While we're on the subject of "how", has anyone gone through the procedure of trying to get a score posted to Twin Galaxies? I thought it'd be a fun excursion to try to get my name on there for a game or two, even if it's not a record, but I've never gone through the process before.

Can I get my gamer tattoo award. My avatar pic is of my Mario 3 tattoo. Also have a konami code wrist tattoo and a nes controller on one ass cheek and a Mario/duck hunt cart on the other ass cheek. I know I posted some pics in the gamer tattoo thread ages ago but I can post some more pics when I get home if needed.

Maybe a story or an anecdote that could corroborate your claim?  I think it would be cool to read that.

There's not much to tell. I went to PowerFest '90 in Denver and paid $1 (IIRC) twice to compete on the special gray cart with SMB/Rad Racer/Tetris. Getting 50 coins took me until 1-2. I hadn't played Rad Racer before, so that was slow-going. I wasn't quite proficient at Tetris yet either, unable to reliably score a Tetris, so my limited time remaining didn't produce a high enough score to advance. I was only 8 years old at the time.

Didn't the standard SNES play PAL and NTSC anyway? I remember having a PAL Run Sabre that played just fine on my NTSC SNES. I know for SF games you have to clip the plastic bits inside the SNES.

Well, mine didn't. Which was why I modded it.

Does it count if you build it yourself? I just built this repro DK cabinet (the purists will see many differences such as the coin door, control panel overlay and a second button, etc.) and put a 60 in 1 Jamma PCB in it.

GAME SERIES AWARDS MASTER LIST:
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1ker6D3B6uZ0itwz_6hh6...

What is an Award?

Awards are small badges that you can have added to your NintendoAge account.

What do they do?


Nothing actually. Just a cool way to show that you have achieved a goal in your game collecting to other members. Kind of like an achievement or trophy.

How Can I get one (or a bunch)?

Make sure you have the item (or ALL the items) listed in the requirements, and post a photo of them in this thread! You can also PM a mod or Nintendotwizer, but they will still need to see proof you own the items. 

What types of awards can you get?

There are a few different types of awards you can have added to your NA account.  
There are some for:
-Having complete game sets (ex. Every licensed Nintendo game)
-Having special specific games or items (ex. A NWC cart, or a MAME cabinet)
-Having a complete series set (ex. every Ninja Gaiden game, across multiple systems)
-Other random things ( ex. Donating, writing for the community, holding twin galaxie records)

Rules for "Game Series" awards

Qualifications and rules for the Game Series Awards are as follows: 

What is and isn't on the series lists and why

- NA releases only for what games are considered for the list.
- So our Europe members aren't left out, PAL counterparts are OK for the completion of game series sets.
- Does not have to be CIB.  Loose is OK.
- Looking for original or close to original releases. Ports or variants within a couple years are OK.
- Remakes are not part of the list and cannot be substituted. Example: Resident Evil Remake for
 Gamecube or RE: Deadly Silence are not accepted and not part of the list. 
- Compilations and collections are not part of the list and can't be substituted for individual titles.
- Re-releases in the form of Players Choice, Greatest Hits, etc. are OK.
- Re-releases for a game that wasn't formally released individually. Example: Final Fantasy V. Was
 originally part of FF Anthology compilation, wasn't released individually until FF V: Advance. Therefore
  that's when it is added to the list. 
- DLC, cell phone games are not part of the list. 
- Only one console version is fine. (As in you don't need both PS3 and X360 versions.)
- Some games have the same title. Example: Mega Man for NES and Mega Man for Gamegear. If they
 are both on the list it means they are different enough to be considered unique titles. 
- List will be updated as needed. Please note that once a member has an Award, they get to keep it. Unless they sell off their collection or want their Award removed. 
- Smash Bros. games can be used as a extra, but used only once.  (Example:  You can't use Smash Bros. Brawl for all Star Fox, F-Zero, Earthbound, ect... only one series, one time for one game)
- If this seem to confusing, please just refer to the lists below for which games are required. 

Conditions for getting the award:

- Must have all the games for the series.
- Must have at least 5 additional "bonus items" that have to do with the series. This is to show fandom for a series beyond just a complete set.

Note: We are open to what bonus items can be. Examples of some are: Game variants (label, screw, color, error). A VGA copy of a game can be used as and extra.  Any release not listed (Example: Mario Tennis, Mario Party, GBA SMB ports, etc...). Releases from other regions, pirates, demos, protos. Strategy Guides, promotional materials. Toys, T-shirts, Halloween costumes, valentines, etc..... Handmade artwork, tattoos, bead-art may be considered.  Please note that CIB repos and imports count as one extra not three, as they go together as a set. 
Please keep in mind that these awards are intended to be difficult to get, so if it seems like you need a bunch of expensive, hard to find games to complete it, IT'S BECAUSE YOU DO!


The easiest way to get an award added to your account is to post pictures like this in this thread:




5 or more additional items (or they can all be in one picture if you prefer):

So I wanted to ask, I was thinking of going down and finally going for some of these rewards, but I don't know if I can do the 'extras' part. Are multi plat things allowed to be counted as an extra?

Example, I own every castlevania title, but I also own both versions on 360/ps3, and ps2/xbox, along with kid dracula, and a castlevania poster. So that makes for 5 'extras', but are those not considered extra enough?

I see some people count screw variants so i figured it would, but I don't wanna go blow up some pictures only to be told sorry, that doesn't count   Also, I was looking at the Halo list and it list Spartan Assault, but that never got a retail release in the US anyways, would it be alright to omit that?

I think those will work. Some the awards are meant to be very challenging, some are simple. If you own every Castlevania title, and you have 5 extra games and a poster, that shouldn't be an issue.

I can probably talk him down to $400CAD for all 4 since we are really tight he is one of the good resellers that understands the retention concept.

So it would be about $305USD for all 4 which to my understanding would be a steal considering the pricing.

The Lunar games have the cardboard boxes as well.
