(Arcade WR News) Metal Slug 2 & 3
I would like to congratulate Jordan Vick for taking down two Metal Slug scores in the same day. His first one was a score for MS 2 as he puts up 2,317,440 and takes the top spot on the board. His second score of the day is on MS 3 with a nice score of 1,072,750 and also taking the top spot on the board.
Nice job!

Well done Jordan. These titles are extremely hard (well for me!) so those scores are insane! Me thinks a certain poodle will be trying to claim the record back!

Well, this will give me something to do tomorrow.

Most definitely! And gee... where are my manners?
Let me extend my congratulations to Mr. Vick and my respect for choosing such great games to compete on :)
I look forward to both of us increasing our abilities through this friendly competition. I know that competition has made me a better gamer than any other method could have.

I was lucky enough to catch the stream on NintendoAge. It was done at the Minus World arcade, somewhere in Washington State i think. Bill Carlton was there also, as was a Missile Command machine, but I don't think he made any attempts.
Good luck on your quest to regain your records Danny, pretty impressive list of Metal Slug scores

Hey guys, Bill here...
Jordan is my step son. After 7 1/2 years, I married his mother last month.
Of course we are proud but everyone is aware these scores will get higher shortly.
On both games, he beat the WR on his first man.
For now he has two WR's set on the same day.
My man!!!

That's awesome man! Any Missile Command attempts planned? I've been hoping you'd do a stream one of these days, after watching the High Score documentry.
I think I've watched it 3 times now, and it inspired me to set my own Marathon attempt. Got some good ideas while watching the video.

As fate would have it, Bill will be marathoning Missile Command this Labor Day weekend, hopefully for the last time. (80 million or bust!) I understand the plan is to start tomorrow (Friday) morning. I'd look for stream information at Aurcade then.
This will be at the usual location near Portland, OR. Assuming Bill starts tomorrow morning I would expect he'd reach the current record sometime mid-day Sunday (Pacific time), also assuming he doesn't take an unscheduled smoke break that causes his game to end early again.
I understand there may be a Robotron marathon going on at the same time at the same location. Not positive. I'll find out tomorrow when I get there I guess. :)

Nice! I was wondering with the 3 day weekend!
Tim McVey said earlier this month he would attempt to take his Nibler record back, and on Monday Tom Votatava is going to attempt a DK NES Kill screen.
Should be an exciting weekend!
