Our sponsor Etcome is offering a new round of free stuff this month: we're going to be shipping out state-of-the-art Nintendo DS flashcards every week for 1 month, starting today.

What to do
This week, you're required to play Deep Trip, a new game we've just set up on our arcade. On January 18th, at 23:59 GMT, members with the top 5 scores will be receiving a free R4i Gold Plus Deluxe Edition, one of the best 3DS-compatible DS flashcarts available on the market.

Rules
You must be a registered member of GBAtemp to be able to play the game and save your score. Staff is also eligible. We have strong anti-cheat mechanisms in action and anyone trying to bypass them will be severely punished.

R4i Gold Plus Deluxe
This DS flashcard offers some of the most interesting features on the market:
- Nintendo 3DS compatible (won't play 3DS roms, at least not yet)
- Slow motion feature
- Real time save & guide features
- WiFi real-time firmware upgrade
- tons more, check them all out here

Many thanks to our sponsors Etcome for providing tons of gifts again!​

Hmmm.
I found a decent strategy that got me 170k...
But I had the worst luck of all time. Too lazy to play again tonight. (or...this morning, since it's nearly 2am)

@[member='shakirmoledina'] Try to make Combos, that's the key to this game. Currently, I am the top-scorer at 277719 but am sure it will be beaten in the future. When I made that score, I didn't lose even one combo and went upto X200 or something, I cannot recall exactly.

This game is addicting.

thanks for the advice, was able to reach around 187k
costello, who are the top 5? top 5 members or top 5 scores? some members are too good hence can take all top 5

umm also, i hope this doesnt indicate somehting bad, if a person uses cheatengine, will it make a difference eg. speedhack

The Arcade has anti cheating measures, so CheatEngine etc. should hopefully not be an issue. And I would assume it'll be the five top members, rather than one member winning all five flashcards.

Any user who uses a cheat engine will be banned from the arcade. At least that's what the arcade section says...

    If you just want pi for emulation no point when Anbernic releases new shit every two seconds

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    What's really cool about Pi's tho is you can have multiple SD cards with different OS on each SD card and change from say a gaming machine to a full fledged pc if wanted
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Plus all bios are set up and usually includes at least 128gbs or 64
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Yeah but if your main goal is just to play n64 and GameCube you can save about $50 and have the portability option
    +1
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    True, but on 2 monitors at 4k. Its just want you want really, to each they own.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    For a kids aspect Anbernic would be the better option they'd probably melt over the price on a good 4k display

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    For that texasroo guy, I'd recommend the Spell and speak as his first system.
    +1
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    So they buy a pi5 kit for about $150 and say a 28" 4k display probably looking around $400 total
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    They'll be getting in the territory of portable Pcs anyway
    +1
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Again you get what you pay for, its like buying a S series for $300 but its only 1440p native, if you want true 4k, gotta get the X model for $500. But yea you right, when moms buying it anyways, you gotta stay cheap.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    They could use HD out on their TV no real need for a monitor these days tbh the purists will disagree
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    I'm kind of phasing out on the need for wanting all these consoles cool to have but they just become dust build ups
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    I here ya there, I have too many myself, and have hard time letting them go, since most of mine I've modded at some point. Anymore I just play Switch on the go, seriesx at home.
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    ack my throat
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    I need to invest in some storage tots tbh
