SCOREBOARD:

1. 173,900 (Yoshi) +11
2. 122,800 (mbd39) +10

I'm showing my age, but I used to play the arcade game when I was a kid. It was at a local store, back when arcade machines were practically everywhere.

Never played any home console port of it. This should be fun!


 

122,800

Won't be able to participate this year, but I will keep the threads sticked at least.

Thanks!

Has anyone else given it a try yet?  
 

Is this a game that needs a light gun?

No. You use the gamepad.

About 24 hours left.

173,900
90,400



 

Nice pick Red! It's been a hectic week for me, but I'll try a few more times tonight.

Score updated: 173,900

Fuck man. I had a score of 178k that I didn't bother posting. And now it's too late.
 

Dang, thats a great score! What round were you in? I managed to get to round 6 with this score. This was my last effort, I had a good streak going and had a few stupid deaths. Those blue guys pulling out their bags of money got me a few times.

 

It could have been round 5 or 6. I don't remember. When I die it's usually from pressing the wrong button in the heat of the moment.

This game is extremely shallow and repetitive but fun. It's a shame that there wasn't more participation.
