The man's a wizard. Knows the back end, the history, and beats the games like a boss.

The algorithm is working double time heading into PinFest 2023. Awesome machine and good to see jovial Todd.

We were lucky to have one of those with the "Ladder Cheat" in it when I was a kid at one of the local arcades. You could simply play forever... but after a while it got old... and we moved on. Still one of the greats from the past! Great job on the rebuild... it looks fantastic! :)

I acquired one of these exact same units and just had the monitor fixed. It is in original case and working. We are going to have a blast playing it.

It seems that way!

Great video, about 10 years ago I re-painted my DK cabinet the same blue that my machine came with, but looking at yours I wish I had done the same red. My monitor needs help too!

That cab is a thing of beauty! and i never knew about that cheat either just so cool. : )

@pinballdan 13 лет назад

Those early boards had that cool walking sound vs. the later 2 board system...

@Suppabad82 The 24 volts ONLY is needed for the coin meter. If you must have a coin meter, it can be switched out with a 12 or 6 volt volt meter (used on almost every other arcade game made) and then power it with the 5 or 12 volt line! Todd

the red cabinet is from 2001 but the PCB Is From 1981

Very nice cab.

@WinrichNaujoks 4 года назад

And I just replaced the modern switching power supply with an old original one, because I could never get the voltages right with a new one. When +5V was good, -5V was at -4.7V, or when -5V was good, +5V was way higher, +5.3V. The +12V was also all over the place. I tried 3 PSUs, and it was the same with all of them.

yes...we find the megatouch style power supplies work better for the nintendo games

I have a question, is there an easy way to get the piece that fits above the control panel and holds in teh bezel? I'm building a red Donkey Kong cab from scratch and that piece seems to be the one tricky part I'm struggling with . Any help would be appreciate. Also, any idea where i can get the "instructions" sticker that goes on that piece as well.

@64jcl 12 лет назад

Would you say the red in the word "Donkey Kong" on the side art is the same colour of the cabinet? Or perhaps the red on the Control Panel? I am trying to figure out exactly what red I should use for a scratch build bartop replica. :) - BTW great restoration work!

@mcrosco1 sounds more like dunkee kung to me... lol

@lesliecollins8826 12 лет назад

hey tood how much do you like to get for that cobracoomand in the cliffhanger cab

@ShaneBolda 10 лет назад

im proud to say that i just got one of these... early tkg3 four board stack, tkg2 10377 radar scope converted.. :))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))) drove from FL to TN and back for it!

@tntamusements 10 лет назад

Shane Bolda A great collectible, especially nowadays!

@ShaneBolda 10 лет назад

THANKS! I'll probably be ordering cap kits from Bob Roberts, firstly to redo the audio amplifier, i got a bad hum... Otherwise its great! Also,I spoke with Todd briefly today on the phone regarding out of state warranty service logistics and also talked about pins, special order deposits, etc... Maybe that was you, but if not, please thank him for taking the time! Anyway, take care and maybe I'll find something with you guys within the year...

@JamBurglar 10 лет назад

Shane Bolda That hum will not go away entirely. Recapping the audio board may improve it, but it will always be there due to the design.

@ShaneBolda 10 лет назад

I know... That's ok... It's really loud right now...

@mr.breadNwater 9 лет назад

nice video, just what I was looking for. I'm picking up a Red DK machine this weekend. Do you know where I can pick up the side decals? Any help is appreciated.

@tntamusements 9 лет назад

+Steven Paniagua Arcade Shops sells them!

@mr.breadNwater 9 лет назад

+TNT Amusements Inc is there a website for them? I found a couple on ebay, I'm sure the quality on 1 is better than the other, twice the cost.

@RobertRings 11 лет назад

It's DONKEY KONG. Not DUNKY KUNG.

@adamcosta4610 5 лет назад

What is the name of the red paint code?

@ToiletPunisher38 10 лет назад

I also have a 4 board but its a cock tail. can you use a stitching power supply with it?

@tntamusements 10 лет назад

yes...you can easily install a switcher! SOme uprights used the 4 board system. It was designed because the Donkey Kong cocktails had no room for the 2 board system. Extra Note: All DK Jr and DK 3 games were made larger (with alrger monitors too) and take the 2 board system!

@ToiletPunisher38 10 лет назад

Thanks guys, last question. Do you have a link to a power switcher you prefer? and do you know of a Pac Man power switcher that would work for that board? I have an all original and i dont know whether to convert jamma or buy a new power supply to help control the power to the board and monitor.
