  1. Yes, of course, that's what originally started it. But there was only one person constantly going on and on every single week it seemed. That person has been banned. later -1
  2. Major update on the court case: https://arstechnica.com/gaming/2020/10/billy-mitchells-donkey-kong-high-score-case-will-move-forward-to-trial/ A Los Angeles County judge has ruled that Billy Mitchell has met the "minimal merit" standard necessary to move forward to trial in his defamation case against the high-score adjudicators at the Twin Galaxies organization. But the ruling doesn't specifically weigh in on the conflicting evidence presented so far, and it suggests that both sides have some chance of prevailing at trial. later -1
  3. I have a question. I'm a hardcore music collector, i buy tons of records and cds, from groups i like. I don't care if i have 10 copies of something, i end up buying newer versions just to collect. I don't even listen to most of the records, or cds, since i have the digital files. are you a collector, or do you actually play everything you own. would it bother you, if you missed one of the myarcade releases, or tiny arcade or arcade classics. i only buy the ones i like, and actually play them. if you collect them, it doesn't matter if they release pac-man 10 times.... like the tiny arcades hello kitty pac-man, i would still buy it. what difference does it make if you have all of them or not. it just separates people that collect, from people that use what they buy. later -1
  4. I didn't see anyone jumping up and down for Akka Arrh. That was my holy grail. So when it came out, i might have been the only person on the planet that was happy to see and play it. I'm still playing it even now, (with the high score on MARP), and going through all the levels. http://replay.marpirc.net/r/akkaarrh http://replay.marpirc.net/shots/gif/128/akkaarrh.gif Akka Arrh (prototype) (akkaarrh) negative1 (@) 02 Mar 20 07:42:47 113,980 (edit) wolf212 get MAME Now its just as forgotten, as it was before. I also discovered Maze Invaders (which has been out for awhile) on atari flashback volume 3, and now its one of my new favorites. IF marble madness 2 ever comes out, people will play it for about 1 week, be all happy, then forget it ever existed. and go back to complaining about something else not coming out. later -1
  5. I only remember one person that was predicting it was coming out, and they've been banned. Sure, at the beginning it seemed likely with some news. But as time went by, it became obvious that it wouldn't be. Some people kept hoping, But most were realistic about it. Sure I'd like to see it come out, but if it doesn't, I already pointed out alternatives, and have moved on. Nobody else in their right mind expects it to come out. later -1

  7. Thanks but that didn't clear up anything. Basically you said everything we already knew. later -1
  8. that would be better suited under the arcade 1up, or start a pinball thread. that said ATgames might work on a 'pinball' mini tabletop, so we'll see. later -1
  9. And people will try to hack it. But without action buttons, it won't be very useful. later -1
  10. Because the vast majority of people don't know, and don't care. Its good enough. For someone, that actually plays the games, they know. Mine is getting delivered 2 days early. So its coming in today. Will write a review, once I get it. later -1
  11. I don't know what emulator you use to get malware. I've been using them since the 90's and have never had an issue. Streaming isn't any more convenient. You can find emulator on any pc, tablet and mobile device. later -1
  12. Yes, you should be worried. They don't make too many, and street fighter is very popular. I've been looking for a centipede one, and they are $300 and up now. oh well. later -1

  14. Not defending nintendo, but they've been a toy company since 1965, and into videogames since 1975, so it's not like they're newcomers. later -1
  15. If i ever find one at a reasonable cost, (not $500 or $1000), i will buy one out and try it. I doubt I could last the 4-5 hours it takes to max it out, like the real game. I have done that several times this week on the arcade 1up, and several of the xbox 360 versions. If i could last longer than 5 minutes on it, i would be amazed. later -1
  16. I think you proved my my point. I should have said, I don't have miniature hands. If I was a child i guess it would be fine. But i doubt i could barely put a finger on the trackball. For tempest, they included a larger spinner, because the normal one was too tiny. later -1
  17. Maybe people will get the damaged Asteroids, and use that as practice to restore it back to normal for fun. These machines are not for playing with. They are for collectors that only want them for looks, and put them on a shelf. The miniature size and controls makes it impossible to play properly. That said, someone did manage to get the killscreen on pac-man. I'm sure their hands were damaged from all the cramping that would occur. later -1
  18. I'm sorry, but the overhaul version looks terrible, with the blue moulding, and the cigarette burns. Like i would want a crappy looking version for that much money. No thanks. I'll stick with the arcade 1ups and their terrible controls (which can be replaced), looking forward to the asteroids partycade. later -1

  23. That actually doesn't bother me, because there's always someone on amazon or ebay, that sells the whole collection, and it will be a lot easier to just get single ones, or all of them that way. later -1
