Best resource for practical game tips?
« on: May 02, 2008, 03:52:10 pm »
After discovering the Donkey Kong tips book I had as a child online here http://forum.arcadecontrols.com/index.php?topic=76983.0, it got me in the mood for getting practical tips for other games. I've run across the tips at arcade-history.com and the R.C.A.T.T. tips site (http://rcatt.classicgaming.gamespy.com/index.htm), but I wonder if there are any other great sources of tips out there? Game specific books that are available online (like the DK one) or sites with tips for many games like the 2 sites I mentioned - I'd be interested in anything.

  • Yeah, owning a MAME cab only leads to owning real ones. MAME just isn't good enough. It's a gateway drug.

I've found the forums on Twin Galaxies to hold a lot of good info, but don't know of any arcade dedicated tip sites myself.
