Donpachi (new thread)
Nice replay shoe-sama. Why did you waste all your bombs before ST2 boss - was it to lower your rank? Not experimented with that much myself. My attempt with the International version on Mame:shoe-sama wrote:olol marp doesn't allow offsite linking huh

That should do the trick.
also lol ddp no shooting run (except to kill bosses) would be hilarious
RGC - 7,599,930 - 1-5 - max hit: 61 - Type C
Unlike the PSX port the arcade has no autofire. Hope to loop the emu version sometime soon, then try port (which is harder)
Service mode. It should be F2 by default. Hold it till you get to a menu (don't hold it TOO long, because you have to hold it to get out too) and select "CONFIGURATION". Applies to pretty much every Cave game on Cave hardware.RGC wrote:Nice replay shoe-sama. Why did you waste all your bombs before ST2 boss - was it to lower your rank?

- US; the one you're playing; bombs restock to max capacity between levels
- Japan; everyone plays this; bombs DON'T restock
- Korea; not sure
- Hong Kong; supposed to be ridiculously hard compared to other 3; I think it's only playable in the newer MAME versions

Made another improvement
Smraedis - 19,260,930 - 2-5 - Max Hit: 82 - Type C
Had a better run overall, first loop was good and high scoring, got hit early into 2-2, so I played safely through the rest, and got this far.
I wish the game didn't take so long to get this far, only get enough time for a few plays every day.

Hey thanks ^^ I always thought that I'd never make it past 2-4, now I'm getting to at least 2-4 on every run, no matter when I get hit... that makes me just want to play for score even more.
Now it is 2-5 which is too much for me, I've not found a safe way to make it through the stage without getting hit, which is what I want to do

I am so sorry that I did not record this!
Smraedis - 22,766,650 - 2-6? - Max Hit: 80 - Type C
What is happening?
Seriously, I've had a really busy week, and just had my first practice run, scored just 11m on the first loop, so tried a bit harder on the second loop.. the first time I properly got hit was on the 2-4 boss pattern. This is the best I have ever done for survival, and I was playing for score at the same time...
I started 2-5 with 3 ships left, got point blanked at the bottom of the screen, early into the stage.. I bombed a little too much in 2-5, and only had those last two bombs for the boss... I just tried to dodge like crazy, and it worked got about halfway through hibachi, I'm not like zlk, who can beat it without using bombs.
Since I got this far, I'll record all my runs from now on.. and play for the clear instead.
