Good point, I never really thought about that before. According to wikipedia, it looks like you can go up to Round 99, and if you beat that you get Round 0 which is a kill screen. So if you get that far I'd say that probably counts as "beating it".  Would be interesting to see how quickly the ducks fly in round 99.

I was under the impression Gun.Smoke does have an actual in-game ending on the NES version, but I've never even gotten close so I don't really know for sure.

I managed to get to the Duck Hunt kill screen a few years ago and from what I remember the ducks don't really get any faster after you get to the round (I think 20?) where a single miss will end your game. 

Welcome to the site!

Welcome aboard!

Good to see you made it over too!

Miami Dolphins 1972 baby. 

I can't wait for that Week 16 Bengals/Dolphins game for the #1 overall draft pick. The Bengals are tough enough to watch as is, but between last season and this one I wish the NFL would reinstate the blackout rule just so I could see a decent game during the Bengals time slot without having to go somewhere with the NFL Direct Ticket package.

I really hadn't been very active on there in the past year and it seemed like the overall activity had started slowing down before that. It looks like most of the more active posters are already on here so I don't see any real need to go back even though it is disappointing to see how everything went down after being a longtime member over there for almost 8 years.

I had to go with the original, although to this day I still haven't played through the second quest. I really need to get on that one of these days.

I actually tried this a few years back just for fun. I've played both games so many times (literally since they came out) that I can usually beat them on 1 life without much trouble. Keep trying and I'm sure you'll be able do it!

You can tag people twitter style on here? That's pretty cool! As soon as I saw the contests were moving over here I made sure to join right away. I'm glad to see that they're still going strong!

Good to see all of the familiar names already. This looks like the place to be!

Welcome Doug, good to see you!

Thanks! I'm not too tech savvy so it might take me a while to get used to the new site, but it looks great!

I just found my way over here. Good to see the weekly contests are still going to continue on the new site!

Just joined from the old site! Glad to be here!
