Need a 1.13mil-ALL run with the F-14? I was screwing around a few years ago and recorded it.

EDIT: Nevermind...it's one of the .inps that I never got around to recording with FRAPS and now I don't know what version I was using.

Nice find! Is Sonic Wings Special any different than this game?

Sonic Wings special has stages from all 3 Sonic Wings games, which it doesn't sound like this game has.

I feel like I'm answering this question over and over again.

Sonic Wings Special and Sonic Wings Limited both have the same concept (remixing the three original SW games) and share some graphics, but they are independent games with totally different stage layouts. Additionally, SWS has branching paths. You can chose which way to go twice during every playthrough. SWL has linear stage progression.

There is something very wrong with those videos. I believe they were recorded on super easy setting or something. On normal/default, there are twice the number of bullets on the fisrt stage alone. Even with my autofire circuit, I can't destroy that building on the right fast enough without it spitting out 2-3 long streams of fire.

Wish I had a capture card to show, but this game is very manic, and hard as hell on normal/default settings (probably doesn't help that I suck too). :wink:

[edit]Ok thought this might be the case. In comparing the two roms I own, the Japan region is a ton easier than the Taiwan region. In fact, the Taiwan "Easy" setting is actually more difficult than the Japan "Hard" setting! Glad it wasn't just me sucking. If this game had a second loop, the Taiwan version is it. :wink: [\edit]

Good news there. Taiwan version harder...who'd have thought? The opening stages would definitely benefit.

It appears Csuxico has gotten a couple more of those ROM boards. hmm

It's just that you get to the question before I do... or else it would be me answering it :)

Sometimes I feel we both are the only guys in the world who owns a copy of this game.
