NESfiend | 1,515 Posted April 19, 2021 Share Posted April 19, 2021 (edited) Score update page 2. Jumped Arnie by a few points, but still missed 170 by 1300 and change. No deaths and one wand on level 3. Really felt mistake free. Feel like that's as good as I got on one wand. @mbd39 is a straight up beast! Edit: beat my 2017 score by 80 points lol. Feels like Ive improved way more than that. In 2025, Ill be nipping at your toes, Michael Edited April 19, 2021 by NESfiend 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Krunch | 303 Posted April 19, 2021 Share Posted April 19, 2021 Sorry bout the slightly small name in my pics there, it’s in the top left, should be clear enough in one of em. The picture depicts King MBD about to lay the smackdown on anyone who gets close to his score 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just couldn’t seem to put it all together Nicely done edging me out for first amongst the mortals. I was trying like crazy to vest arnie to salvage a podium spot because I was sure you were coming with 170+ at some point. This was a really fun competition and Im pumped I hung with the big boys!

It was a wild ride. I played for a long time today, but the score I got was achieved early in my session. I knew you’d be clamouring for it, and I didn’t have the last bit of time so I was nervous there phewww 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fair enough nevertheless, this is a decrease for me, as I’ve exceeded 170K many many times. This Spartan x 2 I’m not familiar with, but for a guy who never had a SNES I can put up an okay showing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh I just said that cause the age I am I was in the 64 era and we had an NES for a bit (was my parents and they gave it away) but never had a SNES and thats when beat em ups were peaking. Not really much after that 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mbd39 | 2,020 Posted April 19, 2021 Share Posted April 19, 2021 I'm only good at this game with a NES dpad. For funsies I tried again with emulator and Playstation 4 controller and I couldn't even beat the game and was dying all the time. Muscle memory plays a huge part in this game. Once you have the muscle memory for a certain dpad then using something else can mess you up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's the only way to have total control of your marble Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's the only way to have total control of your marble No, I've never played the arcade with the trackball, my main experience is with the NES port which I also had as a kid. Those who have the muscle memory for trackball probably hate playing with the dpad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's the only way to have total control of your marble Playing this game with a trackball is such a unique and fun experience. The dpad never feels quite right, but the trackball feels realistically tactile in a way you rarely get to experience with a video game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here's my 2:55 run that I submitted to speedrun.com a while back. I far prefer playing MM for score. https://www.speedrun.com/marblemadness/run/mex4kk0z 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
