    Man, that's good stuff you found.  Stellar Track was only available at Sears.

    Not a trade, but the haul I made at that awesome store Wednesday. I didn't know where else to share this, though. :/
    Anyway, NES Controller, Hogan's Alley, Stellar Track, and Space Spartans.

    Was this thing perpetuated because of the burning that happened on arcade units? I remember the tvs at my work had a permanent burn from the CNN ticker being on almost 24 7 so I think it's possible, but you got to play a lot of the same game in order to do it. My parents were like we spent all this money on a tv, not going to have it ruined over a game.

    I was forced as a kid to play my Atari on a black and white tv. My parents fell for the rumors about screen burn. I tried to tell them that it only happened when you play a single game for hours on end. Never got to play in color until the 90s.

    By the way you got to be ready for the picture, the game clears out after a minute or so. I had to do my run again.

    Ok I managed to get two extra lives somehow playing this probably my best score using a color tv. Do they still make black and white? LOL. Can you see my sexy reflection in my screen. I had to wipe the screen off it was too dusty.

    If you wait, it will enter a demo mode, but your score will still show.

    99029. I could have probably hit 100,000, but I didn't want to roll the score (if it does roll there). Guess I need to start thinking about capturing video.

    While I do not have the ability, skill or knowledge to peek at the rom itself, I believe the GH DS collections to be on par with the Flashbacks as far as quality and faithfulness go. So much so, that I sold my physical copy I used for my review since I had it on this collection. Right now I only have a sealed copy that I do not want to open.
     
    Anywho, here is my first submission: 44,514

    We absolutely need to get that ROM released. Paperboy, RoadBlasters, and Marble Madness all should have been 7800 exclusives.
