koifish | 588 Posted December 29, 2020 Share Posted December 29, 2020 (edited) Alright! The good news is, I am already much better at this game than I was at waterworld. Gonna post current high score in a bit. Okay, score added. After a few rounds I really hit my stride. Not sure if I can repeat it, but here is my entry: 233 Unfortunately, Nester is too impatient to stay still on score screens, and it passed the high scores screen before I could screenshot it, but I did get the big flashy number. I probably won't be able to surpass that, but I may try again this weekend. Edited December 29, 2020 by koifish Added score marker 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This makes me curious; are there virtual boy emulators that support 3D TVs? That was the one tech bandwagon that I wish I could have afforded to buy into back in the day. Now I have the money but it's hard to get 3D stuff. Some games I own on PC also support 3D Vision, but you can't actually get that software or hardware anymore.

I think I watched Avatar on it and that may be it. Really haven't got much use of the the 3d feature but a vb emulator would solve that. This is my setup at the moment. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
koifish | 588 Posted January 3, 2021 Share Posted January 3, 2021 I think I'm throwing in the towel, I tried again and couldn't even crack 175. I'll just try to recover for next game. I am bummed out that I forgot to submit for Water World. Maybe I will pick up some wins next time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Splain | 2,679 Editorials Team · Posted January 4, 2021 Share Posted January 4, 2021 I used to bowl some decent games a long time ago, but I've had no time this week to remember my strategies, lol. Here's a last-second participation score. I'll have more time for 3D Tetris as life returns to normal this week. 104 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
