Congratulations! I'm from Mar del Plata, Argentina and was very happy these years going to play this game. Also played Popeye and Frog. Thank you. Gustavo

A true Master at what he is doing!!! My son keeps watching this over and over again. We want to start a Donkey Kong from scratch but how do I tell him Daddy has no idea?!?! Wish we had someone to guide us from start to finsh. Maybe sometime in the future we can but for the meanwhile its feedback, info, info, info, one step at a time!

Wow- your DIY skills are second to none! That arcade must have cost you a fortune, though.

[acidburn7683]

just wondered what emulator you used for this project

[DarthNuno]

@acidburn7683 Advance Mame under DOS, because it can handle the native resolution of the game and so be arcade accurate ;-)

[JoeCnNd]

I heard that radar scope was pretty bad but damn that was a rare game. Was it hard for you to decide if you wanted to turn it to a dk machine or was it your whole intention of getting it and changing it like the other ones miyamoto changed?

[sweetsunnydaygirl]

WOW! ! I totally LOVE this! EXCELLENT! I love your video and your music so much I shared it on myspace...I hope You don't mind! Great editing too...and cool picture at the end...awwww!

[DreamHomeArcades]

[mariofan96]

Man Your Lucky. But Sometime When My Brother Moves I'm Gonna Move Into His Room. And Get A Donkey Kong Machine In it. Because My Brothers Room Is Big.

[eddiemcrich]

NOW THATS THE RIGHT WAY TO PLAY!

[newkillergenius]

Nuno- I never noticed it played Crazy Kong til now- don't know how I missed that bro! You still having fun with this machine?

[pongboy1100]

[delfmeek]

[dishwasherdx]

Nice job buddy,  what was the paint code that you used on this? -JustBrian NEACF

[JPRamon68]

Dude, great video, you took me back when I was playing DK every day and I love the music from Electric Dreams.... :)

[Penfold8]

I love your soundtrack songs from "Electric Dreams" GOOD TIMES THE 80s!

[trock626]

sanyo monitor???

[rs5050rs]

That is great where did you find all the parts

[SCIONIZER]

Very cool video and a great game machine too.

[geribaldi2]

Nice restoration dude :-)

[locomoco4me]

Just got an Ultimate Mortal Kombat 3. Needs a bit of work but still functions fine. Great job!

[NESMASTER14]

Well done! looks beautiful.

[funone26]

That was sooo awesome. I liked how you used the whole '80's style movie montage to show the renovation of the game. LOL It was cool. I want to break Billy Mitchell's Donkey Kong score.

[benjimancauderys]

that's epic! im trying to complete this atm on donkey kong 64 and its relly annoying

[VaderNES]

I hope to find a Radar Scope someday. I would restore it, though, instead of converting it to Donkey Kong. I would also repair the original monitor, and anything that is broken and can be repaired.

[tekopaa]

u rule man!! i have also Atari Jamma cabinet what i turned to Maximux arcade mame caby

[nicky1925]

hat color did you use to match the radarscope red?

[store275]

What a beautiful work of art!!

The "Electric Dreams" track at the end was a perfect fit for this video!!

[xenepp]

Grab yourself a degaussing wand sir, it'll make the colours at the bottom correct. ;-)

nice resto.

[slavco99]

perfect work! nice song of 80's sounds after 0:50, anyone know the title of it?

[DarthNuno]

All the songs are coming for the Electric Dreams movie soundtrack ;-)

[slavco99]

Thank you! You do a great job! Hope you will construct galaxian2 as better as possible:) Good luck dude!

[SCIONIZER]

Nicely done. Keep it up.

[ArcadeGames]

Great Job! Not 100% original, but still!

[thepoopsniff]

turned radar scope to a donkey kong. nice

[Spitzenreitergroup]

Good job!!!

[rhart132003]

Fantastic historical homage!! Just think, Nintendo converted 2,000 unsold "Radarscope" machines (in red cabinets) into "Donkey Kong" in 1981.

A Donkey Kong lover's dream come true!

[honchomanuel1996]

I am crying!

[zoidberg87]

WHOA!you did a very very very very nice job! i love your donkey kong cabinet !

[smokinbettycrocker]

That was beautiful, man ! And the Electric Dreams soundtrack was appropriate. Thanks for the memories !

[wingnut4427]

It's so fun to restore one of these machines. I helped one of my friends restore a centipede machine. Hopefully soon I'll be able to do My Mame machine if things go well. Nice job !

[brookmaz]

electric dreams is an awesome choice of song man, good luck to you.

[brookmaz]

Nice choice of song electric dreams, i forgot about it until i saw this clip last night.

Thank you for the reminder of my missing 80's tracks.

[jejck]

how muck did all that cost? i really want one.

[scir91]

very nice i must admit! :D

i do conversions but on home consoles not arcades (don't have the space), but i love arcades the most!

[carboumentliagaizka]

Espectacular !!! Increible !!! A very good job

[mikeferr107]

That was spectacular. A well done video and a MASTERFUL restoration. That is pure talent. Seeing that cabinet sure brought back some memories. I enjoyed that video a lot. Thanks for that. Very impressive stuff.

[delfmeek]

excellent job... and excellent music selection :)

[djjohnmartin]

what is this song in the video?? please tell me...i wanna try and find it..is it The Buggles?

[DarthNuno]

All the musics of this video are coming from the "Electric Dream" *OST* ;-)
