Dr. Mario Challenge




Posted by NES Queen

Ok, I was finally able to get a linked game working through Nestopia to play Dr. Mario with a friend of mine down in Florida. It's a bit laggy at times, but it's better than nothing.

Every one of my friends up here in NY I've played (and now him too down in FL) sucks and doesn't come close to beating me. I'm looking for someone who's willing to take a stab at beating the Queen. It's a fairly simple process of linking up, and you can download Nestopia [URL="http://sourceforge.net/projects/nestopia/"]here[/URL]. I have the ROM for Dr. Mario and can send it to whoever needs it, even let you practice for a bit first too.

If you're up for a game (Baz........ come out come out wherever you are!) catch me online and let me know:

I am certainly interested in this challenge. Everyone I play can't come close to defeating me. I don't even know what it would be like to play a challenging individual. I would adore the experience.

I will prepare myself for this battle. I will have to get myself a controller to play with because I simply wouldn't be able to use my great dexterity as well with the keyboard.

yeah, it would definitely be easier with a controller but I have no idea where to get the needed device to plug it in.

if using the keyboard though, its tempting to use the arrow keys for direction, but I find it easier to set it up as follows:

left: S
up: E
right: F
down: D
select: G
start: H
b: J
a: K

That way you have the correct buttons on the correct hands at least and it feels slightly similar to a controller.

let me know when you're ready for the challenge ;)

I'll have to give this a go, sometime. I enjoy Dr. Mario quite a bit, and haven't found anyone to beat me yet.

I've always been able to beat MANY of your arcade scores, on more than several occasions a few years ago. (when I played under the name "majin_vegeta1," Ring up any memories?) Anyways, I'll give you a run for your money.



Posted by NES Queen

yes, you must feel so proud to be able to succumb to no life syndrom for longer periods of time than me.




Posted by scylla

Heh, what can I say. I'm always a sucker for a real challenge when it comes to gaming. :-D

Anyways, let me know when your ready to play.

I have been wanting to try netplay on an emlator. Unfortunately, I haven't played 'Dr. Mario' in about a decade.
My performance would be far less than satisfactory.

Tengen 'Tetris' on the other hand...

i usually get home by 5:30pm (NY time) during the week. scylla has caught me during my lunch break a few times but that changes daily so it would just be hit or miss.

Word of advice...

If you are going to challenge the NES Queen at Dr. Mario, please take the time to make sure you are actually "good" at the game (as to not look like a completely unskilled loser).

Just saying...




Posted by NES Queen
