9 points? Oo
I thought my run would give me at most 6 or 7, if there weren't more than 5 players =/
It seems I underestimated it.
What's funny is that this is the one I had the less time to play (after Ninja Gaiden of course)
I began playing it Sunday at 21:30 I think.

Guess I'll have to take this seriously this week. But as this game is pretty fun I'll probably spend some time on it. Very Happy

YES!!! An excuse to post this:



Usa, your title seriously needs to be "The Funky-Fresh Rabbit" for at least the next week. Seriously.

Eh, I would, but I think my current title should tell you why I won't be doing that.

Sent the winning run Very Happy

It might beat NS' run too, but as he's busy playing Diablo III all the time he might not even submit something that beats my first run Sad

I've sent my entry. At first I wasn't even able to get to the boss. Then I did it, but lost three lives, and then two, and then one.
And when I'm finally able to not die at all, I spend lots of time on arc 5 because I fall everywhere and miss the platforms, while in the ones where I died I was completing arc 5 a lot faster.
And that's the stupid entry I sent, because I wasn't even able to redo it without dying ¬¬
I always spend too much time on arc 5 and the boss Mad

I don't think that I'll win any challenge with the lame entries I always send Rolling Eyes

Here we have another game not released in North America, Gimmick! I swear it's way better than Challenger. It's also quite a tough game. Gimmick's "gimmick" is the ability to create a start that you can use as a weapon or as a platform to ride on (easier said than done). Your objective is to clear level 6. Try to get as far as you can before running out of lives. Time will be the tiebreaker for those who beat the level.

Game file: Gimmick!
Save state: State 0

Send your .vmv's to:
slfcontest@gmail.com (me) or

Good luck!

Yes, it's a rom hack! This game is just like the endless modes of Mega Man 9 and 10. It features a number of areas that you can find in the original game, as well as plenty of new ones, including a couple laser segments! The save state puts you at the start of the third loop on hard mode. Because of this, enemies will do significantly more damage, and you'll have less than a minute to complete each section. This is mainly to prevent overly long videos. Your goal is to get as far as you can. Most screens wins.

Game file: Rockman 5 Endless
Save state: State 0

Interested to see the robot's run. I hit about 6:40 before I destroyed gaming my capability.

I love me a good rom hack, but I don't think it really has a place in a so called "NES Championship."

You should stick to the games they way they are on the console, or just call it the NES Emulation Championship.

You could flash it onto a copier and play it on a real console if you really feel the need.


I'm not a bad enough dude, but I am an edgy little shit. I'll do what I can.
