zylon Posted August 20, 2010 Share Posted August 20, 2010 This is a tough one to get a score pic from unless you're using some sort of emulator and a capture program. The alternatives are recording your game and rewinding to get a screen shot or starting a second game and be quick with the camera after the first boss. That's what I did. I didn't think about score shots when nominating this game, I just loved playing it. 308,550 Use button 2 to reposition your option fighters. I like to use them in front to absorb some extra hits.

Sonic R Posted August 21, 2010 Share Posted August 21, 2010 played a quick game… I need to polish up as it's been a while since I played 784,400 yeah, it is indeed difficult to get a picture with the score! sorry for blurry picture, there isn't much time and I just played the first stage again to get this pic… Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zylon Posted August 22, 2010 Share Posted August 22, 2010 Got 630,800. I'm going to record all further playing of this one. It'll make it easier. Congrats on the 5200 4ks! What did you get to play on it? I kind of have a love/hate relationship with mine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I haven't gettten to play it yet. And unfortunately, I probably won't for about 12 days since the seller forgot to ship it yesterday and I'm going on a 4-1/2 day trip next sunday.

Sonic R Posted August 22, 2010 Share Posted August 22, 2010 I got 200,000 bonus points on the first level. the bonus comes from successfully shooting down all enemies, and not getting hit, on the sections where it zooms in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've gotten that on the second one. First one still gets me at least once. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
roadrunner Posted August 24, 2010 Share Posted August 24, 2010 I tryed out the C64 version of Scramble Spirits, and the points are alot lower on that version. I only got 10,000 points for a perfect run on the part of the game where it zooms in on the first level. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most of the Sega games didn't port over well to C64. There are a few exceptions. If I remember, the 2 player co-op mode of this game was very good on the SMS.

zylon Posted August 24, 2010 Share Posted August 24, 2010 As long as the controllers work! That's probably the #1 weakpoint of the system. I don't have much in the way of extras on these, but I do have some parts and pieces. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't have much in the way of extras on these, but I do have some parts and pieces. I'm getting one working controller and two controllers that work but are both missing parts (I can make a second working controller out of these two).

Sonic R Posted August 25, 2010 Share Posted August 25, 2010 I casually enjoy playing Scramble Spirits, but playing for score is pure frustration… your points do not tabulate UNTIL you defeat the end stage boss - so if your game ends mid level - you will NOT receive any points for that stage… the side challenge is rather daunting -as a 1CC is a tough task but I cannot imagine a 1LC… with the point blanking, shots from behind, and the flicker causing for untimely deaths… I need to take a break as I've built up much frustrations this evening… Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
4Ks Posted August 29, 2010 Author Share Posted August 29, 2010 Ok, with less than a week to go, I've changed the side challenge. Now you have to reach one millions points to get the +2. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
