Gulkave Power Up Bar and RF Screen Capture?

[segagamer99]

Hey Everyone,

 

I am currently trying to research and write an article for Hardcore Gaming 101 about Gulkave for the SG-1000/ColecoVision. I have a question though. At the bottom of the screen, there is a long power-up bar with squares. The power-ups come in 1, 3, or 5. Collecting these moves you up that many squares. I am confused as to what happens when that power-up bar fills up and resets.

 

 

P.S. Is there anyway to take screen captures from an rf video game system? SG-1000 is RF only, and becuase it's so rare, I don't want to get it modded. Also, HG101 articles require lots of screenshots, so this is essential.

 

 

Any help would be appreciated.

Each square corresponds to a specific weapon, the first square is the weakest weapon, the last square is the strongest, and you have all kinds of weapons in between. The red square moves to the right when you collect the 1-3-5 icons, and it will cycle back to the first square if you keep collecting more and more icons.

 

I don't understand, I sold you a copy of Gulkave for SG-1000 which included the japanese manual, which contains lots of pictures which should have partially answered your question...

You can buy an USB capture box (receives composite A/V, RF, TV) and connect your SG-1000 and record the output in your PC for taking stills.

Or if you have AV out on your TV (a fair few do) then you can connect the capture device (EzyCap is good) to the TV output. That way what ever you connect up to the TV you can capture.

Or use a vcr (you know those things that take tapes, and record from the composite out
