    I truly suck at Donkey Kong :( will throw up some scores for the craic soon too!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,147 ✭✭✭CathalDublin


    Good luck, Its been about 3 years since I've played, I'll have a go but I'm guessing I'd get no where near that, I think I was able to break 100,000, barely.
    My goal is to 1CC Bubble Bobble

    My goal this year is to build a cab. Who knows, maybe by the summer I'll be top of the leaderboard, ha. I don't think I've ever played the DK arcade game. At most maybe 5 minutes here or there on one of those old scart multi game controllers.

    I never noticed Donkey Kong was picking his nose in the bezel before:eek:

    I got to level 4 elevators,

    I take it back the only place I got 100,000 must have been a dream, I just played 10credits and the best I had was 26,500:eek:
    Its such a difficult game, one credit you might get to the 3rd level, the next you wont get past the first, the worst is when you die on a rivit stage, aghhhh its so annoying:mad:
    Getting better at bubble bobble, can consistantly get to the fourties levels and 1,000 000+ with every credit

    Practice makes perfect....... In most games. But not dk!
    Was playing earlier was was doing fantastic.
    Then 2 wild barrels in a row and a silly mistake and that was that.

    139,900 I'm calling it 140,000!
    Interestingly I took a different approach in that game. Instead of points milking I played a "safe" game. Still had a ton of dodgy moments and a **** ton of luck.

    Wow smelly finger, you must have played thousands of games to get that good at it.
    I'm up to 31,500 now


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,076 ✭✭✭safetyboy

    Donkey Kong is a great game for making you think you're **** at games.

    I think the highest I've ever gotten was around the 10k mark and that was probably just a fluke :pac:

    Seriously have admiration for folks who can put out decent scores.


  • Posts: 7,499 ✭✭✭ [Deleted User]


    Back at this again,
    Had a couple of good 100k+ games last night.
    The profanities were many!
