your best scores on games you own.

I ended my game on building 9 with a couple of men in reserve it does get tougher through all buildings not sure when it maxes out. My PCB had been resetting so I killed the game once I passed the old 80s wr.

If you weren't recording the game, why end it?

Ridiculous. You gotta make it out to the Funspot tourney at some point. I'd love to see this.

Right. I suck overall. It's kind of like the Hank Aaron effect- I get a lot of home runs because I play an awful lot.

Bear in mind that that's my MAXIMUM score to date.

I average about 220K but can usually crank out a 300K+ within a handful of games.
 
pacman fast stopped at 1,000,000
ms.pacman fast 710,000
pacman slow 376,000
donkey kong 245,00
spy hunter 460,00
super pacman 400,000 i made this score cause i installed the high score save and kept trying to beat myself.
mr.do fast stopped at 1,000,000
donkey kong jr. 165,000
pole position2 . 275,000 the score circuit is messed up .lol
missile command 19,000 i suck!!
 
Donkey Kong - 391,400
DK Jr - Approx 125,000
D2K - 79,XXX

I still need to put in some time on DK JR. and D2K. Once I break through on a couple levels my scores should go up considerably. I'm starting to get stuck on DK. I've had a couple games in the 390,000 range now and as soon as I start thinking "I'm going to break 400K" I die. Never fails.

Still I'd love to see that old record fall. You should start taping just in case. Fwiw my best was 280k before Richie sold his CC _

Agreed. Spy Hunter is tough, and anything in the multiple hundreds of thousands is damned impressive.

When it comes to competing on classic arcade games, as long as people are playing on the same settings (analogous to playing baseball under the same basic rules) only one thing matters at the end: who has the highest score.

Don't be so modest. Anyone who can whip out a 300K+ on Crazy Climber in just a few attempts definitely does not suck, and you have the only known reported score of 500K+. That is a huge score on a very tough game. No one tracks how many credits it takes to get a world record score. All that matters is that you have the skills and you pull off the performance and can document that performance adequately (via live referee or with unbroken video that includes filming the game's settings). As a hypothetical example, does anyone care if Steve Wiebe had to play twice as much as Bill Mitchell to build the skills necessary to play Donkey Kong at the highest levels and claim the world record? No. No one cares who practiced more. (In fact, in sports all that extra practice to get to world class level is admired, not looked down upon.) The only thing that matters is who's on top, and who's on top is whoever has the highest verified score at any given time.

So promise me you won't ever play Crazy Climber again without recording. ;)

Thanks.

I'm pretty sure I could break a million given some more playing time but virtually all of my limited arcade playing/repair time gets taken up by repairs these days. :(

Exactly! Go for it Kstillin!
 
Been so long since I played. I only have the board that I throw in my Gyruss, until I get a CC or convert a project cab I have. I can beat this, but this was the last time I played:

So does nobody still not make a Megatouch "emulator" unit that you can use their games and your own hardware?
