StanJr Posted May 3, 2014 Share Posted May 3, 2014 I'll open with a paltry 67700 (but that's also 2 pair) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CapitanClassic Posted May 3, 2014 Share Posted May 3, 2014 (edited) Are we allowed to farm points on the easier levels? If you learn the patterns, you can get to the Aliens well under 40,000. (I just died on the 2nd Alien level with 43,850). I don't like this version of the game. The Atari 800 version is what I am used to. This one doesn't allow you to throw more than 2 glasses at a time, but if you press the button it queues one up if you don't move to a different bar. The throw count also seems affected by glasses on a return trip from customers.Attempts (don't count because it's Friday):1. 19,8252. 29,8003. 33,6004. 36,6755. 37,3756. 43,8507. 29,2258. 26,6259. 31,900 Edited May 4, 2014 by CapitanClassic Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LidLikesIntellivision Posted May 3, 2014 Share Posted May 3, 2014 I never played any version of this game ever. First attempt, and I don't get it at all yet: 16,625. Not counting when I tested all roms, I'm new to Tapper too. I've always heard about the game and now I'm finally playing it. Very addicting game. 58,775 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

S.BAZ Posted May 4, 2014 Share Posted May 4, 2014 21975 28075 34400 35250 39700 what a fun game! I never played Tapper either (except the mini game in Back to the Future, NES) until a few weeks ago on the N64 & found out why people like it. Tapper is easier for me to get into resetting repeatedly & playing lots of games at it. I always feel like I can do better on my next game. at first I was disgruntled about the throwing response, but getting used to it now I like it. I can see how it is a decent take on the way the arcade version works, which is what N64 has. Tapper has been bumped way up on my cartridge wish-list! my 1st time making it to the aliens' dive now I just wonder where is that triple-breasted Total Recall mama?? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
karokoenig Posted May 4, 2014 Share Posted May 4, 2014 Well, I still can't get myself to like this game for some reason. But I did achieve a pathetic improvement in score. Guess I should change career from tapper to card shark: 22,225 All in. Four of a kind, baby!!! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jason_Atari Posted May 4, 2014 Share Posted May 4, 2014 Sorry, will play again, how do you change difficulty switches in stella? Thanks Never mind, worked it out, have no choice but to play it on stella as this game was a NTSC release only, would prefer playing it on my console 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oyamafamily Posted May 4, 2014 Share Posted May 4, 2014 (edited) Sorry, will play again, how do you change difficulty switches in stella? Thanks On Stella: F5 key - Left Difficulty A/PRO F6 key - Left Difficulty B/Novice F7 key - Right Difficulty A/PRO F8 key - Right Difficulty B/Novice Note that B/Novice is the DEFAULT position of Difficulty Switches when you open the cartridge on Stella.

Botbird208 Posted May 4, 2014 Share Posted May 4, 2014 Tips? I dont want it to be one of the weeks in which I cant get past my score no matter how hard I try. So far, that has been the case today. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
