It's a nice offer, but it would have to get approved by Macaw.

Since I can run Guardian Force, can I use my score for it instead of my Mahou score?

Sorry, gotta use mahou score so everyone is equal.

Guardian Force is awesome, so I will probably start a separate high score thread for it in the future.

Turds... I haven't had time to set up Mame yet. Anybody what my place in this before I continue?

EDIT! Scratch that. All this time thinking MAME and Emulators was all confusing and just for techies and it's actually really easy, and I can use all my tasty sticks through my Mac with ease.

For about 10 years I thought MAME was just for people with IT degrees or tech training and really it's no more complicated than some basic stuff I know. Maybe it was because when I tried it 10 years ago it was a little less accessible.

So I'm in, and I'm ready to go! And I'm an idiot!

I look forward to the duel then Sir!

Macaw, oh feathery wonder; what day do we submit our scores? I'm slightly confused by the timing. Have I missed a thread? Do we pay in bird seed a crayfish shells to enter?

Oh, all of sudden I am in? Great... Mahou Daisakusen right? I haven't played it for years now.

I could have played Guardian Force, I own the Saturn version. And at least I know how to play it properly instead of Mahou Daisakusen. Oh well.... :D

That's funny because someone could read that and think we were actually playing Great Mahou Daisakusen (it would never get picked though since it would be incredibly annoying and bad for a scoring competition). Actually for the first second or so, I misread the game to play as Shippu, because it seems to me like a Macaw sort of game.

So what's the next game? I'm pretty hype since we played Mahou Daisakusen (and we could have played the hella awesome Guardian Force if people had computers better than p3's).

You'd need a late, late P4 to run Guardian Force. My old 1.6 GHz P4 crap couldn't run it, that's for sure.

Also, who's gonna be my rival next time? Don't be shy. (I'll probably do best if I'm stuck with Fu again, and vice versa, most anybody else is gonna own us lol)

I have a 1.73 ghz pentium M laptop and Guardian Force ran fine for me. I was using wolfmameplus106 IIRC.

I play MAME on my laptop sometimes. It has a shitty keyboard and can only register 1 alfabetical key at once though, so I have to let go of fire if I want to bomb :(

if people had trouble running Guardian Force, they will also have trouble running Sonic Wings Limited, as, if I recall correctly, both run on the same hardware, thus they use the same driver, so they will have the same performance on the same system.

I remember the game running really poorly on my system...
