Arcade Game Challenge #50: The Super Happy Gold Edition!
 

In these threads we play arcade games that are emulated on PCs, and compete for the highest score.
You have to take care of finding the games yourself.
Click here for the list of all the past winners and high scores.


The Rules:

1. To enter, you just play one of the games and post a screenshot with your score.
2. Once all the games have a score, the deadline to post any new scores will be 72 hours after the last screenshot is posted.
3. The winner can pick any game that we haven't already played for the next thread. Don't forget to pick a new game, or I'll do it for you!
4. Any games should be played with one credit and no continues or any features not on the actual machine.
5. If you play and beat any of the high scores from the previous games we've played, you can submit them for the All Time Top Scores.

I actually requested Motos, Legend Of Kage was ~~PAL~~'s choice.

I'm sure I won't be able to compete in 1943, so I better get my shots in now

granted this is my first try and I have the end of the baseball game on in the background.

Just throwing it out there..

You made it past level 1? :eek: You already got me beat.

So, since this is the 50th one and it's been over a year, I was wondering if anybody would be interested in wiping the slate clean on the next one and letting people pick games we've played before. I'd just start a new high score list and keep the old one on a seperate page.

I would keep the all-time top score list too, it just doesn't really get any kind of competition going.

Did you ever even bother posting my high score? :)

No matter:

And to get this one started:

I forgot how stupid the butterfly level was on the game:

Yes I did, it just wasn't there long enough for you to see it. :p
For some reason I didn't get an email about this thread all day until just now :shrug:

and you put the 72 hour rule into effect. Just pointing it out since nobody's picked games, even though I'm sure it's not going to be over by Sunday night.

Yeah, I know Ustimias is going to beat my Motos score since he picked the game. So I'll hold off until then :)

Haha, we'll see. This challenge was a bit of a realization: pick games I know I'm good at.

If this holds, I choose Uo Poko.

Also, not to nag, but bigsoos is incorrectly listed on the website as the winner for Super Burger Time.

Maybe I should make you run this next time. Apparently I'm burned out.

Interesting. You died at almost the exact spot I did and your round 5 time was basically exactly the same as mine. Looks like you're hitting more cans in a row than I am.

I'll stick with your Super Volleyball....

and take 1945.

~~PAL~~, is your official score 268400 or the 337070 one? Tough either way..

Ooh! Ooh! I can answer that one! It's 268400. That screenshot is from the end of that game. I assume the other score was before this thread started. Those get posted every once in a while.

I'm still trying to come up with games if by some twist of fate my score holds up. I was going to pick Noah's Ark (my Chuck E Cheese had a box in '84 and I haven't played it since) but apparently it's completely unemulated so far. I'm open to suggestions I suppose.
