Would love a Nintendo Cabinet - full or empty for a project: I don't have a lot of money, but if anyone here knows of someone wanting to get rid of a Nintendo Cab, please reply or PM me. I am interesting in possibly building a D2K cabinet or maybe just use it for some other build. I love the...

Well, I certainly appreciate you trying. I think I also did some looking here and couldn't find it. Cheers regardless!!

Yeah. I originally wanted to consider doing the LCD if possible and keep the original monitor intact just in case I wanted to sell the arcade down the line. The cap kit thing may not be a big deal to do, but I do know my luck and my limits and I thought it best to have someone else more...

Very well. I thought about that, but since we are such a big society here, I figured someone might know or be able to share their wisdom.

The one I bought from a local guy here in VA is original to the hilt and it is orange. I dunno, going with a non standard color just seems like it might take something away from it...at least for me it would. Does anyone know the color codes for DK JR. Orange and where I can get it mixed up...

Ok, you made your point and that's fine. Question is: Why do you feel the need to be rude about it? I'm a new arcade owner with no experience with them. I'm not a seasoned veteran of the arcade world. This kind of thing may be easy for you to jump on and fix, but I feel it is a bit unfair to...

Dang, and I just received it yesterday. ;)

Why are you yelling? ;)

Well, it might be a fairly easy solution to a problem, but really I am not partial to LCD. If I were more of the adventurous type, I would order the cap kit and pray for the best. LOL. I wish I knew someone in Richmond, VA who could do a recap. Anyone?

Thanks for the input. I would only put the LCD in for me...if I ever sold it, I would sell it stock.

The question I have is this: I know it is possible to maybe put an LCD monitor in it, but where can I find complete information on how to git r done? I don't have the LCD monitor or any parts yet. Before I commit to doing any kind of monitor conversion, I need to know all the ins and outs as...

Let me also say that the monitor in the arcade game itself was crystal clear and it was like looking at a brand new game or something. The price I paid was the going rate at the time from all my research. I didn't tell him what I wanted to pay, he told he what it would cost. I'll defer to him...

I recently bought a refurbed Donkey Kong Arcade game from GarageArcade.com. Let me state for the record that Garage Arcade did a fine job for me. I was pleased with the DK machine I got. The customer service I experienced with them was great. I am not a rich collector or in the business, so I...

Thank you all for your overwhelming response to this question. It is good to know you guys are out there and are as passionate about these games as I am. It sounds like this is a well known glitch. I believe that when it happens I am indeed just sitting still with no hand on the joystick at...

Thanks, I'll ask my contact if he has another to test with and see if he is willing to help. By the way, I was just playing on it to see if I could find a pattern and of course, there seems to be no rhyme or reason, but it just doesn't always score me for a jump here or there over a barrel.
