Topic: Arcade SHMUP High Score Thread

@DashKappei sounds good, maybe I'll pick up City Connection after all.

I'll round up the scores for Donkey Kong when the challenge is over.

Just bought CITY CONNECTION myself 🚗 😎

Oh and SINE MORA EX as it is down to £9.99 (60% off on the UK eShop).

I am in guys. Gonna pick up City Connection

Jump on CITY CONNECTION Caravan mode: @corneel @dashkappei @zkibu It's empty on the leaderboard. Only 19 entries so far. I'm bottom at the moment - still trying to figure out what I'm meant to be doing, lol! ☺️

I won't get the time to play it for the current challenge but also picked up Arcade Archives DONKEY KONG this evening with some Gold Coins. Look forward to seeing all your names on the leaderboard way above me 😂

@Lroy I'm down for some retro challenge. Going to check the other thread out. I'll play on Dreamcast. Not sure on city connections yet, I'll have to try it first.

@CW13 Cool. There's no set deadline for CRAZY TAXI so just whenever you happen to boot it up and feel like posting your score is cool. We're simply doing Arcade mode with all the settings left to default. You can pick any driver/cabbie you want.

If you mean by 'other thread' the Adult Switch Gamers Discord. See the link in @naviandmii signature - be cool to see you over there.

lol @lory @masterLeon yeah I noticed it was a tad empty where are you guys?
Tho I'm sad because I think this is a true arcade classic following the path of mental-/tactical approach similar to Bombjack,and Amidar. I'm gonna check out the scores on PS4 and I'm also curious to see if they"ve also have correct Caravan Mode on PS4 since that was an early ACA ps4 release

P.S.
Too bad I got my Dreamcast in Italy tho I've never quite loved CT I must admit

@DashKappei Ha! Ha! That CITY CONNECTION's Caravan leaderboard is quite sparse right now is only because the game has only just launched. It's actually a nice change to be among the first people playing the Caravan mode. I suck at the game though so no doubt my score will disappear out of the top 100 as it gets more people playing ☺️

I'll write up the Ikaruga leaderboards later today. I took a screenshot right after the challenge finished so have the correct scores. As for DK and Pinball I've really not a clue so could do with some help with that. As for the next challenge I've bought City Connection so looking forward to taking part in that.

Again my apologies to everyone, it's been a fairly mad few weeks for me. One of my good friends who is also an ex-girlfriend is really ill at the moment and I've been helping her with hospital visits. This has coincided with me meeting someone else I really like but who doesn't know I'm helping an ex-gf so my heads been a bit all over the place recently.

Here's a permanent link to the Discord server fella's, if any of you would fancy joining? https://discord.gg/ufMFfdr

(I'll just tag @Daftbomb here too - had a lot of fun playing Fortnite with you last night! ..@mauhlin12, @SonOfVon and I got a little impromptu session together through Discord - it was great to have you with us as well! ..feel free to join us over there too if you'd like - you'd be most welcome! )

I'm not sure if this is the thread where I post my score or not but my best DK arcade Hi Score Mode (International version) is 136,700. If I can get a better score I'll post but for the moment, that's my best.

Played some Donkey Kong on an actual arcade today. It was a multicade with 15 games on it. Not sure if it was MAME or an actual arcade board inside. I got the high score but couldn't beat my personal best.

So, the Donkey Kong challenge has completed with only one entry I believe.

Congratulations! @bezerker99

Oh no, only one entry really? I thought there we more than a few others playing - like @grailuk and @masterleon ? We really need to get this thread back on track. Had a real vibrant and well represented series of challenges before summer arrived 😎

@Lroy I've been super busy recently, but as a wise man once said...'I'll be back.'

@GrailUK No worries, I've not entered a score myself since?!! Maybe TERRA CRESTA or one of the PINBALL FX 3 tournaments.

Be good to get things back up and running though. If you have a score for DK though, as I think you had been playing it? - feel free to post it.

I can't join the City Connection challenge as I can't afford any more games for a while!

But @OorWullie, here's the Inversus Castle stage scores. ..

@GFoyle 90771
@hybridseed 38503
@daftbomb 38121
@OorWullie 4817

Shame it was so quiet, great little game, hope this helps you out bro and hope your friend gets well soon ☺

@Corneel Hey, thanks!

I wanted to get City Connection over the weekend but my cell phone died on me and now I have to spend all of my money paying that thing off (I still owe $200 on it) and I have to find a replacement. Anyone have any good suggestions for a nice tablet???

Anyways, good luck to everyone and hopefully this thread can get back on track soon.

@DashKappei

I regrettably missed the DK challenge but I’m on with City Connection. I’ll post a score.
