karokoenig Posted February 22, 2018 Share Posted February 22, 2018 Space Chase: 18,625. I started up Space Jockey again, but after 7 or 8 k decided that I'm comfy with my 60k score and the 3 bonus points :-) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RJ Posted February 23, 2018 Share Posted February 23, 2018 Ok so I'm to understand to keep up with the Jonses this week, I need to get 80K with 6 lives showing/remanining? So this post doesnt help me? I must be the oldest competitor this week, or at least have the worst reaction time. I don't understand how you guys make it look so easy, I find it very challenging. & the guy who wanted to let his kid take over, that made my blood boil even more. I hope I don't ruin a controller over this, I threw it plenty of times earlier today Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope I don't ruin a controller over this, I threw it plenty of times earlier today I was having troubles with it as well until I started only killing the ground unit and the one above it. If you get bored, you can start killing the middle unit or even top, but much larger chance of dying. Also there's a safe zone between the middle unit and the lowest flying unit (not the ground) for when you want to take photos. My photo has my ship sitting in that zone. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sneakyturtleegg Posted February 23, 2018 Share Posted February 23, 2018 Boy this was boring. I probably would have scored higher and had 6 ships left, but I accidentally reset the game. I pushed start on my SNES controller thinking I was going to pause the game. Instead it rest the game. Oops. I am playing on an Analogue NT Mini. I ended up playing a second game to get 20,900 with 6 ships. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RJ Posted February 23, 2018 Share Posted February 23, 2018 (edited) Yeah found the safe spot. Guess I needed a bit more time with the game. Got this score & mustve bumped the 7800, froze the game, & got this screen color. I will make this my final, I really dont want to torture myself anymore. Not like I have a chance to win anyway.

I hope I don't ruin a controller over this, I threw it plenty of times earlier today I was only kidding, I would never subject my son to Space Jockey. Child abuse is wrong in all forms. And don't worry about winning, NO ONE wins where Space Jockey is concerned. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+Nathan Strum Posted February 23, 2018 Share Posted February 23, 2018 And don't worry about winning, NO ONE wins where Space Jockey is concerned. Depends on how you look at it. Air Raid was based on Space Jockey's code... so if you run across a copy of that somewhere, you could be a winner indeed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
S.BAZ Posted February 23, 2018 Share Posted February 23, 2018 (edited) Really? The one that says "Video Game - Time Race" and the number "SS-001" on the label? That's the Suntek version, and it's supposed to be PAL. How did that end up across the pond? yeah, I got it in a pack of PAL and pirate games from a guy in Israel (or wait, was it Lebanon? somewhere) who was selling games here at AtariAge. Time Race for some reason works on my 4-switch woodgrain but only if I use a CRT TV. I totally agree with you about the fun of all these wacky carts! Here are a few of my favorites: Mr. T is not Saboteur but Fast Eddie River Raid II isn't any of the RR II's I heard of -- it's a MASH hack with submarines and that's artwork for Q*bert?? LOL! I'm also fond of the artwork for this RR II - it looks like something I would have drawn at like age 10 Another example of PAL silliness: Lilly Adventure won't play on the CRT and looks offset and horrible when I play it in the 7800 and LED, but in the 4-switch and LED... It works fine! [edit] another funny thing: Donkey Kong and Pac-Kong both have the same artwork -- which is clearly made for Mr. Do!'s Castle!

karokoenig Posted February 23, 2018 Share Posted February 23, 2018 Time Race for some reason works on my 4-switch woodgrain but only if I use a CRT TV. This leads me to suspect that all the Time Race versions have never been converted from NTSC at all. NTSC games do run on PAL systems, albeit slower and with another colour scheme. It's the other way around that causes problems with vertical hold etc. It could be that they just didn't bother. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sneakyturtleegg Posted February 24, 2018 Share Posted February 24, 2018 (edited) Does my score of 244,915 not count as the high score for Space Jockey? (As of this post) Edited February 24, 2018 by Sneakyturtleegg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

karokoenig Posted February 24, 2018 Share Posted February 24, 2018 @ Vocelli: My name is listed twice in the Spacechase list. Once with my actual score of 18k, and once with 4,475. That must belong to someone else. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scrabbler15 Posted February 24, 2018 Share Posted February 24, 2018 Space Jockey - 20,000 and six lives Spacechase - 9050 I had Gamerguy take the 20,000 picture. He didn't have too go far, since I'm set up in his bedroom, right now. . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
