The Professor Posted December 3, 2015 Report Share Posted December 3, 2015 "Scoreboard" requires video ......I only have digital camera pics of the TB versions We strongly encourage players to take the effort to post videos, but all that's required for Scoreboard is a picture. You should post your high scores Arena! Plus, your photos carry added credibility as the games were played in public at a gaming expo. That's legit! Check out the section on "Posting Photos & Videos". "A photo of your score is all that's required, but we strongly encourage recording your gameplay if you can." Complete instructions for the Scoreboard are here: http://forums.atari.io/index.php/topic/1213-scoreboard-how-to-post-your-score/ Arenafoot and Justin 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nosweargamer Posted December 3, 2015 Report Share Posted December 3, 2015 I haven't played Greatest Hits on DS, but if it's the ORIGINAL ROM being emulated, that would qualify. If you believe it passes the "Am I playing honestly and fairly?" test then it should be good. We want to make this as easy as possible for everyone to easily participate without being complicated and without being unfair. 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 AlamoAtari, Retrogamer81081, RickR and 4 others 7 The No Swear Gamer on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UChtJuo040EOCTVziObIgVcg Host of The Atari 7800 Game by Game Podcast on iTunes, Stitcher and YouTube Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RadioPoultry Posted December 4, 2015 Report Share Posted December 4, 2015 Here's my score: 76040. Achieved on a 7800 with a twitchy wico joystick that's lost its ability to center.

Sabertooth Posted December 5, 2015 Report Share Posted December 5, 2015 I played about 10 times and I consistently start topping out in the mid-high 30s. Here is my best score of the night. I'll try again this weekend if I have another opportunity. Played on a LHE modded 7800 with one of my homemade sticks. Side note: I found it a little strange playing the 2600 version on the 7800 because the 7800 version is great in its own right.

greenween Posted December 6, 2015 Report Share Posted December 6, 2015 I tried a few times on my 7800 with a 2600 controller. My hands have just gotten too old for this one. I couldn't break 30,000, first attempt using Stella and a PS1 controller I hit 50,000! So the controller definitely makes a difference for me. Back to it!

I had the same issue. It was holding down the button that really cramped my hand. Switching to an emulator and a Logitech gamepad really helped me out. Maybe a Genesis controller would work too. I'll try that next. greenween 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greenween Posted December 6, 2015 Report Share Posted December 6, 2015 Same here! Left hand was cramping on me. I need to try my Genesis controller too. Any idea if the score rolls over at 100k? I plan on finding out tonight and would like to be ready just in case! RickR and The Professor 2 "Better to be king for a night than schmuck for a lifetime."

RickR Posted December 6, 2015 Report Share Posted December 6, 2015 I believe it does roll at 100k. According to Lee, who has done it on the easier level I think. greenween 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post RadioPoultry Posted December 6, 2015 Popular Post Report Share Posted December 6, 2015 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.

RadioPoultry Posted December 7, 2015 Report Share Posted December 7, 2015 OK, judging from a YouTube video I just watched, the score rolls at 1,000,000. The Professor, DeLorean and Justin 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlamoAtari Posted December 7, 2015 Report Share Posted December 7, 2015 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.

AlamoAtari Posted December 7, 2015 Report Share Posted December 7, 2015 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. Justin, StormSurge and greenween 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RadioPoultry Posted December 7, 2015 Report Share Posted December 7, 2015 Ah, but according to the manual, the easy mode does roll at 100,000. Interesting quirk. So Lee was correct as well. Justin 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
