Defaults except for the PSP version, see below. Please do not use non-defaults for this game. For the arcade game, don't even bother with anything besides the Japanese versions. I don't think the PS2 and PSP versions have regional differences. I don't think the SFC version has regional differences. Please note what you used in any case.

PS2 and PSP are being treated as the same for now. If playing the PSP version, set "Hit Size" and difficulty to Normal.

To unlock Arcade difficulty in the SFC version, highlight the difficulty option, then mash the A button relatively quickly for a bit until "Arcade" appears. For this thread, I recommend sticking to Normal and Arcade difficulties. Please mention difficulty somewhere in your post. If anyone wants to submit scores for the SA-1 hack, I will gladly put up boards for it.

Please post scores in this format:

GAME - TYPE
NAME - SCORE - STAGE - SHIELD - AUTOFIRE - DETAILS

GAME is for whether you played arcade or PS2 or SFC etc. I'm not really sure why I'm bothering with SHIELD for this game, but if you use a non-Edit type, feel free to note it. DETAILS is for which emulator build/program version or which release/console you may have used.

Alright, everything updated I hope. If it were up to me, I'd blank the SFC tables and demand everyone play the SA-1 hack. Muahaha...

[Despatche]

Cleaned up the thread in preparation for that very cool AM Show version coming soon. Wish more people were playing the SA-1 hack, oh well.
