@@alexorear7807 Wow! That's awesome! I've played the actual PinBot once at a cousin's party. I owned the game before then so it was really REALLY cool. Sadly, I've never seen it since... so, 30 years or so.
Lol... it's funny with my brother and father growing up with this game, getting past a phase was such a HUGE deal. And to this day I can still my dad cursing at the ghost eating his ball.
You could have shaved a lot of time off by one hit opening pinbot with that first shot held on the left flipper. I hate they added all of the stupid obstacles on this game. Way to crush it though. This game can be brutal.
You are absolutely right on that one. Believe me, I try my best to get those skill shots every chance I get. This is one of my earlier runs. I get better and better at it, but still... not perfect yet. Thank you for the kind words. This game definitely will kick you in the rear at times.
so are the rules, you have to beat all levels and break 10 mill?? also where are you submitting this? thank you great game, been playing for a few months now.
The last level will "level up" that balls. The two ways to level it up is get to the last stage or make a solar trip in center and hitting the thingy on the right. If you haven't done the latter, the balls will turn to triangles in the last stage.
The game does have special credits of the people who made the game if you reach 10 million points (the point counter will wrap to all zeros). That is what is considered "the end" of the game. So, part of the requirements of the speedrun is reach the credits screen. So that means you must lose all of your lives after achieving 10 million points. In the 100% category (which is what I run) also has the requirement of looping through all of the stages back to the first. This brings interesting dynamics to the run. You don't want extra lives that will keep you away from the credits screen but still need to achieve all of the other requirements for it to be a valid run.

This was awesome to watch, glad I waited until the end. Congrats dude!
Thank you! It's always awesome to hear from folks that know of Pin-Bot.
@@jpop4lf I own the actual pinball machine of PinBot 😃 I have a friend who owns a High Speed machine which Rare also made for the NES

Watching this video brings back a lot of memories. A whole lot of Nostalgia.
Glad to hear that. Probably some good, some bad and some funny... like hearing my dad swear when the missiles broke his flippers.
I never beat this game past the 2nd phase. But i 100% loved the music of this game. Good job.

OH SHIT YOU GOT IT! Congratulations!
Wish I could have been there to see it, but I think I was long knocked out when you started.
Thanks a lot!
I was just streaming some attempts because I needed to stay up and had nothing to do. I didn't think I'd get it when no one was around.

Yes... the 100% category is all levels back to the first (at least), 10 mil (credits at least) and time stops at the credits screen.
Oh... speedruns.com
Is it just getting to the last level what changes the triangles to cubes??
The last level will "level up" that balls. The two ways to level it up is get to the last stage or make a solar trip in center and hitting the thingy on the right.
If you haven't done the latter, the balls will turn to triangles in the last stage.
yes.
Hiding things from me, I see.
NO, GO AWAY!
