      @GtBFilms I never could get good at 1942 either, but can clear 1943 on one play.

      System Config: Retropie 4.4 with full desktop, RPi 3B, 256gb SD, 5v 2.1A 5,200 mAH USB battery. EasyMSX controller mounted with Pimoroni Hyperpixel 4 (non touch). Also running 4.6 on a 4gb Pi 4 serving as my primary desktop computer now.

        Awesome!
        @obsidianspider please remember to carry over some of these great games to other ROW's.

        Now for some shmup action!
        I always like to hear if people run these in mame2003 or fbalpha?

          @AndersHP are there any noticeable difference between the two emulators with this particular game?

          Systems: Raspberry Pi 0/2/3 Model B+
          Os: RetroPie 4.5
          Frontend: Emulationstation & Attract Mode

            I've run it through fbneo. Seems to work fine.

              I guess i will run on any MAME-Version or FBAlpha/-Neo as it is from the early 80s and therefore does not need much performance.

              Only issue that i have with AdvanceMame is the lack of highsocre-saving.
              AdvanceMame only supports "Revision A", which seems to be not supoorted by highscore.dat.

                @AndersHP I try LR-MAME versions first , FBA/NEO second, and AdvMAME third. But that's just me.

                  @Brigane I don't know, I'm using lr-fbneo also.

                  What's the deal with the whistle-tune in the beginning of this game?
                  Is it some kind of WW2 reference, that I don't get? :)

                    @AndersHP I didn't even realize it was a song. Just kept wondering what the annoying chirping sound was. Hahaha

                        After a lot of practice - I don't play a lot of shmups - I got a lucky break and reached the Marshall Islands. Previous hiscore was the 3rd (I used 1 save state for #2, so that doesn't count).

                          @mitu wow for not playing shumps that's really good! My top scores have been trash so far so I haven't had anything worth posting yet.

                            I'd love to devote more time in the evenings to chase these high scores. Nice work!

                              I tried to improve the score, but didn't get further than stage 5, this time with 154490 as hiscore.
