Lost a few men early and was about to die, so I had some fun with the scoreboard.  Was just a tick of the clock away from having that 8 be a 9.

Well Done RdRunner, I was hoping to score in the 900 thousands but i couldnt get past the 4th floor on my last life. i tried playing last night but for some reason every game i played ended up in the 5 -6 hundred thousands and i couldnt top my last score. That looks like a before picture for a score roll did you roll the score or did that knife hit you??

It was really fun to get this game out and play for a while.  I remember spending entire Saturdays playing this when I was a kid.  Fast forward to today and I still hate that stupid magician!

Just an FYI, if you remove your pictures from the thread before the contest is over, your score will not count.  Your image is no longer attched to the post, so this score is now invalid until you repost the picture before the contest deadline.

My NES collection count: 757 games (16 to go for a full set)

Well I know with the first boss I jump kick him then crouch and punch him into submission. The 2nd boss it's either jump or duck the boomerangs then wail on him with jumpkicks or punches. 3rd boss is a jump kick followed by crouching punches to his gut. The initial jump kick seems to make him not throw out an initial kick. 4th boss I punch the balls he throws high and jump over the low ones (thanks dra600n) I used to start out with a jumpkick to destroy any high balls thrown. His way is easier. For Mr X I get close and wait for him to punch or kick then nail him with a jump kick. As long as you don't wait too long (since his health bar regenerates) you can kill him with 2 jump kicks.

This sounded like my kind of game. I'm the one who is charging into a group of bad guys just hitting buttons. But this game requires timing which I am OK at, I just don't know which punch or throw to use when. Got free time tonight maybe I get the hang of it.

213,730. I had never tried this one. I didn't even realize it was in my collection. It's pretty fun and straightforward. I missed pausing before the game over so I had to take a pic of the high score.

Slight improvement. I was actually able to get the 5,000 bonus for jump-kicking the 12th enemy on levels 1,2 and 3 which was surprising. Good to see a lot of great scores this week.

Does anyone know if there's any truth to the rumor that if you get through all 50 rounds you fight Sylvia at the end?
 



Absolutely false!
That's what I thought, thanks for the clarification. Sounded like one of those old-wives-tales but a lot of sites still claim it to be true.

 



I just hate that some dickhole actually made it up and got some people to buy into it. So...you save your girlfriend from bad guys 49 tiimes in a row but on the 50th attempt she wants to kick your ass? Yeah... She should bend over the chair after rescue number 50.

Pfft, after the first time. I mean, the stage 1, 2, 3, and 5 bosses are easy, but I bet she never had some dude tossing moth balls and snake balls at her.
 
You know, with her tied to that chair, if the two of them are into bondage it could get interesting real quick...

Better late than never! Always loved Kung-Fu as a kid. I'm extremely happy with the score I got. Some of those scores you other guys got...just wow! 356,880 points. Looking forward to more gaming on here. Cheers! ^>^ 



Also, the Magician sucks the big one!

Neat score, especially since I achieved it in only 3 games. My personal record is something around 1,600,000ish, which helped me to beat dra600n in the bracket style tournament last year (kudos to you Adam).

I was going to try to increase my score this weekend but it was filled with watching Breaking Bad episodes and Final Fantasy playing instead,so I'll just have to settle for whatever place I end up with.
