Happy New Year!

[Skippy B. Coyote]

No classic gaming time for me this week, I still haven't made the time to get back to the Atari 2600 High Score Club, but I did play quite a bit more Ōkami HD on the Switch for the modern tracker!

I love INTV pinball.  Here are some tips I wrote when we played it in the HSC a few months ago.  It should play great on the Evercade. 

 

FYI - I think you bumped it over 1k mins!

[+jgkspsx]

I love it too. It’s really a remarkable achievement for the era and it still plays very well.

[Atarian7]

carlsson, are you busy getting all the yearly stats ready?        

I don't notice a 2023 tracker yet so you must be busy.  Take your time. 

 

 

 

[carlsson]

I have been toying with starting the new topic before I have finished this one, mainly so people posting early have a place to go. Perhaps later, or tomorrow.

[carlsson]

Here's the summary for Week 52, running from December 26 - January 1. We logged 4092 minutes of eligible play, playing 78 games on a total of 24 systems.

 

Top 10:

 

1. Solar Fox (Atari 2600) - 382 min. (#2)
2. Mine, The (TI-99/4A) - 379 min.
2. Out Zone (Arcade) - 379 min.
4. Final Fantasy III (VI) (SNES) - 342 min. (#1)
5. Gobli's Adventure [RPG Maker demo game] (PlayStation) - 331 min.
6. Conquest of Mars (Atari 2600) - 127 min.
7. Survivor [Synapse Software] (Atari 8-bit) - 122 min.
8. Blodia (Game Boy) - 117 min.
9. Mr. Yo Yo (Atari 2600) - 98 min.
10. Incredible Crisis (PlayStation) - 97 min.

 

Pre-NES top 10:

 

1. Solar Fox (Atari 2600) - 382 min. (PN#1)
2. Mine, The (TI-99/4A) - 379 min.
3. Conquest of Mars (Atari 2600) - 127 min. (PN#5)
4. Survivor [Synapse Software] (Atari 8-bit) - 122 min.
5. Mr. Yo Yo (Atari 2600) - 98 min. (PN#8)
6. Pinball (Intellivision) - 90 min.
7. Food Fight (Atari 8-bit) - 75 min.
8. M.U.L.E. (Atari 8-bit) - 67 min.
9. Astrosmash (Intellivision) - 65 min.
10. H.E.R.O. (Odyssey^2) - 57 min.
 

Top 10 systems:

 

1. Atari 2600 - 711 min. (#3)
2. Arcade - 554 min. (#4)
3. PlayStation - 428 min.
4. TI-99/4A - 379 min.
5. SNES - 342 min. (#1)
6. Atari 8-bit - 317 min.
7. NES/Famicom - 274 min. (#2)
8. Game Boy - 246 min. (#8)
9. Intellivision - 155 min.
10. Atari 7800 - 130 min.

 

The year ends with a close battle between Solar Fox, The Mine and Out Zone, which all are within 3 minutes. In the end, it is the evergreen 2600 game which claims a triple including the systems list. Within the 24 different systems, we had a whopping 6 different Ataris (2600, 8-bit, 7800, Jaguar, Lynx and ST) and our 7th new system this year in form of the Forth based Jupiter Ace!

 

Contrary to popular belief, no game entered the 1000, 5000 or 10000 minute clubs this week. Out Zone (Arcade) at 914 min and Pinball (Intellivision) at 911 min were close.

 

Thanks for another year. I will compile the usual end of season stats later this week, and will create a new topic very soon for the 2023 season.

Top games of all time (1000 minutes or more)

 

This lists grows longer for each year, another 40 entries this year! The top 10 remains almost the same, except for the entry of Pokemon Red Version, which means all the top 10 games now each have 10000+ minutes of playing! I haven't made any automated scripts to generate the comparison ratings, so I only bothered doing it for the top 50.

All-time totals by system

 

Seven new systems this year brings the total to 133 after some duplicates were consolidated. The system names seen in the list are the labels I'm using in Excel, so if you want to make my life even easier, consider using the same system names (and like some people already do, sort the systems alphabetically though that is not strictly required).

Great stats Carllson.  Thank you for doing this every week and every year.  I look forward to Tuesdays every week and I look forward to the year end all time stats.  

 

I am surprised to see 133 retro systems.  I have not played 128 of them.  I have not heard of 126 of those systems.  It highlights how huge the retro gaming world is. How do you know so much about so many systems?

 

I am also surprised after so many years of tracking, only 98 Atari 2600 games have broken the 1000 minute mark.  That leaves over 340 non homebrew 2600 games not making the list.  Alot of those 340 are really good.

 

Looking forward to another great year of stats.  AGB

There are 24 I don’t know. The highest ranked one I don’t know is the “BBS Door Games”. I assume those are MUD type games? The next highest one I don’t know is the VG 5000. The lowest ranked one I know is the PDP-1.

 

I have played 51 of them, at least in emulation but most in real life.

 

The lowest ranked one I have played was #97, Pong. I am surprised that none of the Magnavox pong consoles are on here, unless that includes all of them. 
 

The highest ranked one I have never played is the TI 99/4A. Funnily enough I have the chess cartridge for it sitting on the table in the next room… 

 

The next highest ranked is the Colecovision.

Teki Paki - 20 minutes

Not entirely sure how this works but it’s fun.

My Ultimate Guide^TM for Playing Teki-Paki, copy/pasted from shmups forum. In the time since I wrote this, I have gotten better, as well, so yeah.

 

So basically Teki-Paki is a modified ultra-high-speed ultra-high-tension Columns with explosives because it's Toaplan, but unlike Columns, you kind of have to actually practice the game a little bit to learn how to play it properly or you'll get completely destroyed by it... which I'm sure you noticed. Since you just have to connect 5 blocks, no matter the shape, you can basically put stuff wherever you want it in most situations as long as it's touching something of the same color. You could say that the game actually gives you a ridiculous amount of freedom compared to something like Columns once you figure out how to take advantage of how the game works.

Blocks will get culled by the game at the top of the screen if they get placed on a column that is already at the top of the screen. You can actually abuse the shit out of this to keep yourself alive a hell of a lot longer than if you don't. Basically you have to try to only drop what you need in that situation, and also take advantage of the diagonal connections if you are forced to drop something that you don't want. You can actually spin stuff and move it around a little even after it lands in most situations, and you can abuse this as well.

Like I mentioned earlier, you'll often be in situations where it looks completely hopeless, but the game tends to give you exactly what you need to save yourself in those situations for some reason, so if you play well (which basically just means don't panic when you think you're totally fucked, because there is a chance that you are actually not and just need to buy some time so the game gives you what you need), you have a decent chance of surviving pretty much everything if you stack your blocks correctly. If you have all but one of the columns filled, you can prolong your life by only dropping one block at a time to see if you can survive long enough to get what you need.

As I'm sure you are aware, the game will occasionally speed up by a shitload. When the game decides that it wants to be fast as fuck, you don't have a whole lot of control over where stuff falls. When I first saw this I thought I was completely screwed, but after some practice, I realized that sometimes the only thing you can really do is to let the game do what it wants, but you should still try to rotate stuff to make it fit into your plan as much as you can. Basically you can't do much but stay calm and try to do what you can when the game speeds up like that.

Random observation: Smiley blocks seem to often come in pairs for whatever reason, one after the other, which is helpful in a lot of situations. Drop those on your bombs if you can, as they can function as bombs if you place them correctly.

For scoring, there really isn't a lot to say other than to try to detonate as many bombs as possible and try to destroy as many blocks as possible simultaneously, but intentionally making blocks fall fast by holding down gives you points, so try to do that whenever you can. Clearing silver and gold blocks actually gives way more points than clearing the other colors as well, so you should definitely try to destroy as many silver and gold blocks as possible.

Teki-Paki is really weird because of how intense it is for a puzzle game because of its ridiculous speed, but when you figure out how to play it properly, it's a lot of fun.

That is exactly how it works. We used to have every Pong type system separately with 1-2 entries each, before I combined them so model name becomes game name.

Now I'm curious which 7 systems you have heard of. Atari 2600, PlayStation obviously. Probably NES, Genesis, likely Atari 5200 and 7800. Older Windows PC as a gaming platform? That would leave out every retro computer from 1975 to 1993, and a lot of consoles too.

 

Personally I like diversity though many of the additions on the list are community efforts which I also have very vague visions of.

[agb]

The systems I played are Atari 2600, NES, PlayStation, Arcade games and intellivsion using a ps one. I have heard but never played the Genesis, 5200 and 7800. I’ve played ps two and psp. I know nothing about computer games at all. It could be my age. 
 

in my house, my two boys have every modern system made by PlayStation and Nintendo but being an Atari 2600 player, I have no interest past ps two.
