4. Hardest. Game. EVER.
Did anyone ever make it past level three?

5. I could get to level 4, but only rarely.
The Sinistar would get built in a matter of seconds on that level so there was really no way to collect enough bombs to kill it.

6. I had that problem on level TWO!!!
Here I am, dodging those annoying bug-like ships and those mobile turrets, feeling confident, when along comes Sinistar and WHAM. It's over. Naturally, as soon as he comes on screen, I start hurling siniboms at him in a panic, so when I lose the ship, I start with no bombs. And the Sinistar is still functional.
Sheesh. I loved Williams for a lot of the games they put out (they were tops in pinball) but that game ticked me off to no end.

I still played it any chance I could get. Even more so now that I have it on MAME. :) And I still suck at it.

7. Me too... But, only by the skin of my teeth.
I'd be mining crystals like mad... Trying to find a rich
asteroid.

If it didn't turn out at least 5... I'd move on and not
even mess with it.

Then I'd go find Sinistar and dump my load.

I wonder how many levels that game really had.
