NEW AND IMPORTANT Time for some arcade-related education from Wikihow!

This site has been a joke the last 4 years or so, between the god awful writing and the hysterically bad illustrations.

I used to try and maintain a couple pages there but I got fed up with having to revert changes because someone kept putting ascii dicks everywhere.

Wow.... just wow...

"How to Beat the Atari at Centipede"

1. Move around. Moving around helps. If the last part of the Centipede is at the bottom, move until it floats back up! But watch out for the spiders and bugs that fly and drop!

2. Hit the red button almost all the time. Remember, if you hit the button quickly and move all the time, you can kill the Centipede and move to the next color and Centipede.

3. Use your dexterity. This is a video game, so it requires 100% dexterity. Your thumb may throb and swell, but it's worth it!

4. Try your best. If you try hard, you can win greatly. Some people have it in their blood. Others can't do it. But the old motto says If at first you don't succeed, try, try, again.

5. Be patient. Rome wasn't built in a day, it took months or years to build. It takes a lot of time to do it. Believe me, I took time, and it helped!

6. Practice, practice, practice. It can take weeks or months of practice and time to win at Centipede.

This should have been titled "How to Beat the Atari at Centipede for Make Benefit Glorious Nation of Kazakhstan".

Was the only one I read over there, I guess the reason why I suck at it is, I don't do #2, I thought you were suppose to hit the white button most of the time, not the red start button, how stupid am I??? Also never knew you had to move around, I thought the big white ball was to keep your beer can from falling off. Hopefully I can play mine for months to build up my dexterity and WIN at centipede!
 
Sounds like someone should make an edit to this guide and insert a few ascii dicks.

All these years I've been sending them to friends and coworkers and had no idea they had a name.

Ascii dicks.
