New world record scores for Don Pachi, Ibara and Raiden III

NTSC-J · Post by **NTSC-J** » Fri Dec 01, 2006 10:53 am

I checked out the latest Arcadia that came out yesterday in the hopes of Mushi Futari Ultra mode news (no luck), but noticed some improved scores to some popular games. I'm not sure if these are indeed the very highest, as Arcadia lists the best scores of the month that aren't necessarily WRs, but they're higher than what is listed on Gemant's Arcadia/Gamest high score archive page so I thought it might be of some interest to a few.

The Ibara and Raiden 3 scores are just a hair above previous WRs, but still impressive considering how maxed out those games seemed to be. Most incredible is SOF-WTN's DP score, which is a healthy 5 million above the previous high. There was no mention how far he got on one man or how many players he finished the game with, but it's nice to see the king of the 'Pachi's holding on to his title.

Don Pachi - 64.190.190
Ibara (normal) - 31.983.440
Raiden III (1P) - 18.890.930

64 million is an incredible score and is also a new world record. Needless to say I hope WTN eventually releases a replay video.

Yeah, I was thinking about that as well the other day.

I have an ibara PS2 video where the player has a square in the millions place for his top two scores. The video is about 4 minutes long and shows him against the end boss. The player also set it up so he would get 4 hadou bombs whenever he died.

I'm really curious how people are getting > 30 million on DP. I'd love to see where they are picking up those super-combos.

Wow, nice to see a new DonPachi record

If you don't bomb, the capacity/end of stage bonus is very high in the second loop stages.
The other main strategy would be to start combos with a large enemy, and try to keep that combo going.

What's the current highest World Record score for the Seibu Kaihatsu produced Raiden & Raiden II arcade Jamma PCBs?

They stop counting after 10 million (100 if more than 10 million is scored in a loop) for games with loops more than 2

Can you give an example of a full bomb bonus in the 2nd loop?

I've seen 29 mil replays, and can't imagine a way to double that score.

If you can finish the level and haven't died yet and used less than three bombs you get a "capacity bonus" at the end of the level with value:

1-1: 100,000
1-2: 200,000
1-3: 400,000
1-4: 800,000
1-5: 2,000,000
2-1, 2-2, 2-3, 2-4, 2-5: 5,000,000

To date no one has gotten the capacity bonus on 2-4 with the A/B ship. No one has gotten the capacity bonus on 2-3 with the C ship.

Here are scores for the end of each level that you should aim for if you want a world record with the A/B ships:

1-1 1.5M (the world record for level 1 is 1.87m)
1-2 5M
1-3 10M
1-4 16M
1-5 28M
2-1 35M
2-2 43M
2-3 50M
2-4 53M
2-5 60M
and the 1M bonus for each of your 3 remainings ships: 63M

Argh, Ibara is so hard for me I have YET to get up on the scoreboard.

Is the new Ibara high score by ACR or someone else?

Do you have info about chaining for every level? When chain starts, when ends, etc....

zlk · Post by **zlk** » Mon Dec 04, 2006 12:59 am

I have no additional information destructor.

Give me until ~May or so, and I'll be able to give you an optimal score breakdown stage by stage, chain by chain, atleast for the first loop.

First loop will be enough for me. I will start to play on DonPachi until end this year (I want to double my score). Maybe I will found good chains too (I'm very weak chainer).

Try to get this chain down, it's worth quite a few points (it's for the beginning of 1-5):

I know this chain but using C ship. Must try with A ship.

Thanks sik.

Good luck doing that 1.65m combo with any kind of consistency.

Still, that is a very nice video.

If your goal is to score 50m, you really need only to score 20m at the end of the 1st loop. Just make sure you get the capacity bonus on 2-1,2-2, and 2-3. Getting the capacity bonus on 2-3 is very, very hard.

In the upper right corner of page 203 of this month's Arcadia are two paragraphs about the donpachi record. WTN used the "A" ship to get his record at the Daytona III arcade. It also says something about scoring 28.38m at the end of the 1st loop. It then says something about 30m at the end of the first loop. Perhaps someone who knows Japanese can translate what it says.

Holy crap!

That Ageha score is through the roof. I have no idea where that guy is picking up so many extra points.
