Donkey Kong 2 - D2K Project
audiomidiman:
Well the art package shipment 1 of 2 showed up today and everything looks great.
When it arrived my son could hardly wait.
Marquee looks great.
CPO looks equally as good. I installed new buttons from Mike's Arcade. I also opted to purchase a NEW reproduction DK/DK Jr. (4 way) from Mike's arcade. This thing looks great!!!
HoopstarsGarage:
The counter increments once digit for every +12v pulse... so you can easily connect the one wire to ground and touch the other wire to the +12volt supply (they are not polarity sensitive) - you only need to do this on your counter 968366 times and it'll reset to zero :)
Alternatively you can pull the counter apart and pull the numbered gears and manually rearrange them, but you need to be confident as getting them to function again reliably is certainly not easy.

Well, the other night I replaced the cardboard bezel and installed my extra DK Jr. Bezel until the D2K bezel arrives.
I have a couple of purple buttons on there way (thanks gatordad) and not sure what to do about the other buttons (Might do Purple and red, Purple and Galaga Gold, Purple and White or Purple and Black... Galaga Yellow and Red would look pretty good as well.
Have to put the bezel instruction sticker on (debating if I want to repaint this piece or not), install the insert coin stickers on and install the back door and I'm done for now while I await the D2K side art and bezel. I'm also missing the plywood that sits behind the neck-board of the Monitor and debating if I should replace this or not. Oh and I really should replace the plug and/or cord.

Love it !

Hey Sir - your D2K parts look great! If you don't mind me asking - when did you place your order? Reason I'm asking is that I pre-paid for my D2K kit back in July and have yet to see anything show up. I'm just curious to see where I might sit in the order line.
Thanks! I'm anxious as heck to get mine assembled as well!
