CGQuarterly Posted June 28, 2013 Share Posted June 28, 2013 (edited) Welcome to round 9 of the 10th season of the Atari Age NES High Score League! I'm going back to 2-week rounds this season. This round we are going to play Batman. PRIZE ALERT From here on out, I am going to post a "prize pool" each week consisting of 3 prizes. That round's winner will get to choose from the three items, and a new item will be added. People are welcome to donate any Nintendo-related items to be used in the pool. Doing so will allow you to pick a game to be played. This round ends on Monday, July 15th, smart-asses.

jblenkle Posted June 28, 2013 Share Posted June 28, 2013 (edited) Eh???? This round ends on Monday, May 20th. Also, this game doesn't appear to give you a score... Edited June 28, 2013 by jblenkle Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
S.BAZ Posted June 28, 2013 Share Posted June 28, 2013 (edited) 166,000 i saw my score just before losing my last life, it was just above 166K I have a couple of questions -- 1. when you lose your last life, it immediately goes to the game over screen which does not display the score. I did not see how to get the score to display, other than getting the pic before dying! - ?? 2. this game does not give you a timer, so you can farm soldiers endlessly for an infinite score by going back & forth killing the same enemies repeatedly. I'm sure this is obviously not allowed, but I always relied on some "grinding" for hearts and/or weapons in order to survive a boss or something. but i know it is possible to make it through without any of that. (the Twin Galaxies leader has beat the Joker in 15min.) it would just take more memorizing I checked TG; they don't have any Batman score competition! found nothing elswhere either so far so... is farming allowed for hearts &/or weapons? or... is it no grinding whatsoever ? (to jblenkle --- you can hit select to pause & see your score) Edited June 28, 2013 by S.BAZ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jblenkle Posted June 29, 2013 Share Posted June 29, 2013 Thanks, I'll give that a try... (to jblenkle --- you can hit select to pause & see your score) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CGQuarterly Posted June 29, 2013 Author Share Posted June 29, 2013 Baz, I would say that it is OK to do what you have to do to stay alive and keep going through the game. So if you need to grind a bit to obtain some hearts or something then it's fine. When you're doing it for the points, thats when it isn't OK.

roadrunner Posted June 29, 2013 Share Posted June 29, 2013 It might take 'till 2014 until I get good at this game. I keep pressing start thinking it's pause. This game needs more checkpoints too. This games getting deleted once this rounds over. 35,200 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

S.BAZ Posted July 2, 2013 Share Posted July 2, 2013 174,600 usually getting farther so expecting 200K 1st boss: use the disk weapon it hits him twice & kills him fast 2nd boss: use the gun for the first two targets & fist for the 3rd kills it fast! 3rd boss: holy crap this guy smokes my ass Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bubufubu Posted January 7, 2015 Share Posted January 7, 2015 178,700 I don't know if defeating The Joker awards you any points, so I took the picture as close to the end as I could. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bubufubu Posted January 3, 2019 Share Posted January 3, 2019 328,200 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D5fGA6y7SUs Freeplay score update. The final score is viewable at the 31:00 mark. You receive 100,000 points for beating The Joker but the game makes you wait roughly 1:20 to start another game and see the evidence.
