Looking at ChanceKJ's DK thread made me wonder if there is a list of all the games that used the DK/Nintendo style cabinet somewhere? My google foo has not turned up one. :dunno Someday I wouldn't mind building a Nintendo style cab that played all the possible games. |

The reason that doesn't really shake is the difference between horizontal and vertical games. That doesn't mean you couldn't do it though. |

Several related posts/threads. --- Quote from: ChanceKJ on November 27, 2014, 07:02:58 pm ---I'm doing a little research and I'm trying to figure out what colours all the classic Nintendo cabs were. I was wondering if there were any that I missed? Both actual production ones, and popular non-production ones like DIIK (DK2). -Radar Scope - Red -DK - Red or blue -DK jr - orange -DK 3 - Red -Popey - Blue -Mario Bro. - Blue or Orange -FixIt Felix - Light blue Fan Built -DK 2 - Dark Blue -DK Pauline - Pink/White --- End quote --- --- Quote from: Crowquill on June 24, 2006, 09:38:51 pm ---While I don't pretend to be an expert, I thought I'd try to sum up what I know in my limited experience with these cabs. Most I verified with scans of the original flyers (probably the most official source on the 'net). I've only included single-monitor cabs. Radar Scope - Red Donkey Kong - Typically Blue. The trivia for Radar Scope on KLOV states that out of the 3000 made, 2000 of them were converted to DK (at the factory). Popeye - Blue (although I'm sure I've seen some in orange). Donkey Kong Junior - Orange DK3 and Mario Bros kits - sold as conversion kits for the previous games. Could be any color Mario Bros Dedicated - Orange widebody cabinet Vs Unisystem Dedicated- Grey cabinet, modified design from the previous cabs (no speaker grille on front, different coin door) Vs Unisystem Conversion - conversion kits for DK, DK jr, and Popeye. Playchoice-10 kit - Converts vs. unisystem to PC-10. The flyer shows the cabinet in black, though. R-type - Appears to be the same cab as Unisystem dedicated but in black. DK3 Nintendo-Pak flyer: http://www.arcadeflyers.com/?page=flyer&id=3148&image=4 CORRECT URL: http://www.arcadeflyers.com/?page=flyer&id=3142&image=1 Unisystem Flyer: http://www.arcadeflyers.com/?page=flyer&id=3148&image=4 When I read rzgrip's post, I assumed that it was a Vs Unisystem kit's box that had the pulled parts from a DK Jr conversion in it. If they didn't apply the new plate that would explain the serial too. DK Junior wasn't available as a kit was it? None of the flyers ever mention a kit for DK, Popeye, or DK junior. This isn't to say that over the years some op didn't swap boards around, though. I also think there might be some confusion here between the Vs system and the Playchoice-10. The Vs. system had easily swappable roms for the operators to change out games. The Playchoice-10 had 10 seperate games that the player could switch between at any time as each quarter just gave them a pre-set time limit to play. --- End quote --- Scott |

A member of these forums (Buckethead) built a MAME Donkey Kong style cab. He chose to paint it "Radar Scope" red which I personally think was an awesome choice. He has the monitor mounted vertically, to stay true to the Donkey Kong design. However he threw in a bigger 21" monitor, so he may be running some horizontal games as well. Here's a link to his thread: http://forum.arcadecontrols.com/index.php/topic,79183.msg826548.html#msg826548 DeLuSioNaL29 |

Thanks for the answers. What about making the cab a little wider than the original an rotating the monitor? |
