chas10e got a reaction from nosweargamer in "Unofficial" Squad Challenge - Video Pinball (Atari 2600)
228,677
getting closer to the score NSG put on his video ( that one doesn't count though )
still have to read the manual for the proper nomenclature but a good strategy for this challenge ... get extra ball as soon as possible .then juice the bumpers ... I am wondering if the lock-in at 9 or revert back to 1 ( only got 'em up to 8 so far ) then nudge the left bonus lane til your hand is cramped !!!
I have been ape-flipping this one and I know it caused atleast ONE drain .

the difficulty I think I am having is that the ball is square, and theses aren't "PAPA rules" https://papa.org/
but it IS pinball so I am going to complain the whole time

PnP in a half-shell ... awesome
I think that N64 controller could be the Mona-Lisa of controllers

haven't really played this since when it first came out.
got it plugged in to my console & gave it a run (no pic) tilted once ... I used to beable to keep in in the left upper lane for quite awhile
after tilt you still get your bonus it seemed so "Push that machine through the wall "
yeah busy summer for me too so will try to get some kind of score up
thanks NSG

If for some reason you are not familiar with the game, you can check out my review to learn how to play and maximize your score.
PROTIP: Learning to use the nudge is HUGE in gaining big points!

And here are trade items from nosweargamer. Some very nice rarities for 2600 and Intellivision, and a bunch of extras because Phil is just awesome. THANK YOU.

First this Dell Laptop:
It's older, but perfect for my needs (writing show note while watching the baby).
Next, something I just recenly got:
AN EMERSON ARCADIA WITH GAMES! (look for reviews at some point in the way future)
THANK YOU RICK!

I have that same Zelda castle display in my room! Mine still has the Link cut out, too. I use it for storing PC disc games.
171 pound TV!!! And I thought my 32" JVC needed to go on a diet. It weighs 112 pounds which I had to move on my own. At least I am on first floor.

The stand is only about 35 miles away from me. Which doesn't sound all that bad. Honestly id have to take the 91 freeway over there. That's like one of the nation's worst freeways. It'll probably take like 2.5 hours round trip.
Working a bit more in the game room again.
So messy.
Can't wait for it to be done!

Wow! Thank you Justin for offering that sweet prize.
Great score Chas. I tried a few more times, but ended up in the 7,000 range.

Here's the best I've been able to get, 3'222. Played on my 7800 with paddles. I have to say this game is going in my top 10 of 2600 games. Very fun, great choice for the high score challenge.

That's a pretty handsome stand, how far is the drive?
Might have to "make a day of it" & try to discover a gamestore or arcade or something. sometime folks will meet halfway so they can "make a day of it"
might wanna put a rug down to tie the room together as well
