Hi all! I'm in Bradenton Florida at the moment on Vacation and I want to go play Donkey Kong but the few places I found that might have it either don't have it or it's not working at the moment.
There's
Bradenton Arcade
5854 14th St W
Bradenton, FL 34207
(941) 739-1800
But apparently that's not an arcade...
Then there's
Old Farmer's Creamery
2531 4th North Saint Petersburg, FL 33704-2805
(727) 896-2827
But their Donkey Kong is not working at the moment. Apparently it needs a fuse and she doesn't know where to get one or where it is on the machine. I offered to come fix it if they set it on Free Play, but she said her husband works on the machines. Get a damn fuse then!!!
Last but not least there is
Ellenton Ice & Sports Complex
5309 29th St E
Ellenton, FL 34222
(941) 723-3663
They have one of those multi-machines that has a billion games in it. I'm pretty sure I found someone saying it was on there, but who knows if the machine has it or not, and if the joystick is even a 4-way. Plus the quarter per play on that machine would seriously not be worth it. I really want to play the real deal if I'm going to drive out and about on my vacation for it.
BTW: This site was very helpful when trying to locate particular games:

So I ask, where oh where can I play one??? Can anyone help me out? I'm leaving this area after the 15th.
Thanks!
