This is my fully restored Nintendo Red Tent. I had all of the exterior parts professionally sandblasted and powdercoated.
A few notes on the restoration:
- The whole machine was fully disassembled, cleaned/polished, and then reassembled.
- Replaced the original levelers with caster wheels
-...
TL;DR: No real update because my work is done.

The game compatibility list is on github here:

My code as implemented won't work for Castlevania. Its 128k PRG ROM with a UNROM mapper. I'm not sure if any Vs. games ever used...
This is why I do all my work open source. When I get bored it allows someone else to pick it up and keep going with it.
I actually stopped some work in this area in light of these announcements. maybe I should pick it up again..
The 412 board MAME binary doesn't recognize that rom. I tried this a while ago with no success.
You might be able to assume the identity of another DK clone it supports by renaming files inside the zip and the zipfile. MAME will complain about CRC mismatches but it should load up the game.
I lack a duckhunt PPU in my collection so I'll be testing with other PPUs.
Additionally, I have a complete set of "working in MAME" ROMs split up and ready for burning. PM me and I can provide a link.
