I've been using the old site format since the switchover occurred because I'm way more used to it.  You can still access the old site here:

http://vintage.nintendoage.com/forum/

Try this link and see if it will help you with posting your picture.



Let me know if it shows up. Please


Your picture is now showing up



Thanks.

I hope no one is taking my trash talking serious. That is a picture is actually my fist,post doghouse smashing,but it was old and we don't have any outside dogs anymore so I finally tore it up. Was definitely a good stress reliever after the 700th cheap DK Jr death.

Posting this now so I can enjoy a spot at the top of the scoreboard for a little while. I've been playing a lot this week and I know I can top this by Sunday night.


Just updated my score one last time. I think I logged more hours on this game this week than my combined lifetime total prior to this tournament. My best run was just shy of clearing level 6. Looking forward to the next round. Good luck all!

guts, you bring up a good point about Rush n' Attack. It's one of those games that could fit into a couple different genres. So I guess our round 2 game is an action/platformer/beat 'em up with shooter elements



After playing DK Jr. I'm ready to kill stuff.


After reading a lot of the comments about DK Jr. in the thread, I think just about everyone else is ready to kill stuff





I just want to give a 👍 for DK Jr.

I prefer it over the original.

Well, looks like it's one and done for me. I'm just not that good at DK Jr and I've never played Rush N' Attack, so I probably wouldn't have survived another round, anyway. Maybe next time.

Thanks for writing. I apologize for the delay in responding to your email during this busy time of year.
In regard to your email, it is great to hear that you have found a copy of Perfect Dark for the Nintendo 64. Perfect dark was a first person shooter game that was released in May of 2000. I personally enjoyed this game a lot during my mid-teen years since it allows for up to four players to play at one time. All the Perfect Dark cartridges were black.

I hope this information is what you are looking for.

Response I received from Nintendo customer support when I asked if they knew any thing about a black Perfect Dark cart.

Whew! I think I made it ...

I was out and about today. I tried playing on the PSP. That was not too great for competing! I didn't fair well on it and thus no update. I'm also surprised to see one spot from each tier had a no-show.

Good games, all!

Congratulations to all the people still in...
I'm sure I could get a better score if I had time, just had to work too much this week.
I guess next week I'll finally have to figure out how to get past those helicopter guys in Rush'N Attack

I never want to play that game again. You all don't realize but I was playing like 6+ hours per day unless I had to work. I'm to the point I can do the first three levels in my sleep. I only made it past level 5 once

Nice scores people! I really didn't like Dk Jr at first, but it grew on me. I didn't play much this week, because we've been moving. Had to unpack a few boxes to find my top loader and Dk jr game. Glad I did ok. Rush 'n' Attack huh? Haven't played that much

I was indifferent to this game before this week, but I've had my fill of it for a while too. I was playing it 3-5 hours daily. Since I never played Rush'n Attack (but I own it!) I think my time spent on DKJ will pale in comparison when this coming week is over.

Thats hardcore dude! I don't think I played 6 hours total. Maybe that's why I found it somewhat fun. Did you qualify for Rd 2?

Sorry for no score submission guys, I have been crazy sick the last few days with the flu, and I never felt well enough to lay into the game the last few days. Good luck to those left.
