Seems like a lot of the Japan only releases are. And interesting to play for points when upgrades cost points. Very fun Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As if he's be playing any better with the Dolphins. But, if Herbert did play for the dolphins, would he be playing better than Tua? Yes. 1 hour ago, Bearcat-Doug said: I was hoping Miami would throw everything at Cincinnati to try and draft burrow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As it sits, my game is still in progress, so I'm not ready to submit, but I will say it's a grindy affair, with not much leeway to gain points - you either figure it out quickly or fail miserably. Thankfully, I've figured it out pretty quickly I will say the more you look, the more places there are to scrape some more points. The pineapple and lemon levels do eventually get hard(er) but it does take sometime to get there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also noticed a few of the levels getting a LOT harder by level 3 or so. I could only imagine how tough the end game is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

the_wizard_666 | 1,325 Posted November 22, 2021 Share Posted November 22, 2021 Man, the sheer amount of planning I am putting into this game to try and maximize points...Keroppi is probably the easiest game of the bunch to play through, but completing the levels is far from enough to do it up. @0xDEAFC0DE is right that there are ways to squeak a few more points out, but here's hoping that it's entirely unnecessary... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0xDEAFC0DE | 1,277 Posted November 23, 2021 Share Posted November 23, 2021 202,600 Finally got around to performing the run that I planned yesterday. There may be a few places where I missed a couple points, but this should be pretty close to optimal (unless I missed some other way of getting more points). This was a lot of fun. And if anyone's curious it's 203,800 after 8-8's bonuses. Spoiler 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PII | 1,883 Posted November 23, 2021 Share Posted November 23, 2021 @NESfiend One hit away from making it to the next race for my opener. I just presume you and I are having a loose, off-the-board competition this week in addition to our legitimate adversaries. So far for me this is like the fun of Rad Racer II Week and the Frustration of F-1 Race Week put together! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Im game for the competition, but Im sure you will get me like you did rad racer 2. This thing is a bitch! I was getting further upgrading, but upgades aint cheap. Cant really peg a good strategy.
