MrFlutterPie: That's the attitude to have!

acomicbookguyc: Did you start Rocket this year? I remember you mentioning that you played it a bit sometime late last year and just want to be sure that no one is getting headstarts.

doner24: Nice snag on THPS, I was planning on going for those but it's all good because I did THPS and THPS 2 last year. Maybe I'll try to take THPS3 from you this year

cyan_phoenix: Good luck dude, that's a tough one. Though I rented it once, I have never passed it but read about it when I first bought it and it sounds like you really need to conserve ammo late in the game if you want to survive, not easy but worth 2 points and nice bragging rights for sure.

retrogames12: It's okay to announce what game you are playing but you can't reserve a spot, so you better beat it quick in case someone else wants it!

No, you only have to beat Ganon and that will count.

Would you possibly be able to convince her to create an account to join in? I could mark your name down for Pokemon Puzzle League and once she joins transfer the point over to her.

I'll have her make one maybe. On a different note how do we consider hey you Pikachu done. Unless I'm remembering wrong I don't recall any end credits in it. Maybe I'm wrong

A quick question on the baseball games. Do you need to play every game in a season or can you auto-play some and still beat the world series? 162 games in a season is long time playing.

dialupgamer: I'm pretty sure you can complete all the missions and get a pseudo-ending, then after that continue on as long as you want (like Harvest Moon 64). I am going to consult a friend of mine tomorrow and ask him, he's a freak about anything Pokemon and I think he will know.

Aestivalis: Hmm, that's a good question. Seems like it's sort of fudging it by auto-playing but it's going to take a long ass time otherwise. We may need to consult the other contributors on this one.

I would think that if auto play is built into the game (not an emulator tool like a savestate) than you should be able to use it. It wouldn't be there if you were not meant to use it.

Just completed Disney's Tarzan on hard. First and last time I ever play that game. I have a couple more days off and will try to take down a few more quick simple games.

Yeah, decent point. My vote is that you can use autoplay in non-World Series games but you still have to play a few legit.

So....Playing through Mario 64 I got to 64 stars and decided to try the old "backwards long jump up the infinite staircase" trick. Never really tried it before, but whaddya know, it worked! So I battled Bowser and rescued Peach. After the end credits I went back into my game and it picked up from my last save. I am still unable to ascend the staircase. Whether or not you register that as a completion is up to you but I will continue to play the game to the 70 starts required. I was just really pumped that I pulled that off. I did manage to grab a pic and a video to prove that I got up the stairs!

^Neat, I was gonna mention the stair trick but forgot - in this case, you have to complete the game legitimately to get the point (which I'm sure won't be too big a deal for you).

There's quite a few games including OoT that I'm working on but since I started them in 2012, they won't count. I'm still going to try and knock out some games because the N64 needs more love around here!

I played through Aerogauge again. It's a really short game. So knock that one off.

Flik is a hero. Played through A Bug's Life last night. Never played the game before, and it's not actually all that terrible. I grabbed it because it was the first 2-pointer on the list, and I figured I could knock it out. Wasn't that hard, though the seeds drove me nuts at times (no pun intended). My first contribution to any of these lists, and I hope to contribute far more to this N64 version.
