Mario Bros. Arcade - No POW Challenge - 1,830,170

Here's a short highlight of my "accidental" world record on the "No POW Challenge" for arcade Mario Bros. This was recorded at Funspot Arcade in Weirs Beach, NH.

The rules for this challenge are simple. NEVER hit the POW button throughout the entire game. You can stand on it as a platform, but that's all. Even an accidental hit of the POW disqualifies your score.

Even though I have my own machine, I was on vacation and decided to give this game a shot. As you can see, it started out as a throwaway game, but it actually turned out quite well. This score beat the old record by almost a million points!

What is the the POW button ?

That square in the bottom-middle of the screen. It's a little blurry, but it actually says "POW" right on it. Normally, it could be used to flip all enemies at once, as well as remove all other threats, such as icicles and fireballs.

NICE, lovin' the Beverly Hills Cop theme. God I miss the 80's.
