Hm, and done in beat-em-up games, no less... Yeah, impressive indeed.

Mastering something like that to this degree is comparable to mastering a bullet-hell game (one of the nasty ones). It takes a ton of practice and dedication.

You certainly have more patience than I do though... I've never been able to tolerate beat-em-ups very much. Really the only category of arcade game I dont like much.

Did you have to pay for each game played? If so , how much do you think it cost you to get each record?
