bensweeneyonbass replied to a poll Arcade - Donkey Kong - Points [Hammer Allowed] - 1,272,800 - Robbie Lakeman in

Cancel culture is a myth fabricated to scare white middle-aged voters and give people yet another excuse they can point to make them feel better about being wrong. Aaaaanyway, you use the term detractors and it makes me wonder what you think people are trying to say here. I'm going to reiterat

Snowflake I mentioned earlier in response to you that I wasn't sure there was even a voltage tolerance definition but it would seem the primary chip tolerance is 5V � .25V As far as we know this was within range because when the resolution of the meter only goes to the tenth it's not fine enough

I'm quoting Ken and I hope he doesn't hate me for it but it provides information and new information is valuable. This is from a post at DKF: "Tricky slippery slope here. Almost certainly the low voltage didnt positively effect his game, I'm sure stats will prove that out. When I asked about the

I'd like to think there is a different context around a game not having working sound and a video having clearly been uploaded without sound. Some effects are identical like we can't hear the game sounds. Some are not like Kelly didn't try to silence the video but Robbie clearly did. I truly believe

expandedidea you said everything way better but I was totally thinking the opposite - he was trying to get it accepted not expecting it to get rejected. No matter what he expects, though, he's in a winning position. Martyr if rejected, Beater-Of-The-System if accepted. Ok I have nothing else to add

I believe Robbie thinks he is trying to slip something by us here and at DKF. As if to be cheeky or a troll or whatever. The thing is this - he's probably not slipping anything by. He makes a point to show the voltage then makes a point to omit the sound. The run is still very likely legitimate but

bensweeneyonbass replied to a poll Arcade - Donkey Kong - Points [Hammer Allowed] - 1,272,800 - Robbie Lakeman in

As for the sound not being present in general - I would abstain if anyone submitted without sound, especially if they already have submissions on the same machine that include sound (which is true in Robbie's case). The sound of a game is part of the operation of the game and thus provides evidence

bensweeneyonbass replied to a poll Arcade - Donkey Kong - Points [Hammer Allowed] - 1,272,800 - Robbie Lakeman in

It's less about checking what the voltage is (as you point out it's shown in the video) and more about how the game is operating at that particular voltage. 4.7V may be in "tolerance range" although I'm not sure such a range has been defined anywhere, but 5V is specified in the schematic. If 4.7V ma

I'll find some links if I can but I'm on my work PC so I can't look at FB. Anyway Robbie has openly discussed modifying the voltage to try to affect RNG. If someone messed with the voltage I bet the sound gets screwy. I don't know that. But amidst discussion of tampering with how the hardware runs,

No need to confirm settings via the menu as they can all be verified visually. 5 lives to start, bonus at 10k, and this is regular speed not turbo speed. Clearly played on an iCade 60-in-1. Great run!

Sigh ok I forgot. There's been some recent discussion about the value of a 2P score. Is score taken when both players are completely dead or is it taken when there ceases to be two players playing simultaneously? I'm not trying to lean either way, really, because I don't know much about how 2P score

This is one of my all-time favorite ports to the NES. It plays so damn well. Not sure what's going to happen with the 2P submissions but keep at it. Something will get figured out. I'm going to hold off on voting YES until I know what's going to happen with that, though, as it may be better to ha

This Weekend: Ottumwa's Twin Galaxies Arcade Party Nov 18-20, 2016

Arcade party in Ottumwa, IA this weekend. It's just a good old fashioned weekend of playing great arcade games and no one will be getting famous for it. Just having some fun.

Where else on the planet can you get an arcade patch? As cool as any Activision patch you might own!
