Steve & Don, if you insist… on the Silly Race, after squashing all the baby enemies, go back down the ramps to your starting place, then back up. The baby whatevers will be back. You don't have to go all the way back to the start, just to the bottom floor is sufficient. I died a lot doing this, but at endgame time you're only docked for up to 20 deaths, so that's -20,000. You can easily end the game with 99 seconds for +99,000, and of course you get points for all those squashings, so you can essentially get an infinite score (limited only by your patience/endurance). Going down and up the ramps takes almost all of the time you gain from the squashings, though, so you have to be agile about it or you'll run out of time… There's an MM machine at the Santa Cruz Boardwalk arcade. Why would they convert all the copies of a really successful video game? Or wasn't MM successful? I know it was popular, but it could have been poorly distributed or something…? – Bela
