That is one spartan table! Nothing particularly exciting happens, so I give it a Meh for entertainment.
Which is a shame, because the idea of an amorphous pinball table is an interesting one with a lot of potential. And yet it turned out to be just a series of targets.

Still, I was playing Super Mario Bros. 3. How to do that if I am done if Bowser was defeated?
In a normal game (that doesn't abuse glitches), the last action for SMB 3 is pressing up to enter the door after Bowser dies. That would be your last input. There shouldn't be any empty frames after that input.
Or Spikestuff will rip your head off

Fun little run for a fun little game. However, I personally feel slight iffy about the difficulty choice. I agree that hard would make the game too tedious for many reasons - you also forgot to mention that the default weapon is nerfed - but easy is, well, easy. I think Normal would be a good compromise.
Also, are you aware of the secret moves Snake has at his disposal? These include brief invulnerability, launching some small fireballs, and firing off a huge plasma bolt.I wonder if any of those could save some time.

SNES/NES/PS1/N64 (dpad) etc. all have a free pass for a simple reason.
They're not analog controls, this is a stick, represented by an analog movement.
The system is being modified in a way where it's literally abusing everything that's not meant to be physically possible.
You may be conflating two things here: The N64 analogue stick and the arcade joystick. Just because the former resembles the latter does not mean they function the same way. The N64 and other such systems use a couple of potentiometers in order to simulate a whole range of values - but only two at a time - whereas many arcade joysticks use four simple mechanical contacts, so aesthetically, it resembles an analogue stick but functions like a digital dpad.

Your approach is interesting (and different from the usual method). However, I'm not exactly sure how you deduce that the angle between AB and AC is 36°, and that the angle between CB and CF is half of that. Also, I'm not sure how you deduce that ABG is isosceles.
Basic geometry. Observe that triangle ABC is isocolese, and go from there. Two things to keep in mind are that if a triangle is isocolese, then the angles at the base are equal, and if two angles in a triangle are equal, then the triangle is isoceles.

Certainly a vault run. I guess the next logical step would be 100% where you free all your soldiers while completely genociding the enemy with no deaths of your own.

I guess they took it down since it's no longer relevant.
Although it was more of the same, for reasons I can't quite identify I actually left there feeling dirty and a little violated. I'm sure the dude wandering around with a body pillow depicting Daring Do bondage didn't help, though.
