Something in another thread just reminded me...
I completed this on the NES (real cartridge- not an emulator) last week, for the first time (I've been playing Marble Madness in its various guises for close to 15 years...) and even had 10 seconds left on the clock. Have it!

nah it's ok - I'm pretty sure it was a bug in the actual game I got. Big shame tho!

Good point actually- maybe I should look at the nes version- the levels may be the same, but that one level could be fixed...

Ever played the nes-game deja vu? Realy cool adventure similar to the lucasarts games(monkey island etc). I think i had a swedish version to. Realy cool but it was imposlible to finish it!! At some point you just couldn't go any further, just when the sectet was about to be revealed. And heard other people say the same think, anyone else here that where as pissed as i where?

I've never heard of that- there are quite a few games you can't finish due to bugs. X-Com: TFTD on the PC is one of them :)

He he, I completed this with 20 seconds to spare at the weekend!
Nearly managed it with 24, but took a tumble :)

I bought it recently. I played it a long time ago and beat it a few times, but now I havn't re-beaten it yet because of that very last part where the floor shifts. A fun simple little game is micromachines too. Actually a REALLY challenging great game is street fighter 2010 (has nothing to do with the popular street fighter series). I actually beat the bastard too. And the music is awesome.

I don't know about the PSX version- there is an end sequence, it's just due to a bug in the PC one you can't finish the last level. I work with a guy who worked as a playtester on it. He said they got so many complaints about it...

I think Marble Madness has the best 1st stage music ever.

The thing that really helps is finding out that whenever you do a flip in the air you are invincible, even if you don't have the flip shield (that sounded geeky). I wonder if milton bradley made more videogames. I think they made toys where you hook weird pathways together to build a fun route for a marble to take going from the top to the bottom.
