    Contest

    Would I get in trouble for running a points contest that would be free and open to all SBR PROS and non-pros?

    No entry fee required for anyone

    Just me giving out points to the winner

    It was released for the arcade in 1989 and then got ported and released on the NES in 1990

    This is from the NES version

    Yeah, I think that I'll keep all the contests in this thread

    Although that means there will be a lot more clicking and scrolling to get to the new info, it'll be nice to have everything contained in one area

    Ah.

    I was wondering if there was a way to be able to do this

    I will need to make the future contests a little bit more difficult

    Thanks Hman

    if you have them daily or longer, id make a new thread each time

    if you have 1 right after the other, then in 1 thread

    this is the most action most of us have right now


    but yea, id give typing hints instead of photo hints

    I am planning on running one of these at least once a week

    Probably should make a new thread for each one to keep things more organized

    Maybe a mixture of typing hints and harder to decipher photo hints

    Glad to be able to help with the action

    Those are some good retro systems and may make an appearance in one of these contests

    I think Mechanized Attack is a pretty fun game

    It came out for the arcade and NES

    Battling cyborgs is always a good time

    Do a quick video showing the image, upload to youtube and embed in your post to solve the image search problem.

    Wow, that is a great idea and makes a lot of sense

    I think that this is the the method that will be used from now
