Kurt_Woloch Posted September 13, 2009 Share Posted September 13, 2009 OK, here comes my report of another "flop" week, as I would call it for this topic... The classic game (relevant for the Top 10): Galaxian (Arcade) 3 minutes (again, only for the purpose of recording the sounds) The non-classic game: Crazy Taxi (PC) (yeah, again)... about 162 minutes Crazy Taxi (Gameboy Advance)... about 248 minutes And that's, I'm afraid, all I got time for this week.

Jr. Pac-man (7800) Week 48 You may have to do some checking - but I question if Jr. Pac-Man was the fastest a title has ever reached 1000 minutes - given that it was only released this summer. I'll bet the usual - $1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll bet the usual - $1 Pitfall was the quickest (2 weeks). I think it was the High Score Club cart of the week when I first started the original thread last year. Although Jr. Pac-man was officially released this summer, it had minutes logged for it earlier. It first appeared during Week 14 of Year #2 (Week 25 overall).

Yeah, I worded that wrong...it should have read something to the effect of fastest to reach 1000 minutes from the title's release date...i.e. Jr. Pac would have reached 1000 minutes only 60 days after its release So, it sounds like a record, yes?
