WOW!  Great scores.  Who has tips for getting those high scores? 

Congratulations Everyone!
 
PLINK PLINK PLINK!! Congratulations everyone on a great game! This was only our second TurboGrafx-16 Squad Challenge, our first Sega Genesis Challenge and our first Double Feature, and this turned out tremendously well! To see this level of participation and enthusiasm is extremely encouraging! I'm pleased to see so many of you jump in and take part in this challenge, and I'm absolutely thrilled to see RickR become a TurboGrafx-16 owner and get his hands on a Turbo EverDrive. A few others have been talking about this in the chat as well. That's what these Squad Challenges are all about! I hope in some way this challenge and the forums in general encouraged Rick to give TurboGrafx-16 a try.
 I want to welcome new member @waKKo TV to the forums who participated in this challenge and posted a really respectable score of 7,758,700. Welcome to the forums wakko, it's great to have you here! I hope you had fun playing Devil's Crush and will join us again for High Score Squad again in the future! 
I posted a score of 107,287,300 playing Devil's Crush on TurboDuo. Atari Creep had a super strong showing with 22,237,100 points achieved on Sega Genesis. Kamakazi20012 and btbfilms76 were right on his tail with 12,516,100 and 12,251,000 respectively. RickR, TrekMD and waKKo TV round out the challenge with their very best! All of you showed how it was done, a huge congratulations to everybody who turned out for this Squad Challenge and posted absolutely incredible scores!
I hope everybody had fun with this game! I love pinball and think this is one of the best pinball video games of all time and it looks like some of you agree! I'll be opening Devil's Crush up in the Scoreboard, I'd love to continue this challenge there over the coming years and see how far we can take this game!
2019 will be changing it up in High Score Squad with new challenges for Lynx, SNES, Genesis, Master System, Atari ST, Jaguar, 5200, TurboGrafx-16, Intellivision, ColecoVision, and much much more, in addition to the usual lineup of video game systems. We may even have an Arcade challenge! Be ready to play all of these game systems, we'll be breaking new ground with more interesting Squad Challenges coming up very soon and throughout the year, and we hope to see you there. Way to go everybody!

I just want to say thanks for picking this game.  I'd never played it before this challenge.  I now I consider it the best video pinball game I've ever played. 
And now I realize how advanced the TG-16 really was.  It's version is better than the Genesis version.  I'm going to see if there are other games these two systems have in common to compare. 

New high score for me on the genesis version.  11117600
 

Found one at the Portland Retro Gaming Expo Swap Meet today.  I also included a pic of the other good junk I bought.  It works great.  Only one game.  Anyone have games for sale?
 

This isn't my High Score but I'm posting this anyway. I'm really proud of this score. My previous score was 107,287,300, but that was with a 100,000,000 special points bonus that I'm still not sure how I attained. Basically 7,287,300 plus that bonus. The score I'm sharing today is 78,946,500 was achieved without any hitting any substantial bonuses. I just played through a fairly uneventful but long game and came out with this score. You may have watched me get this score live on Instagram. Felt good about this and wanted to share with you guys.
78,946,500
 

LOOK at what came in the mail today!  I already had the microSD card.

Nice stuff! 
 

Here are the NES games I have for trade.

TrekMD, your article on the Supercharger is EXCELLENT.  Very nicely done.  Congratulations on getting that published. 

Old School Gamer Magazine Issue 8 is out today for online reading.  The print issue will follow soon.  This issue has an article I wrote quite a few months ago looking at the Starpath Supercharger for the Atari 2600, so be sure to check it out.
Shoot 'Em Ups..... we love to button mash on them at the arcades.  But its not all about slamming those buttons as Walter Day talks about in the Art of Shooting!  Or how about the greatest Atari 2600 Shooters by Brett Weiss, and the Darius Series arcade games that Adam Pratt talks about on page 28.
Plus cool articles on PUCK-Man being renamed, Horowitz's History talking bout 32X - Star Wars Arcade plus Mini Arcades, Ed Kelley, Tetris and Joseph Saelee and more! Read all about it!  Even better subscribe to the print edition and get it in your mailbox too!

Goodwill came through again for me today. Awesome find. Sadly it's missing the game. If anyone has the game and case I'd be interested in maybe doing a trade. I've got plenty of stuff

I'll save the Game Gears for another post.  I have one of the Majesco GG's. 
I also love the look of the OG SMS.  You nailed it:  black wedge with red splotch = eye catchy for sure. 

My latest offering.

Not sure its going to get much better than that for me lol but Justin joined me live tinight on Instagram. Had fun!
 

9921000 on the Genesis version

Wahoo!  Guess what came in the mail today?  A Genesis everdrive.  And it even plays SMS games.

Anyways, are you keeping separate scores for Genesis vs. TG-16 versions of this game?  Here's my first try at the Genesis game.  8566000.  Both versions are fun, but the TG-16 one looks and sounds better IMO. 

9839800 on the TG version. 
I got this score during Justin's instagram live feed.  Justin, you are good luck!

I sold a Macintosh performa a couple weeks ago and guy messaged me a couple days ago asking if I had a dreamcast. After some talking me made a trade and I walked away today with my first ever colecovision
