  1. DKjr level progression

    Is there a Krazy Kong Jr? I know one of the differences between DK and KK was the level progression. In DK the progression includes multiple barrels per level (eventually), In KK it didn't (repeated 1-2-3-4).
  2. Let's play Name That Game!

    Cool. Thanks, guys. Any info on that Mr. Do! marquee? It is nothing like the one I've seen on klov and elsewhere.
  3. Let's play Name That Game!

    I looked at a Mr. Do! for sale yesterday in a conversion cab. The seller did not know what the original cab was, and I don't recognize the bezel art. The cabinet itself is completely painted black and I could find no identifying plates or other clues inside or out. The Mr Do! marquee is not the...
  4. Restaurants you went to before or after the arcade

    Re: Reataurants you went to before or after the ar Back in the Day there was an arcade in Northville, MI called The Beehive. It had a nice selection of games (Bosconian is the one I remember playing the most there) and was in the same strip mall as a Little Ceasar's restaurant. My buddy and I...
  5. Oh really now!!!$10,000,000 profit in 1st year??

    Back in the early nineties I used to work with a group of guys and on breaks and after work we would play 'wally pong'. It was played on a ping pong table in a small enclosed room (about 3 feet of space on the sides and maybe 10 feet on each end). Teams of two would compete. You had three hits...
  6. How can you pass this up???

    http://grandrapids.craigslist.org/tag/660756719.html Hell, at that price I'll take three!
  7. Ebay vs. Craiglist lawsuit?

    Ebay filed the suit because they own a percentage. Here is the story. Seems CL did something (unspecified) that eBay claims diluted their 28% ownership.
  8. How good was the AVERAGE Pac-Man player

    Pac Man was one of the first games that I played a lot. I was decent - better than most casual players - and could get up to the keys most of the time. Even though it was fairly well known about the existence of patterns at the height of Pac's popularity, few bothered to memorize them. Many of...
  9. Anyone in town want a route? :P

    How does a 200 game route count as passive income? Wouldn't there be a fair amount of work to be done with maintenance, not to mention just the time to make 70 pickups.
  10. Another hellcade

    Along these lines, as far as Hellcade entries go, this is pretty tame. In a post in the thread that the picture came from the kid said the monitor and power supply were long gone. As long as they didn't just dump the PCB, its not too bad - they at least left the cabinet in a very nice...
  11. Things wifes say.......

    Lucky for her...
  12. Wow! A Crazy Climber for $800, so far.

    Without specifically endorsing shill bidding (I'm not sure if I think it is ok or not), I will say that if you are willing to pay your maximum bid, then that *is* market value - by definition.
  13. Track and Field cheat

    I tried the pounding and finger-flicking, but I was never really good at it. There is (was?) some cheat in the game that allowed you to get a perfect 0:00 time in the hurdles. I saw this time on several machines back in the day. I tried a couple obvious things, but I never actually saw anyone...
  14. Exidy Venture

    As long as this is turning into a ask-me-about-Venture thread: Does the game have an end? The grid of treasures (initially filled with ?s) seems to imply that it does. What happens when this grid is filled?
  15. Replacing power cord for DK - any caveats?

    The power cord on my recently acquired and re-capped Donkey Kong is frayed at a couple of spots, so I am replacing it. Any thing specific I should be cautious of? It seems pretty straight forward, but as a newbie to VG repair I thought I'd ask first. Thanks.
  16. dkII

    Out of curiosity, would I be correct in assuming that DKII uses enough of the original DK engine that there is still a kill screen on level 22? Can anyone say "King of Kong II - The Sequel"?
  17. Michigan meetup?

    WTF is Dr BingenPurge?
  18. DK Monitor and Sound Fixed!

    I was hoping someone would notice! That is my best score in about 20 years. I am quite impressed with anyone's ability to get to level 22 (kill screen). I can't image how it can be done, since it seems there are so many ways to get screwed randomly by things like thrown barrels or...
