Congrats to Mike on getting 1,349,000 live while streaming at the Kencade!!!

Congrats Mike! Awesome job!

[VON]

Congratulations Kasper!!

That will cost you $60 sir.

[Jonesy]

Wow, congrats indeed.

Not totally surprised after watching the last attempt/s, If only i'd known it was streaming!

[JNugent]

Congratulations Kasper!!

That will cost you $60 sir.

You beat me to it.

So, since Ken was there watching the game, does that mean it was verified for free? Otherwise, this would be the perfect opportunity to not submit out of protest that people were talking about. I hate to do this to my friends (Jourdan and Richie), but it's gotta take something like someone sitting on a WR and not submitting in protest to get their attention and show how serious gamers are about this. :-\

congrats well played Mike!

Congrats, Great Score! Wonder how much further it can be pushed up?

I believe Ken's house is recognized as a live arcade venue, so there wouldn't be a charge for the score.

That's a really, really, really, nice score!   Very awesome job!  Again, Mike just hit it out of the park if that is his score.  Very cool beans.


Edit: We are talking about Donkey Kong Junior. LOL


For people 30 years from now who will be wondering what in the world Make Kasper got a World Record in.

 Thanks everyone for the support and encouragement and all the nice words ! And a special   Thank you to KEN HOUSE. for the belief and support. the use of the mame for the practice and the arcade to set the WR's in ( we have been through a lot in 30+ yrs. glad to have you back in this chapter of my life ). And a ty and shout out to the previous WR holder. MARK KIEHL ! WHAT a class act. TY for the advice. and the help. and the support while trying to take your record. I will be doing the same for you as you attempt to take it back ! GL my friend !
Now on to the next world record HEHE

Congrats, Mike! Obviously the potential for higher scores is there as well! Perhaps Junior will see scores over 1.4 million! Thanks for the props, and good luck with Mappy! haha

It was just happenstance that I tuned in. I was in the middle of stuff but he was at 700K+ and well over pace so I had to watch the rest!

As for the "fee", the Kencade is one of the officially-sanctioned arcades, and Ken himself is a ref. So the score is already official and verified.

Wow! I had never heard of this player before BOTA and now this. That escalated quickly.

[corey.chambers]

Nice job, Mike! I have been watching you play and I knew you would do it. Sorry I missed it live. Congrats for sure!

[homerwannabee]

Wow, saw parts of that.   Had no idea you came close to getting 20,000 extra on the last level.  Very nice game indeed.  Your very much advanced than me on this game.  Even your crummy games are way better than my awesome games.  Congrats on this.  I really hope you get big time your name out there for what you have done.


Edit:  One thing.  I do find Mike Kasper very entertaining for a classic arcade game player.  I swear if the Kong Off III has a commentator it has to be Mike Kasper.  Not only is his commentary awesome, but he sounds like Dan Patrick!

Congrads Mike.
