Actually, an "attract mode sound: Y/N" field would be a great think to add to KLOV game entries.
Arcade Games with Sound or Music in Attract Mode

It should say "Coin Detected in Pocket" when the Insert Coin graphic comes up on the bottom of the screen after every cycle IIRC.

Guess you have me on ignore today.
I don't have nor have I ever wanted the D2K kit. I mean the original, un-enhanced DK.

Satan's Hollow? Burgertime?
Hey, Qbert has sounds in attract mode.

Of my games, D2K, Major Havoc, and Star Wars Trilogy. My pins also have attract sounds.
"DK if you have the D2K/HSS kit" implies that it does not if you don't have the kit. (another smiley since I know you love 'em).
Don't want D2K? What's wrong with you? (yet another)

I believe Satan's Hollow sounds can be enabled like Trons can be... you have to remove a resistor from the mute circuit. It works on Tron, same board... so should work the same.
If only someone would write something add sounds to Pac/MsPac...
Add Pole Position to the list (if it wasn't already mentioned... I just skimmed the list). Route 16 and Crazy Kong also.

Listen you, I want attract mode sounds in the original DK without having to install any made-up game kit. Is that too much to ask? I guess so.

FWIW, I was leery of D2K... but after playing it once, I was hooked. But, I agree... there are so many games I'd love to have someone write attract mode sounds chips for.
Looking at my Tapper manual, supposedly it has sounds in attract mode. I'll check that out tonight because I have never heard it before.

Pole Position, yes you are correct. As to the Satan's Hollow dilemma, removing resistors from working boards scares and confuses me. I wish it was just a dip setting.
Why yes, it is!

It's not that bad, it's one resistor. You could pull one end up and put a switch on it to have a toggle if you wanted. I haven't done it to mine yet (only because I know that Tron attract mode sounds would get really old, really quick), but for anyone that wants to give it a shot, it's R135.

That really sucks. DKJR would be cool with attract mode sounds too. Wonder if I could isolate specific game sounds from those ambiance CD's, record them to loop cassettes, then install cassette players in all my games running off the 12V line. Wow, what a lot of work.
Yeah, but just think of the fortune you'll make off of selling those loop cassettes to your fellow hobbyists!
That does sound like a lot of work. I'm with ShanMan on this one. You should just get the HS Save Kits.

Wait a minute, just the HSS kits give you attract sounds? All of the Ninty ones?

Yeah I mentioned that in the first post of the thread. I hate to say it but it gets quite annoying too.
