I'll take my chances at that over scoring more than one goal in Soccer. I'm going to play like one game of Soccer a day, just to mix things up, but it'll mostly be a week of Golf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't have much trouble at all on defense, I'm just lucky if I can score more than once. Tennis is easier, but it's tedious even if you win all 12 games in a row.

the_wizard_666 | 1,333 Posted November 29, 2021 Share Posted November 29, 2021 Not gonna lie, I'm probably not even gonna play Tennis. If the only way to score is to play perfectly, there's no way I'm gonna get a score anyway. Gonna have to play the shit out of Golf and maybe get a couple points out of soccer.

You can compensate for the 2 points in Tennis with a good goal lead in Soccer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Honestly, I suck at Soccer too. I'm gonna be relying heavily on Golf, as it's the only game I'm remotely decent at...although I still suck at it 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mega Tank | 1,098 Posted November 29, 2021 Share Posted November 29, 2021 129,400 Happy with the game choice as I had never heard of it and it was a nice change of pace from the NES library. I wish I could have put up a better score. I find it sad I didn't even beat that many levels, but I was far too inconsistent to get anything going. I think I needed to better time the "slow" balloons and prioritize the faster moving ones, I'm not sure. Maybe I was too hard on myself trying to get every level "perfect" and resetting so frequently just made it worse rather than trying to play it out. I really did want to put up a better score. Good luck @Dr. Morbis in the next round. You're a video game ass kicking machine topping the 1 Million mark. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know if you are aware, but you need to get some secret power ups to be able to even compete in the Famicom version. I spent like 30 minutes trying to get the unlimited meat power up the first time, and that changes the game completely. Anyway, thanks for participating in the tourney 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyway, thanks for participating in the tourney I'll second that. @Mega Tank, that's a pretty respectable score, comparable to my best runs...although I also didn't know about the power ups and stuff. They're definitely a game changer. Without using them, your score is pretty damn solid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will adjust the top 8 post with that info once we have the top 8 formed. Are you re-seeding highest seeds vs lowest seeds or keeping the original bracket?

Thanks I been grindin out, didnt do super great on the whole but it might not be too bad a score. I literally just acheived this like less than 5 minutes ago and it was my best. I didn't come close to beating it really (but got farther than this on lesser runs). This game's a point feast! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
