[maximumsteve]

I am starting this thread for the purpose of developing a Mario Bros. High Score list just like the DK top 10 list on the front page of this site.If anyone has a serious score around or over a million points that can be viewed from beginning to end and very important...The dip switch bank has to be on medium difficulty setting, please reply here. Of course all thoughts and opinions on making this are appreciated. Cheers!

Mario Bros. Arcade - Hints and Tips

[gstrain]

Great idea and one of my favorite games!

Here's a MAME replay of my best of 1.7M - http://replay.marpirc.net/inp/9/e/7/g68_mario_1702730_wolf131.zip

I'm going to go ahead and add these scores (1 & 2) as they are indeed the two best ever.  And I'll also add my MAME score as it's a tad bit higher than my arcade score.  I'm also going to add another two arcade scores as they may be needed for now until they are topped.  Some may be missing since I don't have the TG database to look at and ChamPOW is missing scores.

I guess we are going with the highest score a person has made between arcade and MAME.


1) Tom Votava 4,678,440  Arcade (a score that very well may never be beat)

2) Perry Rodgers 3,481,550  Arcade ( Legendary score from back in the day that I respect very much)

3) Stephen Boyer  2,285,280   MAME      http://replay.marpirc.net/inp/b/4/a/rip_marioo_2285280_wolf106.zip

4)  Mauro Ruozi   1,376,000   Arcade

5)  Spencer Oueren  1,202,210  Arcade

I am starting this thread for the purpose of developing a Mario Bros. High Score list just like the DK top 10 list on the front page of this site. Enclosed will be a link to a game I recorded today on twitch for 1,352,020 points. Ben Falls and Stephen Boyer will also be submitting scores they recorded to watch, so anyone else that has a serious score around or over a million points that can be viewed from beginning to end, please reply here.

I'm confused by this..?

 
Also, please don't write the title in CAPS -- LOOKS VERY RUDY'esk..!!

I assure you this is not made by Rudy.     Also, what is confusing you?  It's just a top 10 list of the greatest Mario Bros. scores of all time and merging the arcade scores with the MAME scores.

My score on an arcade cab played and recorded today would make my score in 5th place now passing Spencer's score so moving on up! So close to the now 4th place score too!! Didn't realize it until the reply here with those 5 scores. In talking with Stephen Boyer and Ben, our opinions agreed that mame and arcade platform scores should be combined on here like the DK scores listed on the front of this site. I already talked to Richie about having a Mario off side event at the kong off this year so hopefully that will be followed through on. We probably should have a separate 2 players record scores list as well for reference. Keep chiming in folks! Cheers.

Mario Bros. is by far the most under appreciated classic arcade game there is. (Talk about starting a flame war )  I love that this is happening.  I don't have any single player scores to submit since I am more into doubles but I know there are a bunch of people in this crowd who can put up 1M+.  Let's get those scores coming in!

When you add the top 10-25 MB's scores, you can probably add the same list for 2-player scores even though there are only a handful of them.  Make two list, side by side, on your original posting.  Check your facebook link I sent you.

I've been telling people about Mario Bros. for YEARS!  Not only does it have ONE of the richest history's to a classic arcade game (First green pipe, 1st Luigi & 1st turtles) but it can argue as being the best 2-player game ever created (Joust & Bubble Bobble) and is also an amazing single player game.  I think if it comes out in 1981 or 1982 then it's much more popular than it is now.

Very cool idea! I would like to see the final product.

I like Mario Bros. and wouldn't mind a Mario Bros. HSL, but this sounds like a Millionaires Club or Only Top 10 -- so I'm confused about the criterias for MARIO BROS. HIGH SCORE LIST!!...

Regarding CAPS: IMPOLITE / YELLING LOOKS VERY RUDe

There really isn't anything different here compared to the Donkey Kong high score list.  It's all million pt. totals list for top 10.  However, I believe we have intentions of having the top 25 eventually   as these scores are continued to be gathered.  Just hang in there and the scores will show up. 

Do you have a current score you want to have added?

We also want to have the top 5-10 doubles for Mario Bros. but there are not a lot of them even though this may be the greatest game for 2 players.

What's with the supposed kill screen in this video?
Mario Bros. Arcade - Killscreen on Hardest (2/2)

How are you guys getting 4,000,000+ in that case? Maybe it was something that was fixed in those later revisions?

I've seen this on youtube before.  He uses a different version of Mario Bros. where the game ends after it gets right at 1 million or right before a million.  It's a glitch for that Mario Bros. release.  If you look at MARP you will see different versions of Mario Bros. and this version is tracked.

Thanks for the link to KLOV.  This will give me something to read at work today.

According to the video comments:

"It's a glitch in Revision F, which is the parent set in MAME. It is resolved by rebooting the board before playing. I didn't know about it at the time I did this. Relax bro."

I've never seen it before but it doesn't surprise me given there are a handful of different known roms in MAME:

Mario Bros. (Japan)
Mario Bros. (US, Unknown Rev)
Mario Bros. (US, Revision E)
Mario Bros. (US, Revision F)
Mario Bros. (PlayChoice-10)

[ripper]

There is also the slow down in Mario Bros. and possibly for all versions.  I seen it one time on this kill screen video where to much gets on the screen.  I almost NEVER see it on single player but I see it a good bit when playing doubles and to many coins or critters get on the screen at one time.  When you add the extra player ( luigi ) it must push the processor on the PCB to the limit.
