>I beat [game] with 1CC!Unless you did it on an actual arcade using your own money, it didn't count. It's not the same without the pressure of playing with your own money. Endless free practice with home ports/emulator is like shooting free throws in your backyard instead of doing it in front of a crowd.
>>12549648You losers will find any reason to say someone didnt beat a game.
>>12549648This is true but only for 'competitive' things like speedruns. Nobody cares that you run faster than Usain Bolt. You have to do it during an official competition for it to count and matter.
So glad I'm a savestater/creditfeeder and I don't take arcadeslop seriously. This shit was designed to steal money from children as they ate pizza at birthday parties.
>>12549648What if i own the arcade machine and put my own quarters in?
>>12549669Lots of people would care if you had actual evidence you could run faster than him.
>>12549675Doesn't count if you recover the money later
>>12549671Same. I only savestate at the start of levels with console games but arcade games literally cheat, which has been PROVEN via various analyses of the code in multiple games, and therefore it's fair for you to cheat back with save states.
>>12549689But im the owner of the machine, just like those who owned arcades.
>>12549728God crafted arcade games to test your morality and you FAILED big time.
>>12549675>What if i own the arcade machine and put my own quarters in?Then you're down several thousand quarters
>>12549807But they paid taxes
>>12549809Give me a fair game and I'll play it fairly, otherwise I'm morally in the right to use game genie, action replay and even rewind.
>>12549843Sometimes life isn't fair, but you can't stoop down to the same level.
>>12549827So do i. I pay taxes for the property where my arcade (its multiple machines so it can be classified as an arcade) is kept.
>>12549671>This shit was designed to steal money from children as they ate pizza at birthday parties.brb going to CiCis to relive my youth
>>125496481CC means ONE CREDIT. If you used more than one you did not get the 1CC. You get exactly one shot to make it happen and you can never come back.
>>12549648I've considered it, and I have declared it a retarded thing to say, which has no real historical basis in the history of video gaming. Free play has been around as long as arcades have been around.
>>12549883So no one in existence has ever gotten a true 1cc.
have you played this?
>>12549648
>>12549648This is exactly why when the Neo Geo was made into a home console the games were limited to 4 credits.
>>12549728I never use savestates PERIOD. I actually like playing the game.
>>12549671>>12549728You didn't beat the game.
It's completely true but this REALLY hurts the egos of zoomers who LARP a lot
>>12550409Ok but the CPU didn't beat me either.
>>12549827This board is in such a state people are worrying about the tax status of somebody playing into beating a 30 year old video game.
lol a lot of you really derive your self worth from playing video games
>>12549648>Unless you did it on an actual arcade using your own money, it didn't count.true but you also can have never practiced on freeplay or emulator. in fact i would argue that it has not actually been possible to get a legit 1cc since emulation existed, and never will be a gone. you literally cant beat the game.
>>12549652This.The goalpost moves every time and it keeps getting more ridiculous.
>>12549652fpbp/thread
i have never seen an arcade machine in my life, do those even exist anymore?
>>12549895No, you don't need rote memorization to beat a game, with enough actual skill beating arcade games on your first try should be feasible.
