If you have a psp or vita Activision hits on Psn for 10, more than the real copies, but quick

There was some discussion about controllers the other day. I've tried a lot of them and I find that this one is the best I've ever played with hands down.

Decided to join this challenge. Using a Sears 2800 and a Slik Stik.

Not my best game. I had hoped that racing RC cars would translate to the quick reflexes needed for this game. Apparently not.

Pretty happy with this score. I have not played this game in ages.

Managed to bump my score a tad bit higher, but not by much. I thought I had my Wico Baseball bat joystick somewhere but I couldn't find it. I was stuck using a Gemstik with a sticky button

I'm quickly realizing I should do a hardware review for the controllers on 2600. I've got close to 100 different controllers. >.<

Alright, the scores for Week 1 have been updated and tallied. I know that Addicted is waiting on carts, so I am trying to think of a fair way to include him, or any other members who might be interested in playing, in the competition.
Here are two options that I would like to get participant opinions on:
1. Extend Week 1 so that people can play Pitfall! and Kaboom! for another week. These would be played alongside of the Week 2 shmups.
or
2. Designate 2-3 days at the end of the month for a "Royal Rumble" where participants can play all of the games and improve their standings.
I would like for you guys to vote on these two options, or propose other ideas. I truly want to make this a fun community experience. Thanks.
Also.........
START PLAYING SPIDER FIGHTER AND SEAQUEST!!!!

Spider Fighter is the most requested cart, so I suspect most people will be out for that one.
I suggest Royal Rumble.

I can probably get most carts for under $5 locally, so please let me know if you need any carts that Shadow doesn't have.
Yeah, I'm leaning toward the Royal Rumble. That will give people a chance to gather games and attempt to climb the ladder for more points. Right now, I have the most to lose with a Royal Rumble, but think it will be exciting to even try and better my scores to defend position. I still want to hear what others think before setting it in stone though.

I know I don't have any extra copies of Spider Fighter, unfortunately - every copy in the area was torn to shreds.

Just send me a PM with the names of people looking for specific carts that you do not have and I can contact them to see if they want me to pick them up. I probably won't be able to get them to them before Week 2 is up, but I guess this kind of makes a Royal Rumble more appropriate.
