This is my best recorded score in Robotron. Achieved in one hour and 37 minutes. Notice that game waves (levels) roll back after 99, so I rolled them twice. I played my best on the Grunts (highlights:59,99,139,219) and Tank Waves (highlights:122,172,207,227). I never had a perfect Brain Wave although I had a few close ones (75,135,190,195). Ironically, my worst waves were also mostly Grunt waves 109,119,229. Gameplay fatigue started around waves 170-180 and the first time I noticed fewer than 7 lives was on wave 191. From there, it was mostly downhill with just a few highlights (201-204,211,218).
Robotron is an intense experience all the way; there are periods where you feel almost invincible, in a zone, and then there are slumps where nothing seems to go right and start bleeding out lives.

OMG, LOVE THIS! I can't remember the name of the gameroom at the corner of Kempwood and Campbell in Houston, but I was a regular back in the early 80s. I was ON FIRE one afternoon on my favorite game, Robotron2084. My one quarter lasted me way past an hour. I had 6.2 Million points when my Dad showed up and grabbed me, saying I better get my azz home, 'cause dinner was ready. I had 7+ (who knows how many?!) lives in reserve, and I had to walk away from the machine. Never before or since did I come close to matching that game. The brains couldn't shoot me, I moved like Neo to dodge their bullets! It was one of just a few times in my life I experienced being "IN THE ZONE" and it's awesome!

Congrats on a great game! I'm in the process of finishing my own machine, Robotron is the best of the best. Growing up, my family had a deli, and we always had 3 arcade machines set up. I got to play for free (we painted the quarters red and they gave those back, as many as I cared to paint) and I used to play this game half the night after we closed. People would see me through the window playing and be banging on the glass to get me to open up to sell them beer. I went thru a lot of (red) quarters playing this beast. I was seriously pissed when they took this out and brought in Sinistar.

Aah, the memories. I once got a score of around just slightly under 10 million in Robotron, in the early 80's. I let the game run out by letting all my lives die to keep under 10 million as we were not sure if it would roll over to 0 after that. I still had the whole top screen filled with lives when approaching that. It lasted hours, so I had friends bring me pizza and even was able to take a bathroom break when I had accumulated many lives.

Played a sporty Stargate and Defender as well. Millipede-killed it. Centipede-killed me. Tempest was probably my best game and I made many dollars (and quarters😂) at Aladdin’s Castle back in the day. Won a Tron tourney at 11 years old and the prize was a silver token that went through the machines and triggered the counter but came back. Don’t know how they did that. Would always watch them open the games and mess with the mechanism, but was too young to care.
