Is this a DK control panel?

Got this in a warehouse the other day. Looks different than the DK control panels I've seen. Any info is appreciated.

It's definitely a Nintendo control panel with some sort of aftermarket overlay applied. Also the Joystick Ball top is not a Nintendo style Ball top. A picture of the underside will reveal more about the joystick.

Thanks everyone, should I use this overlay on my DK machine or is a Willis CPO less desirable?
 
I would think very little value. Maybe for crazy kong people(I don't know if CK has its own custom overlay), but not for DK people.

Your personal preference. You can get an original version, which is most desired for resale value. But if you can clean that one up to your liking, you can save that $$.

By the way, my machine came with that red joystick, too. Which is not original. But I kept it because I like it better.

Shouldn't you be the one to answer that question? It is your machine which one do you want.



I would prefer an original but if the Willis is desirable I wouldn't want to put it on the shelf and let it collect more dust. I know there are versions of the DK overlay like the red cab version (with no Nintendo of America) that are desirable to collectors.

Thanks for everyone's help
