Nice, I recently set a Galaga personal best at home on MAME. They have an Anniversary machine at a local pizza joint here, I don't recall the difficulty being significantly different from the original, unless maybe the fast shoot hack option was on. Galaga is funny, sometimes I struggle to get past level 10, and sometimes everything just flows smoothly. I'm never sure if it's the game or me.

Haha, in the zone. You're probably lucky the guy didn't whack you with a pizza peel and dump you outside the door. I remember in my days working retail, we locked the doors at closing time, but we had to wait until everyone left to actually close, and we weren't allowed to hustle anyone out the door. We would just stand behind the counter and glare at anyone who took more than a few minutes.
