Is anyone doing dragon warrior?  I plan on doing a speedrun this week to see if i can get sub 6 and would knock it out in the process obviously.

I'm more than half way done with Dragon Warrior 2, but 1, 3, and 4 are up for grabs.

Not sure what to work on, someone pick:

Blaster Master, Silver Surfer (not too bad, just have to remember some parts), or start to learn again:

- Dirty Harry

- Jetsons

- Zen

- Toxic

Zen!

I actually like the game!

It's not bad. The large hitbox on Surfer's sprite takes some getting used to, and a couple of spots are a bit unfair where death comes out of nowhere, but that's not that atypical of NES games. The graphics are cool, it has humor, and the soundtrack is rockin'.

Yeah.  I'm convinced if they removed the auto-death hitting the sides of the screen, people would love this game a lot more, as well as making the default shot stronger.  When you're fully powered up on and know what to do, its easy.  Its still one of the 'easier' shmups on the system

Finally done with Dungeon Magic! For a whopping 17 points. Crazy. Time to play some shorter games again.

Congrats! That's one of only five games with 7 bonus points. The others are:

  • Battle Tank
  • Destination Earth Star
  • Flight of the Intruder
  • Flying Warriors

 

Flying Warriors is a 9 pointer, so there's only four games at the max of 17 points.

Some of those must be routinely beaten by people who have played them a bunch. I wouldn't call Bayou Billy or Ghosts 'N Goblins easy >.>;

Still plenty of easy stuff on the list though, I've got a list as long as my arm, just not enough time to beat them all. After work today I'll try to knock something out, but I'm trying to have more of a focus on "new to me" games this year, which will probably slow things down.

Yeah its funny to see that.  Like Battletoads being a 1 or something.

Working thru Silver Surfer using turbo to re-learn it.  Funny that I just beat it with the turbo.  The difficulty really lies in having to shoot very fast.  I cant use my thumb but have to use my index and tap the A button like I'm operating a morse code machine haha.  Anyway, I'll eventually get this done.
