I must be the only person who finds Sengeki Striker (Japan version) fairly easy. Your laser is just too powerful.

RIP Warashi.

If I knew my way around the boss patterns better (and they weren't so tight) I could just about agree. The laser needs to be able to knock things down quickly for scoring, and the recharge time can bite you.

I'm not sure I'll be playing much either as my plate is already pretty full, but I should have time for one or two credits.

Any difference between versions in GB2?

There are some options in the service menu ... International A, International B, etc.

Nice selection of games. Now that I finally have a decent stick I'll join the competition.

Bloody hell, after consistently reaching 1-5 in GB2, I did a credit feed through the rest of the 1st loop.

Holy shit, talk about ridiculous difficulty. Makes me wonder if it's even worth it.

Sengeki Striker is interesting though!
