Title: Restoration Donkey Kong Cocktail and Double Dragon Standup
Post by: xtommyboy22x on July 07, 2009, 06:01:08 am
Ok guys I definitely have my hands full now. The woman that I picked up the Popeye and Pacman for the combined price of $75.00  had two other games for sale, a Donkey Kong Cocktail and a Double Dragon Standup. I convinced my soon to be wife to let me pick them up because of the killer deal of $100.00 for both machines!!! I now have my hands full with restorations....Im soo happy :*)  Watch the vids let me know what you think.

P.S. I ordered a sound board kit from bob roberts, so that loud hum on the Donkey Kong,will soon be fixed :)

I am so utterly jealous of you right now.
I would love ALL those cabs. I could do without Popeye (never a big fan) but I'd kill for the rest.
I don't know where you guys find these deals.
Can't find deals like that here in Toronto, from what I've found so far.

Sounds like the fabled "Nintendo Hum".

Good luck with those. I want them all.

YOU ARE ONE LUCKY SON OF A GUN!
That is pretty awesome.... you have a whole arcade in your basement now!  :cheers:
Can I get your wife to talk to my girlfriend into letting me have more too?  :P
Sometimes I wonder which is a better investment........What? Who said that?  :dunno

I just missed out on an original Space Invaders with excellently complete artwork and overall sexual beauty for $50 Canadian dollars...... :banghead:

Again, congratulations!
