I know I can do it. The only time I lose a life is to the yellow disc soldiers right before Bebop and Rocksteady. If I can get the drop on them, I can no death the whole thing. I never wind up with a very high score, though. Not even close to 1000, so I'll likely still be third place even if I no death it.
The real points come from throwing the foot soldiers into the screen. 3 points instead of 1 is huge. You can also score 50 bonus points each on the bonus stages if you get perfects. That's hard to do, but if you can do it consistently, 100 points would obviously make a huge difference. There are bonus points to be had for beating Super Shredder without getting hit, as well. I played through again trying to max out the score as much as possible and I ended up with around 1350. You could probably get to 1500 if you manage to toss every single foot and score perfect on both bonus stages. Now, on hard, I can get over 1400 pretty consistently, so I'm thinking you might be able to get as high as 1600 there. This is, of course, assuming you don't intentionally point rack against Shredder or Krang.

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.
