Custom Donkey Kong CPO
« on: April 15, 2009, 04:35:33 pm »
I am working currently on a built from scratch Donkey Kong MAME (not butchering an original cabinet!)  Anywho, the CPO I have is not going to work, and I have been scouring the board to see if I can find a good custom 2 player SF type setup.  I found this thread http://forum.arcadecontrols.com/index.php?topic=90921.0 and it never loads anything and it seems to have what I am looking for.

Can anyone help me out?

I will post my project soon on here.  I have been reading on this site for the past 6 or so months, and haven't had anything to post.  I am currently working on too many things really.  I am building the MAME DK cab, a Pac-Man MAME cocktail, and restoring a 1977 3/4 scale pinball game as well. 

So I hope to start sharing my stuff with you guys soon as well, but I am impressed by the amount of talent and help that everyone here has.

Nevermind, I found a perfect scan of the original CPO, and was able to use that to make what I felt was almost exactly what I was looking for.  I hope to post the picture of it soon enogh to share with you all, and maybe someone else will enjoy it as much as I will.

  • Yeah, owning a MAME cab only leads to owning real ones. MAME just isn't good enough. It's a gateway drug.

I don't know why that thread won't load. It had a great CPO in it.

OK, so I worked this up, and I feel very strong and proud that this is the right one for me.  But before I send it off for printing, I would love any feedback or criticisms that anyone may have.  So lemme know. . .

Looks good, though the Nintendo logo looks odd

I had a tough time deciding how I wanted that logo to work.  I went through several changes, and ultimately decided to keep the original set-up.  I enclosed the thought process in pictures for all of you.

What I meant by odd is that the lettering looks off.

Ah, I guess I was getting defensive for no reason. . . sorry. . .

I copied it directly from the original CPO that I found, but I can see why you would say that.   I will look further into it to be on the safe side though.
