Great job to guil and dev for their great showings in this tournament. Together, we put on quite a show!

Thanks also to Bimmy for putting all of this together. Nintendoage has become a great place for fun NES contests and it all starts with him. Can't wait to see what you have in store for us in 2013!


As far as videos go, I have a couple of things in mind, if anyone's interested:

I don't have any footage from my run, but I have definitely been inspired to put together a new video on Galaga. I looked on YouTube and there's nothing out there that shows all of the craziness with the scoreboard when you reach the upper millions.

I did however record the last few rounds of Donkey Kong, so look for that as soon as the holidays allow time for me to upload it. I won't show the whole 7+ hours, but things really got interesting at the end, as I was down to my last life shortly after reaching 3 million.

Ice Hockey? Nah, that link dev provided in this thread shows almost everything there is to know. Besides, I'm SO sick of playing this game. I swear the thing cheats!

Finally, Ghosts 'n Goblins wasn't anything special, so no video needed. I just played through the whole game naturally, except I point racked a bunch of zombies on Stage 3. I died a bunch of times, so my score could probably be improved by quite a bit.
