Odds are it's DK, Popeye, or DK Junior: http://www.ukvac.com/forum/nintendo-video-arcade-machine-reference-19781985_topic352997.html --- End quote --- Based on that list and the fact mine has two coin mecks this cab was it's probably on of the following: * Donkey Kong Junior * PoPeye * Mario Bros * Donkey Kong 3 |

You need to get that paint off of it to see what color it is. Heh, you could go the nerdy route and make it a Radar Scope. ;) |

I'm going from memory, but I think all DKs besides the early red Radarscope factory conversions have 2-slot coin doors. Although there were dedicated cabinets, I think most DK3s were conversion kits for DK and Junior. Mario Bros was also sold as a kit. Factory Mario Bros came in a wider cabinet with a different coin door. Sent from my XT1585 using Tapatalk |

If blue and its recoverable, could it would be nice to just plug holes and do some touching up. The color may determine wether or not I restore. Could deniably live with Mario Bros art. |

I'm wondering what exactly was done/molested to change the monitor angle. Looks like the upper bezel/lower marquee bracket is there but the monitor should be tilted much further back & the bezel plastic should be almost vertical, not like it is in your pic. Mine is setup with 4/8 way servo stick, 2 button and around 60 games. It looks like it was rolled down a hill, the coin door is still off and the coin buttons are on piece of scrap clamped were the coin door should be. It still gets turned on and played at least 2x a week which is part of the reason it isnt finished. I screwed up and made it playable :lol I hope the CitriStrip works out for you. Like Crow said, try it on the back bottom corner. Idk if all Nintendo cabs were like mine, I just wish I knew before hand. |
