    @RickR Absolutely! @RickR Perfectly acceptable way to play if that's the right fit for you. Relax and get comfy for the summer! The original NES cartridge has game save backup, which is one of the reasons why the cartridge was so expensive at the time. The Legend of Zelda is also available on Nintendo Switch, on the NES Classic Mini, and also on Nintendo Wii, Wii U, and even the Game Boy Advance NES Classics release is acceptable for this Let's Play Challenge, since scoring isn't an issue here.

    Let's organize a Top Gun watch party! Atari I/O Summer Pizza Party is now PIZZA PARTY SUMMER and runs from June 15th through July 31st! During this High Score Squad Challenge, we're going to be watching the original Top Gun from 1986 and sharing our thoughts on the movie here. With the new Top Gun in theaters, I thought this would be a perfect time for us to have a watch party for the original. Top Gun is widely available to be streamed on almost any platform, and I don't doubt many of you still have Top Gun on VHS somewhere 😎 Let's organize a watch party and share thoughts of the original film, as well as the new Top Gun sequel currently in theaters if you've seen it. (No spoilers!) This is also a great time to share your memories of seeing the original Top Gun in the theater and what was going on when you first saw it. Enjoy!

For this Squad Challenge we're playing Big Shot, a very simple pinball game released by Gottlieb in 1974. Big Shot is based on the game of pool. You'll find this to be a simple game, although the paddles feel far apart which leads to some real challenge and potential frustration. You are welcome to play Big Shot any way you are able to, including on any Legends Pinball set up, on any phone or tablet, and using the real pinball machine itself. This Legends Pinball Challenge will run through June 30th, 2022. Good luck!!

    Pole Position II Atari 7800 Difficulty: Fuji High Score: 75,250 June 14, 2022 Notes: 🏆 NEW WORLD RECORD 🏆 This score of 75,250 points was achieved on June 14, 2022 and performed on video for submission to HighScore.com as this will be a new high score on that platform for Fuji Circuit played on original hardware. Previous runs leading up to this high score were documented with photos showing the progression of my score as part of the 2022 Pole Position II Grand Prix in the Atari I/O High Score Squad. You can view this score's submission on HighScore.com here: http://highscore.com/score/index.php?s=113367

    Congratulations Racers! Congratulations to everyone who joined in the big race!! We had a FANTASTIC turnout for this Grand Prix! Absolutely stellar! Fuji is the legendary and iconic "Pole Position Track" from the original game, difficult enough to provide moderate challenge to us adult players but still easy enough for beginners to join in and fun to play. One of the points of criticism I see the Atari 7800 receive fairly often is that it came with Pole Position II as its pack-in title. I thought Pole Position II was a really fun game. I hope you did too! I came in 1st Place to take the top spot on the podium, crossing the finish line to enter the winner's circle with a high score of 75,250. I feel like the game has a few hundred more points to give up and I know it's certainly possible to shave another second or two off of my time, but who knows. I was able to achieve this score multiple times yesterday but unfortunately unable to do better in time for this Squad Challenge to come to an end. I'll share video of this performance on YouTube. I may continue my pursuit of a higher score. @Marco1019 is back in action and takes 2nd Place on the big podium with a final score of 75,00 in a photo finish just 250 Points behind me. "The Don" @RickR takes 3rd Place with an incredible showing of 73,050 points, and @Sabertooth takes 4th Place on the podium with an impressive 71,000 points! @Atari 5200 Guy takes 5th Place with a very respectable 68,700 points, "The Mayor" @greenween is back once again to nab the 6th Place spot in our Final Standings with his showing of 68,150 points, and @Dinobot711 joins us with his score of 54,790 points taking 7th Place. @Gianna scored a respectable 41,860 points, entering the board in 8th Place, and @TrekMD shared a score of 41,790, rounding things out in 9th Place. Incredible scores from our 8-Bit Pit Crew, all of whom posted real scores that took effort and skill to achieve. BRAVO everyone!!! As I always encourage others to do, I'll be posting my new high score on the Scoreboard to make sure this Challenge continues on! Did you enjoy this Squad Challenge? If so, keep practicing your racing skills throughout the year and we'll see you back here on the track again next June to celebrate the Monaco Grand Prix with our running of the 2023 Pole Position II Grand Prix! I hope everybody had fun this year! NOTE: Our next High Score Squad Challenge is the Pizza Party Summer Special Event. Be there!
