Highscore challenge 7 | PUZZLE BOBBLE (ACA NEOGEO on NSW, XB1, PS4)
Rules: HIGH SCORE MODE
Puzzle Bobble (also known as Bust-a-Move in North America) first released in arcades in Japan before making it's way over to the Neo Geo just 6 months after. The characters and theme of the game is based on the 1986 arcade game Bubble Bobble. The game has as interessting score system that makes for perfect high score chasing. If you simply pop the bubbles you get 10 points each. However, dropped bubbles (that were hanging from the popped bubbles) double in score for each dropped bubble. So 20 for one, 40 for two etc. This can ramp up very quickly. At the end of each round bonus points are awarded for completing a round quickly. Enjoy this easy to learn, hard to master shooter puzzle game!

Highscore challenge 8 | ALPHA MISSION (SNK 40th Anniversary Collection on NSW)
Rules: ARCADE (default settings) | EASY | 3 LIVES | 50K 100K
Originally released in arcades in 1985, the game was later ported to the NES/FAMICON in 1987. In Japan it got released under the name ASO: Armored Scrum Object. It also spawned a sequel in 1991. For this challenge we will take control over the SYD fighter and take down the deadly fleet of the Seven Star Allicance. The fate of the Earth rests in your hands! Armor is spread out through the stage and you'll need three of them to complete your armor. Be sure to collect pieces from the same set. Different tiles give you extra speed, bonus points, lasers, missles, etc. Orange ones power your ship down, so avoid those. This first boss is extremely tricky and will prove a serious challenge, so some perserverance is needed for this one. And be sure to not hit that rewind button... we will know if you did
