Oh! Speaking of glitches, did anyone else ever experience the game freezing up for a while in Dracula X during the Bat/Medusa/Frankenstein boss rush when you played it on a Duo? That would happen almost every time when my old room mate and I played Dracula X... Right after defeating the bat when the pentagram in the background starts to move, but before Medusa appeared, iirc. He claimed tapping on the Duo CD lid helped unfreeze it faster, but I don't know if he was right.
I had to tap my Duo to get some CD games to move on too when they'd get stuck. Not long after I got the system this started but, a technician at TTI had warned me that this came from me having the console sitting directly on the carpet while playing it.
After I took her advice and put it on a shelf, this happened a lot less often and happens less and less as time goes on. It's weird, almost as though it's healing it's self.
Sorry I wasn't around to tell you, thanks for pointing out how to get that super power-up in Blazing Lazers, I was so busy with trades and transactions that I thought this thread had died but, it's good to see it alive and kicking.
