Starting at the 74K bonus level is not starting from the beginning ( See screen that shows you selecting that level to start at attached below - and since the video is cut and pasted in several places who knows what level other games are started at since they are not shown - Besides not even being able to see the score increment during play due to the poor viewing angle and recording. ANd sure it will drop you bac a level or 2 if you do not finish a new level with a restart but after playing for as you said 30 minutes or so it's pretty easy to get a few more levels of bonus in to start at over 100K in bonus so even a bad quality controller can get past a single level with all the lives given in a game.

I apologize for the crazy bad video, I didn't know the screen would be that blue from that angle.
Also, as I said, it was hard even getting that footage in a public store in a mall, while I only had
so much time to play.
I don't understand why people think the game is unplayable, or that the dial is broken.
It just doesn't matter. High level gameplay is possible, whether I continued or not is a moot point.
As I said, I haven't seen anyone else even bother trying to play the game anywhere near the red
levels, except for the one person at Atariage, but he had an a washer+loosening spinner mod on his machine.
You still need skill even when continuing.
No, I didn't bother recording from the very beginning which is where I started to get through the levels.
I still had to play at least 5 of the levels starting from level 15 through to 20 to get the final score.
That's all I have to say, until I can go back, and figure out a way to record properly, with more time,
maybe the store workers will let me do it, if I explain it to them.
Or maybe they'll kick me out for loitering. haha

Man it's sad that you are trying to justify the cheap as clicker (I refuse to call it a spinner anymore because it won't spin) on these machines. If you can't get the controls to work as intended then it's a fail. Full stop, do not pass go, do not collect $200.

dude, are you kidding? i'm the one that will be the first in line to replace it.
there are many clueless people out there that wouldn't know the first place to start
if they wanted to fix it.
there are also cheap people out there that can't afford quality parts.
what do you suggest they do, give up, and not play it.
i'm just saying IT CAN BE DONE, not that IT SHOULD BE DONE.

It *feels* like you're saying it doesn't need to be done, even though it does. Everyone already know it can be done.
