Lauren Tyler Posted October 2, 2006 Share Posted October 2, 2006 It's kind of funny, I actually play Agent 17 on the VideolandMUSH, because when I thought about apping him, I wanted to think of someone who wasn't as well known as, say, Mario, Sonic, Cloud, and those types of characters. First score for now. I wish I could open up my NES and fix the damn connectors so I could play on real hardware. Or wait for my Yobo FC to come. (Yeah I've heard the bad reports about it, I don't care, as long as it plays majority of my games, it's all that matters!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MetalSlime23 Posted October 2, 2006 Share Posted October 2, 2006 I got 16,600. I'm gonna keep playing though! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
uosipa llamxew Posted October 3, 2006 Share Posted October 3, 2006 Had to stop after a couple of games because the music was grating my nerves! I don't have a camera handy tonight, so this one is by my word: Stage 3 - 21500 Here is a text copy of the manual that gives point values, etc. As always, if someone has the manual and wouldn't mind scanning it, I would be forever grateful. Cheers! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+remowilliams Posted October 3, 2006 Share Posted October 3, 2006 II wish I could open up my NES and fix the damn connectors so I could play on real hardware. Or wait for my Yobo FC to come. (Yeah I've heard the bad reports about it, I don't care, as long as it plays majority of my games, it's all that matters!) Not to go OT, but my Yobo, NEX and RetroCon all play a flawless Elevator Action. I love this game, maybe I'll get the time for a HS entry Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jpfalcon2003 Posted October 3, 2006 Share Posted October 3, 2006 25,950 A hard MFG Oh it's not that bad. This was one of my most favorite games growing up. I haven't played that one in awaile, but I remember having a pretty decent score. Still have the system and the game, so the curiosity may have me playing it to see what i can do again.

figgler Posted October 4, 2006 Share Posted October 4, 2006 And so, it turns out I do have this game on a mulit cart called Golden 250. I wasn't willing to dowload the illegal ROM to play, but I will play the pirated cartridge. Figure that one out So, my score so far is paltry. I had trouble taking a pic because the autoplay overwrites the score for some reason, so there is only a small window of opportunity there. I need to read the manual too, because I have no idea what's going on at all. A criminal stealing packages or soemthing? Score; 8800 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

figgler Posted October 5, 2006 Share Posted October 5, 2006 This game is HARD. And CRAPPY. I find I am not liking the controls at all and evertyhing is so random, that I find it frustrating. Plus I suck. I can't seem to ever nab a screen shot either, since it changes so quickly. So far the best I can do is 9250 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
