Re: 2013 Retro Uprising Gaming Champ

tldr; please comment on the very last red section titled "The Undecideds".

I think about 20 games will be good.

Point Spread might be too small.
Super Bishi Bashi Championship - Arcade/Coin-Op - Score Board
Blockbuster Competition 2: NBA Jam And Judge Dredd - Sega Genesis

Might be too short.
Lethal Crash Race - Arcade/Coin-Op
Out Run - Arcade/Coin-Op several people have beat it but no one here is close to the world record. Not sure if that means this is good or bad for this contest. Someone else more familiar with the score system have an opinion?
Dragon Crystal - Sega Game Gear

Might be too hard.
Gauntlet 2 - Arcade/Coin-Op
Battlantis

I'm not familiar with the game. Can someone else make a call on this one.
Super Punch Out - Super Nintendo

we should be conscious of giving people too big of an advantage to start with.
Sounds like a good idea. That would eliminate
Antarctic Adventure - ColecoVision
Flicky - Sega Genesis - Score Board
Because Seahawk clearly has big head start in those two games.


For sure eliminated.
Too short.
Trick Trap - Arcade/Coin-Op - Score Board
Rush'n Attack - Arcade/Coin-Op - Score Board
Alien vs Predator - Arcade/Coin-Op
Pipe Dream - Arcade/Coin-Op - Score Board
D Pad Hero 2 - Nintendo Entertainment System
Capcom Sports Club - Arcade/Coin-Op

Too easy.
Bonk's Adventure 3: Bonk's Big Adventure - Turbo Grafx-16

Too hard.
Flipper Slipper - ColecoVision

Blurs the line between leeching and playing smart. Will lead to disagreements in an intense contest.
Tapper - Arcade/Coin-Op


Removed genres.
Dungeon Crawler - not great choices for competition.
Puzzle - already have drop, action puzzle, trivia, strategy, and maze that are all slightly similar to this.

That leaves.

  1. Arcade - Super Bagman - Arcade/Coin-Op

  13. Maze - Binary Land - Nintendo Entertainment System.
  14. Action Puzzle - Lode Runner 3: The Golden Labyrinth - Arcade/Coin-Op

  16. Rail Shooter - Dynamite Duke - Arcade/Coin-Op.
  17. Multi-Directional Shooter - Smash TV - Arcade/Coin-Op.
  18. Boxing - Super Punch Out - Super Nintendo or nothing.
