I've opened a Youtube channel today:

https://www.youtube.com/user/eojx9999/

The purpose of this channel is to archive all of the old videos I've accumulated over the years, many of which are no longer available anywhere online. This includes strategy videos, location test videos, and other related videos.

I am happy to upload any other content donated by members here, including recent replays of your own high score runs.

UPDATE (January 2021): I am now also uploading high-scoring replays from the Japanese Xbox Live leaderboards, as well as my own replays.

Video #2 is an excellent stage 1 pattern in Mushihimesama Futari Ver 1.5's Maniac Mode, with Abnormal Reco, by the player TSUMANNE. Over 50 million points are had by the end of the stage.

Looking forward to this! It's always welcome to have more resources for superplays, strategy, etc. :righton:

Great! I'm hoping a lot of people will enjoy this. I have a TON of stuff (like, hundreds of videos), much of which is not yet available on youtube.

I have the infamous "Cock Laser" DFK loke test video if you want it.

Made by that long haired hippie GaijinPunch. I should still have some stuff like Mushi Blue and the special Ketsui version if you want.

EOJ

Thanks for that, I'll upload it. I think I have the other ones, though I'd have to check.

Video #13 is up, after a long hiatus!

https://youtu.be/a03D5spqnRM

Deathsmiles Mega Black Label (PCB) - Rosa - 7,705,970,504

Unknown player.

This is the highest scoring replay I've found thus far with Rosa on the original PCB. This player gets over 3 billion in the first six stages with two Lv2 stages and only one Lv999 stage. It's very difficult to find any good videos with Rosa, so this one is great to have.

Thanks for the upload! Will add to my list, much appreciated! :righton:

Some exciting news for the New Year! I bought an Elgato HD 60 S capture device. With this, I will begin to record and upload lots of high-scoring replays from the Japanese Xbox Live leaderboards. I will also finally be able to record and upload my own X360 replays (and potentially PCB scores too -- we'll see!).

The first video is a special one, 1.69 trillion in DFK BL with B-Strong, by SYU! This is by far the highest-scoring replay for this ship-type available anywhere, and just a tiny bit below the WR on the PCB. I recorded it at 1080p and 60fps, but I'm not sure how many others I will do at this high quality because the file size is nearly 7GB and it took a couple hours to upload and process. Probably will switch to 720p and 30fps in the future.

Anyway, enjoy! And subscribe to my youtube channel if you want keep up to date on the latest CAVE STG videos.  :righton:

1.33 trillion with C-Power in DFK BL, by ATT. Like before, this is the highest scoring replay available with this ship type.

This is a beautiful project! Thanks a lot for doing this! :righton: Who knows for how long the 360 leaderboards will stay online...

FYI some people over at the shmups wiki are doing something similar: https://shmups.wiki/library/Archival_Efforts

Maybe this can save you some work or helps to calibrate your focus. A second mirror surely doesn't hurt either!

Waiting eagerly for your next upload.

Thanks for that link. I'll check it and make sure not to record/upload anything already there. I plan to upload a new replay nearly every day (well, for the near future at least).

I also have a lot of good replays saved on my X360 that are no longer on the leaderboards, so those will be good to upload.

I've found 720p/60fps to be the best for high quality with a manageable file size, so all the replays from here on out will be in that format.

Thanks for bringing this back!  :righton: I remember when the PS4 came out with the Share button and had the functionality to upload stuff to YT, my first thought was about replays of games like these. But yeah, that Elgato HD60 is a great tool, I just never had the patience to rip videos to upload anywhere.

It's also a bummer that the leaderboard-replay feature has been absent from a lot of the Cave ports. It was always nice to see "1sissy" (as the French say) style play where someone may be good enough to beat a game but not superplay. Those kinds of strategies have often really helped me understand the intermediate points of a game, which in turn helps me appreciate those badass replays by the ultra-talented players even more.

EOJ

Cheers, glad to hear you're enjoying the content on my youtube channel. Much more to come!

Speaking of that, here's today's video:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NcJhivFQ0Jo

It's a 789bil C-Strong 2-ALL in DFK 1.5 (Ura route), by KJU. This is the highest-scoring replay with this ship type on the leaderboards.

DFK BL B-Bomb, Autobomb ON, 389bil Hibachi-ALL (JP XBL DLC leaderboards replay):

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DRJdXFIjPwY

This is actually a very cool and useful video. It's hard to find any decent-scoring videos with Autobomb-ON, and this one even includes the Hibachi fight.

DFK 1.5 - A-Strong - 383bil - Ura 2-ALL

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uAiGftWvYZ8

Best replay on the JP leaderboards for this ship type. A nice 334 bil first loop, and a no-miss until the middle of 2-5.
