Hard to beat the Commodore PET, in my opinion.

 

78,010. Once you get past the crab-things, the game eases up a little, I think. I was stuck at 30,00 for a while, but then I got this score.

65,870

Here is my best score so far. I'll play again, we'll have to see if I top this. No strategy, just patience and a good run.
My High Score: 823,560

Welcome to our 104th Squad Challenge! We're going back to the beginning of Mario & Luigi's adventure together with Mario Bros. on the Nintendo Entertainment System! For some early NES players this served as their introduction to the world of Mario and was the first time anybody had heard the phrase "Mario Bros." Mario Bros. features two-player simultaneous cooperative play. PDF Instructions are provided below. It's time to kick back, relax, and knock over some shells with that  button! I hope you guys are ready for a new season of High Score Squad and good luck to everybody participating! THANK YOU FOR PLAYING!
 
NOTE: We have a supreme lineup of games coming your way for High Score Squad in 2021! Expect a nice mix of classic Atari home console games in the rotation along with games from other classic systems! Here's a look at some upcoming events:
 
September: An Atari Lynx game
November: A Sega Genesis game
December: 2021 F-ZERO Championship, plus a game for Atari Jaguar! 
Plus many more great games! (Schedule subject to change)

I loved Mario Bros. in the arcades during the 80s ❤️ I've not played many NES games (one or two), but this one looks good and doesn't look like the typical NES game with its (odd to me?) color palette.

OK, here's my score...
 

66,780 -- bit more respectible 🙂

Yes! There's hardly any screenshots of it on the internet, so I captured an image from a YouTube video.
