Brought my trust old VCR with me this outing and recorded runs for both Metal Storm and Journey to Silius. Turned out I finished them much quicker than expected and had some extra time so I did second run for both and was able to do both games without using a continue. Hopefully that will make the videos more entertaining since you dont have to watch me die and redo the same areas over and over again. It also means the file size will be smaller and they will upload much quicker  . It does mean that I dont have a screen shot yet until I get a chance to move them onto my computer though. I'll try to get them uplaoded soon though so dont worry.
Had enough time to also give a test run on Blaster Master since its been years since I've touched it. Turns out I remembered where to go surprisingly well and made it to my least favorite boss (Stage 6, Bubble Crab) in about an hour. Since it went fairly smooth, up to the crab at least, I'll try to have a run recorded for Blaster Master in the next couple days. If anyone has any tips for beating that damn Crab I'm all ears.
Now for what you've all been waiting for.......the Air Fortress update. After spending what I assume to be around 5-6 hours playing Stage 6 I was finally able to conquer it!! Much to my intense pleasure, Stage 7 was very easy and I finished it on my second attempt. Stage 8 was a little tougher and took me a couple hours to figure out, but compared to Stage 6 it was quite tame. I was very happy to escape the final stage, but that joy quickly turned into projectile vomiting as it turns out there is a Ghosts 'n Goblins sytle second quest. I played the first area to see how different it was from the first go around. The layout of the Fortresses is identical to the first time around, they just add more and tougher baddies. So while I didnt get the True Ending, I am satisfied with calling this one beaten for the purpose of my challenge and I made sure to write down the code to continue on with the Second Quest if I ever want to revisit the game. The game was a lot harder than I initially thought, but I did really enjoy it.
I had to record several chunks of video (Stages 1-4, Stage 5, Stage 6-7, and Stage 8 ) seperately because of how many attempts some of the later stages took. I'm going to merge them into one video to upload to youtube. Let me know if you like it like that or if I should just keep them as 4 seperate videos in the future.
Here is the much anticipated Air Fortress Ending Screen:

PS - Can someone let me know how to embed a link to my youtube videos in the name of the games I've got listed above? I think that would be the best way to go about it.
As promised I was able to finish off the NES Contra games by completing Contra Force Tonight. The video will be quite dull starting on Mission 4, because man did I suck tonight. Had to redo it like 4 times for some reason. Oh well its over and done with now.
Next up to the plate was Power Blade. One of my all time favorite NES games. After getting quite frustrated with Contra Force I decided to be a bit cheap and use the bomb glitch on most of the bosses. Even so I screwed up big time on the last level by forgetting that I could restore my health. That made it a lot harder than it should have been since I had several health items I could have used at any time.
Power Blade 2 went a lot smoother. Almost had a no death run, but screwed up on one of the last bosses. Its a lot slower placed than the first one so it seemed painfully sluggish.
Gave Journey to Silius a go, but with enemy bullets being occasionally invisible it just wasnt going to happen. I might have to record this game on a VHS tape and then transfer it because I dont think I can beat it with a handicap like I did a few of the other games.
Tonights Screens are:
