classicgamer_27330 Posted April 3, 2016 Share Posted April 3, 2016 Since this is the premiere season of the handheld contest, I thought I'd call the round a pilot, just like in TV, you sell a pilot to see if your show is picked up. Rules:No cheating, save states, codes, passwords, game geine etc. For this game, the only free man you are allowed to get is by getting 100 coins, go in the bottom door at the end of each level. Your game ends at the game over screen or when you beat the game. Scoring System: Depending on how many people join in for this week will determine how I'll score. For example if there are 10 different posters who post a score, then 1st will get 10, 2nd 9, and so on. Bonus: Post the name of an unsold game show pilot. +1 This round won't count towards the final standings Deadline 4/11/2016 12:00 PM 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
S.BAZ Posted April 3, 2016 Share Posted April 3, 2016 cool question -- "unsold" does that mean it may have aired but never released as a movie on VHS or what-not? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
classicgamer_27330 Posted April 4, 2016 Author Share Posted April 4, 2016 Unsold television pilots are pilots developed by a company that is unable to sell it to a network for showing. Youtube is full of them, but remember I said "game show" so an example of this would be The $10,000 Dollar Sweep, 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

S.BAZ Posted April 7, 2016 Share Posted April 7, 2016 198,000 I had a little over that with 8 extra lives, but walked into a telephone pole & crashed my game boy. actually only 3 of those extras were legit for this entry so I'd planned to stop when it dropped to 4. I got an accidental 3up at world 2 auto bonus & accidentally collected heart 1ups twice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
S.BAZ Posted April 7, 2016 Share Posted April 7, 2016 for the bonus: Top Secret 1988 picked this one just for the fact it bears the same name as the wacky Val Kilmer debut. well, sans the exclamation point of course. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
