VectorGamer Posted August 22, 2010 Share Posted August 22, 2010 (edited) Pleiades In this multi-wave space shooter, enemy ships come at you in scrolling waves. Growing bird-like ships swoop down at the player's ship as more enemy ships spring forth from the mothership. During the final wave, the player must navigate around parked ships to hit landing pad right on.

ClassicGMR Posted August 22, 2010 Share Posted August 22, 2010 (edited) It should be noted that if the game you just ended is the high score it WON'T update the "Hi-Score" field in the middle until you start the NEXT game. I noticed this today when I tried it on MAME 137. Just in case there's any discrepancies with screenshots...

HatefulGravey Posted August 27, 2010 Share Posted August 27, 2010 The rom on my machine for this game says the colors aren't perfect. This is only noticable in the score area. It is barely clear enough to read on the monitor in my machine. The reason I say this is the screen shots here look fine and I normally get pretty good quality from my monitor in the machine. Is there a new rom or something that fixes this. I have not posted a score because I would like to post a pic, but you can't really read the score in the pic either...

Pictures are not required. I play many of the games on my MAME cabs and if my camera phone isn't handy I don't go out of my way to take a pic unless the score has some significance...
