+Gemintronic Posted April 1, 2013 Share Posted April 1, 2013 How many here actually own this glorious machine? Or, are emulators accepted? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Algus Posted April 1, 2013 Share Posted April 1, 2013 This one might be a toughie for me as my computer is a Chromebook. If I can find a Linux emu, I might be able to get it running in Ubuntu but my Ubuntu install is pretty buggy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darthkur Posted April 1, 2013 Share Posted April 1, 2013 120,790 Would have been better but for some unknown reason movement to the right tends to hang a bit. Doesn't make sense. The controller is fine. Played it with a couple games in MAME and it works flawlessly. How many here actually own this glorious machine? Or, are emulators accepted? I should have a complete system if it wasn't for an enormously stupid decision on my part last month. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jblenkle Posted April 19, 2013 Share Posted April 19, 2013 Makes a big difference which weapon you use for each level... You beat one of my old scores, congrats! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
roadrunner Posted April 19, 2013 Author Share Posted April 19, 2013 Makes a big difference which weapon you use for each level... I like to use Multi Shot for stage 1, Horming Fire for stage 2, and Wide Vulcan for stage 3. Not sure if that's the best weapons to use for those levels but it works good for me.

jblenkle Posted April 19, 2013 Share Posted April 19, 2013 I had been starting off using Wide Vulcan for 1 and then just kind of randomly selecting...got my big score, however, when I used Homing on 2 and Wide Vulcan on 3...don't remember what I used on 1. Level 1 doesn't need a whole lot of fire power... I like to use Multi Shot for stage 1, Horming Fire for stage 2, and Wide Vulcan for stage 3. Not sure if that's the best weapons to use for those levels but it works good for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, it did start out as a Gameboy/Gameboy Advanced HSC. I'm giving this HSC a break now but if anyone has any game suggestions i'll start this up again next month.
