FWIW I use A/B. I press the button to fire and de-press when I want to move (faster). And I don't have be moving in order to fire forward. I think that might make it easier to deal with Gond.

If only my wife wasn't distracting me with her questions, I would have broke 90k.

I did it! I beat Gond for the first time ever on the 2600 version! Thanks for the tip! I also improved my score. 37,370.

OK, I got him this time. Thanks for the tip. Unfortunately, my score was 100 short of my last high. I'll keep trying.

Just to share some silliness. Growing up I always thought the enemies on the last stage were diagonal 2600 joysticks. LOL Now I see they are just downward facing arrows. LOL

I thought the exact same thing! They totally look like isometric joysticks.

I only briefly played Vanguard on the 2600 until today. It helps this time that I read the instructions on the firing control 😂
Loved Vanguard in the arcade. Very catchy and heroic-esque tune that rivals Moon Patrol's music.

Vanguard, be it the 2600 or 5200 port, has been my go to favorite on these two systems. Of course I'm in! The 2600 version does an amazing job. I have never seen nor played the actual arcade version...Atari has been the only systems I've played this game on.
