(Ooooops, forgot the 'e') Thanks to Kenneth (kjeffery), I now have myself a new (to me) DK Cocktail table! Other than needing a cap kit, new wood grain banding, 2 glass top clips (anyone have any laying around?), and an interior cleaning, this thing is in great shape. Now I know a lot of people snub their noses at THIS game in THIS form, but I personally like this cabinet. It is the way I played Donkey Kong when I first saw it in 1982. The Melrose Arcade had at least 20 games in it, but I'll be damned if I can picture or remember very many of them. The ones I DO remember were a Space Wars on the East wall, and a DK Cocktail on the South wall. While my friend Ralph and I played Space Wars, you could always hear someone coining up and playing the DK Cocktail every 5 minutes or so, unless they were good, in which case you'd just hear that running sound and the hammer sound. The opening ditty and the 'death' sound will also be forever etched in my brain. Anyhoo, in my old friend Ralph's honor, this machine will sit near my Space Wars in Arcade Hades. Thanks again Kenneth. Pics:
