I'm not a big Vasara person, but I've noticed that you don't need the code; there's supposed to be a dipswitch setting for Magoichi. Or at least, MAME tells me so. But hey, it's MAME.

Maybe I'll play. I like how Vasara works. It's fairly straightforward, and that's cool.

Hmm, is there one? I honestly never checked, I'll hafta do that. In any case, hopefully you'll submit a score or two - the more the merrier. :)

EAH (skull) - 401,990 - Stage 3 59 Prestige Kills - Saika

Ha, finally beat the 310K hump, but barely. Copped a stupid death at the beginning of Stage 3 (just past the field with a scarecrow).

Also, I just noticed that it's got me up there as Sanada, but I've been using Saika all this time. I assume that's the right name for the "fan gal."

And the Vasara 1 list increases to 25. :) Always good to see new people trying out this rather under-appreciated shmup...now who's up for tackling the sequel? ;)

At some point I was working on a Vasara ALL, but I stopped for some reason and never got back to this. Maybe I'll do it after the STGT.

Ruldra - 673,310 - 5? - 115 Prestige Kills - Saika

I really can't remember what stage I reached, but considering the number of prestige kills, I'm guessing stage 5.

In Vasara 2, is Difficult (er uh, "Hard") Mode a second loop, or 6 brand new stages?

Welcome to our two latest newcomers. :) Nearly 30 people on the original's table now. Just one thing for future submissions - if possible, also note how many "prestige kills" (the guys with the flags) you get along with your score, they should be recorded on the game's HS screen as well.

I've actually got a rough start of a Vasara ST lying around, but haven't gotten a chance to finish it. If you look around this thread, though, there are a handful of hints and strategies scattered about - any specific questions, just ask them here and someone will surely try to answer them. :)

I generally only shoot at areas that are confusing, i.e. I haven't memorized them yet. When you memorize enemy patterns and whatnot, you'll generally do better and score higher with the charge-up attack, as I'm sure you have seen.
