Hmm, I've got some serious practicing to do here. I popped it in last night and did rather poorly - only cleared two boards... I think I'm going to have to dig out the good ol' NES Advantage joystick for this one.
As for proving the score... I was just going to take a picture of the TV set with a digital camera. If you turn out the lights, turn off the flash, and put the camera on something, you can get a pretty clear picture of a TV screen. Even with the flash, you can make out the score OK - it just tends to wash out the very center of the screen, where it's curved the most.
