I'm super proud of my Track & Field score. And dammit I am inching closer to Mog's Marble Madness score. One day.  

Any scores you guys are proud of?

Heck yes.
There are a few games I will always be a contender in...Contra and Dr. Mario are the two main ones right now...but don't worry Khan, I am coming after your Frogger score. How could would it be to be THE GUY that is better at UFC than the creator?

Some of the members here are on another level but I'd still like to try my luck in some shoot em ups.

I have decided that some people are going to have to log some serious HOURS of game play if they want to hold onto their high scores.
No more of this, run in...top the current high score and bail...

I was proud of my Gradius score until I decided to erase all my score (most of which were legit). I figured I wasn't 100% sure which were legit and which weren't... this will motivate me to game more.

Is this the first max out score we have seen?
I am not nearly good enough to verify myself in person, but impressive

Thank you!   I had taken a challenge to beat Battletoads with no cheats, warps or continues about 2 months ago and I've kept fresh by playing through every week or so. I find the game has more than enough points to max out by the end! I had maxed out my points by the end of Intruder Excluder, but kept playing anyway.

I would not mind recording or streaming my next play through! I enjoy playing Battletoads so it's not a bother to try again  

Hoping to challenge more high scores soon! Loving the friendly competition on these boards!

This is honestly the most fun I've had playing NES since the 80s.

I feel the same way! I can go back and really get into some of the older games again that I got out of the habit of playing. Definitely the most fun I have had with my NES in years!

Oh and under my profile. I see all the high score I have registered with the AVS...How do the rank points work? And rank point average?

Ha nice. I think this is going to expand my horizons. I'll likely play every scoreboard game for a good bit to get some kind of decent score on each. Will also focus on a few games I'm familiar with to see how high I can get. Should be fun!

You're lucky that my Scoreboard malfunctioned after you left, because I wound up with 174,180. Absolutely furious and fucking miserable right now.

I've never really played Marble Madness for more than a minute. I see you guys are seasoned players. What control scheme should I use?
