retrohead has updated Shooting Watch DS to v2.0. A lot more work has gone into this version. We now have a menu screen where all the modes can be selected. The Slot modes have been updated and include sound effects. Coins won from either slot mode or shooting mode can now be used to buy items from the shop in the Extras menu. We also included a Wi-Fi leader board that lets you upload your high score to the Home Page, which myself and retrohead have been designing an coding for the last few days.

Please do not host this game anywhere else. we would rather you linked to the download section at the Official Home Pagethanks.
I just have to mention this as it has already cropped up a few times already. This relates to transferring your scores over WiFi:
Known Issue
There are no major problems with the game at all. Sometimes you may experience connection problems when using the WiFi Transfer mode and the game may not get past the connecting screen. In this case, reboot your DS and try connecting before entering any of the other menus. If the problem still persists then the problem must lie within your DS connection configuration.
So if your DS appears to freeze while trying to transfer your score, just reboot the DS and try again before entering any other menu. After this you should have no further problems transferring. Sorry I tried to get rid of it but I really couldn't get it any better than it is.
i hope you have fun with this anyway and I look forward to seeing your scores on the board. A few are starting to appear already but triforce is just owning it at the moment!
It's all about technique, the best way i can explain it is like this:
You know when you tense up your head so hard that it shakes or vibrates. Well try doing that with your arm. My finger is kinda vibrating over the button rather than pressing it, its a technique i used as a kid on oldschool shooting games lol.
Btw i saw your score uploaded on the site, nice one. You were only 1 press away from exploding the melon
Lol once I just finished doing my homework using Shootingwatch for my homework (The stop watch mode!) and right after there is another verson of ShootingWatch! It's a miracle if I ever need this again! THX to the creator for helping me finish my crap! Im ganna so see now what the new verson is like! I bet it's great .
EDIT: Triforce, I liked your before avatar and signature better. Your before avatar was better about that little kid licking the thing. I also kinda liked the song before on your signature! . Don't hate me for saying this but it's just to say that Im not use to the one you are using now.
EDIT2: WTF!!! I gatta strain my fingers to have a little arcade fake money game? I only get like 1 coin for braking my fingers ten times on the f***ing button! V1 you could change icons instead of buying them and changing it from the shop I guess but from now on im using V1 until I find a better way to break the d*** melon! I also kinda take back what I said about from my first text obove and obove: I bet it's great .<<<<<<<<<<< I bet Ill kill my slef trying to get 20 coins !!! I dont hate this game but its just that it got from taking Metroid Prime hunter noob at the begginging and taking him to the final boss and if he loses he will never die in real life! Not exacly what im saying but I just dont like straining my finger. I guess I talked alot since im doing this late. srry
