What are some examples of people getting caught cheating in retro games? Pic related is the obvious example but what else is there?

Is there a story here?

>>7163972
That might be an obvious example but getting away with it for 30 years isn't a great example of being 'caught'. Meanwhile Steve Weibe never gets mentioned despite submitting some of his records using tampered boards and (rightly) being rejected.

There is 0 evidence that the boards were tampered

They came from a known enemy of Billy. Seriously, go watch any video of Roy Schildt on youtube and see if you can last for more than 10 seconds.
Knowing they came from him there is no way they could have reasonably assumed they were not tampered with.

Billy Mitchell supports Trump, thats the only reason he was accused of cheating.

>Getting high scores in video games
I've played Mario bros at least a million times and not once have I given a fuck about the score. Although, if I see sacks full of money in beat em ups I must pick them up.

He's been accused of being a lying, cheating prick way before this.

tl:dr The trick he claimed to be pulling off has an incredibly low chance of happening, plus the timing of the battle and sound effects were off, making it clear that he just used a levitation cheat code.

The video of Billy's Donkey Kong record contains graphic glitches that only appear when you use emulation.
Billy is a fraud.
Deal with it.

he also had essentially no real reaction to a trick that saves a lot of time and is really difficult to do

There is literally nothing Roy could have done that would humiliate Billy more than giving not only his biggest thread a new board to play with but not only not even tamper with it

this. i always find it fascinating that people only care about billy cheating when it essentially doesn't matter anymore. like prior to getting caught when was the last time he had the record in donkey kong or any game for that matter?

Because it's a (e-)celeb thread. The only one of those allowed here is Arino and sometimes AVGN.

It's like this guy's adult life was an experiment to be next CWC. Everything he did was absolutely drenched in social ineptitude and a core lack of distinction between good and bad attention
