Got a Donkey Kong Question here. The top part of the screen on my Donkey Kong machine looks a bit off. The words "High Score" have a bit of a gradient look to them. Also, the Jumpman lives icons look faded and not red. Anybody come across this before. The rest of the screen looks pretty decent to me. I've looked here but nothing matches my problem: http://www.brasington.org/arcade/tech/dk/

Any ideas? Is this a cap kit thing (I hope not)? A switch?

The game is playable and this doesn't bother me too much. However, if it's something simple, I'd like to fix it.

If the monitor hasn't been capped it's going to need to be anyway. Could be a degaussing or convergence issue as well.
 
my donkey kong did the same thing . i moved it to a diffent part of the game room and it looked fine. has to do with the earths magnetic field or something like that!
