Tourney 4 Settings minus Bubble Bobble(+ reason)

greenspun.com : LUSENET : MAME Action Replay : One Thread

TG(and T4 settings) are below:

Arkanoid II: Default

Bubble Bobble: SEE BELOW

Gaplus: Difficulty: 4 - 3 lives - extras at 50K, 150K only - this was created by myself - I saw the 10 million point marathon by HIR - and I don't think the judge(whoever it is) wants to see that in my opinion...

Green Beret: Medium Diff. - 3 lives, extras at 30K, every 70K

Pnickies: Normal difficulty - anything else I need? This is default.

Rally X: Medium - 3 cars - extra = 20K

Solar Fox: Diff = 3, 3 bases, extra = 20, 100, 300K, 10 levels after

Street Fighter II: Hardest Difficulty

Bubble Bobble's TG settings are Medium Diff. - 3 lives - extra 30, 100, 400K - but since it's already being played at the decatholon - I would think you want to make it more difficult - any opinion or keep the TG settings?

Thanks for reading :) - GB9

make it MORE difficult, try to eliminate (if that is even possible with these) marathon games.

Use Standard Tournament settings for Bubble bobble.

Why? Besides that one is a BOOTLEG of the other. The Real differnce between the 2 games is that in Bubble Bobble (Taito) the ENEMIES can FIRE at you. Where as in Bobble Bobble (Bootleg) the ENEMIES DO NOT FIRE at you.

Therefore, Bubble Bobble is already a HARDER game. Do forget that BACKDOOR tricks are not allowed in TGTS settings (Power Up, Original Game, and Super MODE).

I think that we ought to stick to TG settings for Bubble Bobble - of course without using the codes. Why does everybody seem to regard these codes as cheating? The game still isn't all that easy with them. Anyway, for the tournament, use TG settings for Bubble Bobble - no codes, fine by me. No need to make it harder than it already is without the power up code.

I agree with Barry on Bubble Bobble. If we're using the Bubble Bobble set then stick with the TG settings as the ghosts/drunks firing at you will make it harder/different than the Decathlon game.

As for the rest of the games, since I'm not really familiar with them I couldn't possibly comment and will go with the flow - assuming I find enough spare time to compete in T4.
