Continued from >>2862959

I think it'd be neat if daily, we had all played a simple arcade game and see who can get the best score. So I'm going to try that.

Today will be Donkey Kong. I'm using Nestopia and the (JU) version of the rom. No clue what that means, all I know is this has 3 levels, not 4.

Attached is my shitty high score. Only made it to the 2nd loop, didnt really try, just wanted to put a "goal" for you guys to try to beat.


I also made a stupid google doc so we can keep track of scores.

Just post a screenshot, the windows frame if you can, and let's just promise not to photoshop, k?

I hope this can be a regular thing, I personally like trying to beat other people scores.

Billy Mitchell reporting in... Please explain how Pphotoshop edits could be detected if and when used. Not that I would consider doing such a thing.
>>
>>2864028
I think it would be like a honor code thing.
>>
>>2864028
Because people on /vr/ are too retarded to use photoshop.
>>
>>2864028
There's no reward, why bother

People arent even bothering to play the dang game, why bother to photoshop
>>
>>2864058
/vr/ highscores of the week?
>>
>>2863997
(JU) means that it's the version of the game released in Japan and the US.
>>
Sorry it took so long. I was playing a game of Metroid and I didn't wanna stop.

Since when did bragging rights become irrelevant?

You know you can delete posts if you make a typo right?
>>
>>2864149
Which is exactly what I did? Yes, I do.

I suggest deleting your post as well
>>
>>2864112
>12 hours in and this is the only score submitted

I'll try to beat you score. You playing on a CRT?
>>
>>2864564
I look forward to trying to beat your new High Score.

Yeah its my favorite way of playing old games like this.

The one thing thats always bothered me about this game is how the levels seem to get easier as you progress (meaning I feel lv 3 is the easiest while 1 is the hardest. I know it gets more difficult the more loops you complete)

I just remembered this has Game A and Game B, i dont know what the difference is, but I did Game A.

>>2864573
You probably got used to the pattern and controls or something by the 2nd loop
>>
>>2864580
I think game B is suppose to be harder or something.

I made some stupid mistakes, better than my original score at least.

Since this thread is more dead than Clu Clu Land, maybe this will be weekly instead of daily.

>Since this thread is more dead than Clu Clu Land
Would love to join in on the fun but sadly I do not own a copy of Donkey Kong. Maybe next week.
>>
>>2865010
emulate it man, that's what i'm obviously doing
>>
>>2865015
Don't actually have a computer to emulate on anymore. Ever since my last one took a shit I've been too lazy/cheap to buy another.

Is this only for arcade games?

I have a hi-score for Ballon Trip too, fun game to play for score.
>>
>>2865648
Anything with a high score. I was hoping this would be a daily thing, but only 3 people (me included) submitted scores, so i'll make it weekly


Also fyi, anyone can edit the google doc to add themself.

alright, nice, here's my Balloon Trip score, I forgot to stamp it but whatever.

Also I was playing the arcade version of DK (on DK64), not the NES one.
>>
>>2865686
Does the one on DK64 have 4 stages? If it has 4, then it might be in invalid score compared to the other 2 people.

Also, I'm only doing Donkey Kong for the week and then we'll do another game next week, probably Balloon Fight.
>>
>>2865690

Yeah it has 4 stages, it's the original arcade version of DK, so I guess you're right, I didn't notice you were playing the NES version until after I posted.
>>
bumping this thread for my hopes and dreams
>>
>>2864058

wasn't the billy mitchell reference an obvious clue to that being a joke? just how autistic are you fuckers?
>>
Posting asteroids, CRD 21240

Hope I make the top 10! Or at least top 100...
>>
This looks fun, DK still the current game?

Ya. I'll make a new thread when it changes game.

I'll also put the name of the game in the post/topictitle instead of the namefield next time
>>
I'll give it a try

Fuck I used to be pretty good at NES Donkey Kong. My highest score was 320,300 points. Got all the way to Loop "D". If I can make it up there again and post a screenshot I will.
