Very nice Doc.

No missed 1-3, and then did terrible on 4 & 5. Somehow lost 2 lives to the snakes

Stage 3 is still whipping my ass something fierce. Hell of a game right here. I don't know how you guys are surviving stage 4, I feel like if I make it that far it's all luck from there on out.

Speaking of luck, I'm hoping to have my vertical monitor net city wired with a ps360+ in time for muchi muchi pork. I already have the 360 in there working great A/V wise, but I have to modify the wiring harness in the CP so I can easily switch between the JVS I/O and a ps630+ board. In the mean time, I'll keep working on this game.

@hash - there is a TLB on Ultra mode. This particular PCB was played more on maniac and ultra in the JP arcades as Original was considered "too easy" by the pros. It actually has a rather infamous bug in that if you are co-playing and player 2 is at the TLB in Ultra mode, the game does a soft-reset. CAVE charged $210 to have this bug removed at the cost of board owners. My PCB has the bug, but i'm quite sure i'll never be reaching the TLB on ultra, so not too worried about it.

.

I realized that after I posted the score. I forgot there is no TLB in Original Arcade. Not that I have a chance against the TLB based on the videos I've seen. Thanks for the tidbit.

You mean the centipedes at the end? The ones that circle around you shooting bullets from the head / body / and tail? I just smile thinking about that part - so dang fun. It's actually REALLY easy now and it's like a farm. I don't want to be giving you any tips, though, you'd probably clear with 40 mil.

Yeah, that part. Those centipedes are jerks. I almost had a No Miss on Stage 3 but the last two of those things got me. Thanks for keeping secrets! ;P

The bullet-cancelling pitcher plants. Time it right and you can keep cancelling bullets.

If I could only no-miss St1 and 2 on the same run, this would be even better. But man this last run, some of the finest shmupping of my career, weaving through bullets hanging on for that extend and then facing a boss that I had no idea how to handle.

^That's awesome dood! Seriously, that is huge progress on a game you've never played. Keep at it a few more days and see if you can hit 4mil!
