Well. I wiped my StB score.DAT a few days ago. Just cleared the game last night, and wow, my shot counts were way different than last time. Top five shot counts:
#1. 8-7 (448 shots)
#2. 10-4 (292 shots)
#3. 9-6 (238 shots)
#4. 9-5 (192 shots)
#5. 5-5 (174 shots)
This was way different from last time. 10-4 and 10-8 didn't make me want to cry, 9-6 actually took longer than it did last time I cleared it, nothing in the EX-Stage took me over fifty shots to clear (EX-8 took me well over a thousand shots to clear my first runthrough of the game)...
Oh well, StB is too fun to dislike. Now to restart DS!
