ideas from you guys. I have a format of: play the tune for 30 sec then contestants have a sheet of paper to fill out the following. game series (1 point) specific game title (1 point) and extras, specific stage or area of the game (1 point) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we can't get most of them, you are probably going too obscure. The people in this thread are probably well above average level of knowledge than the average conventioner. On the other hand, if we get all get them all, probably too easy. Ive had people send me tik tok videos where you have to listen to 5 clips and name the games. I usuallly go 5 for 5 or 4 for 5. But they typically use the most basic games. Of course me and everyone else in the world will get smb, contra, etc. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed your format sounds solid. You could also use the 8/16 bit version of jeopardy theme in between rounds for fun. Could Also do a guess the movie /TV theme featuring the music in licensed games. Couple weeks were all going to have the tiny toons theme in our nightmares 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure if it also plays during gameplay Finally got back to where I can consistently beat tyson, but my times suck. I should be able to get tyson 2nd round, but didnt execute. Hopefully I can get back to the basement for another playthrough before the weekend is out. Edited July 22, 2023 by NESfiend 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure if it also plays during gameplay I was thinking this is like a 5 of 10 on the difficulty scale for someone who says they play nes and would want to participate in the game. So you didn’t name the series. I’d like to give that as an option (in cases where it’s the first game of a series) for anyone who doesn’t know the actual game but writes down “that sounds like a ninja turtles game” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
