@vintagevideogamegeek hey vintage when this game came out in 81' my granddad played this in arcades he got a high score so high the cabinet would not work
OK FIRST OFF.. never take the first hammer, always wait under the over hangs on the right hand side, jump the barrel that falls off the edge and go for it .. get you two-fitty and go down there and fuck some shit up
Doing a review 'on the road' - great! I wonder with Donkey Kong, whether there is a 'cheat' whereby you take a straight line to the top, no pauses, no jumps.....nah...tried it, died....! That hammer sucks though.
Shades of Billy Mitchell! No seriously Donkey Kong is probably the toughest game out there, every single barrel jump is like getting through 1 level of Mega Man.
The arcade version is definitely harder, it's pretty much designed to suck in those quarters. I have Donkey Kong for the Game Boy and I've completed it; while it was challenging I wouldn't describe it as brutal.
Hey don't feel bad about not getting to the pie factory level. The DK arcade is one of the hardest video games every! It took me several hours to make it to the pie factory. That continue is a new feature as well on that cab. I don't recall there every being a continue option on the original arcade. At least there isn't in my version. Good video sir.
Hey man welcome back, hope you had a great labor day and weekend :) that game looked a lot harder than the console swe play on. Donkey Kong had it in for you lol
I was at a thrift store a while ago that has a lot of pinball and arcade cabinets. They had an almost working Donkey Kong cabinet, as well as some other arcade stuff like pac-man and galaga, etc.
Nice find. I wish I could find any cabinets playing oldschool games. A place from a chain called Timezone used to have a few, but they slowly faded out, and there aren't any now. I spewed (mentally) when they briefly had a cabinet chock full of games (including MORTAL KOMBAT!) only to take it back out after a grand total of TWO WEEKS! Man, I felt sad...
Someday I'd like to own an arcade machine, this one would be amazing since it's three games in one! Donkey Kong is a pretty challenging game but I love it.
Lmao! This was a really fun video to watch. That wasn't fair!!! Awesome video! I'm glad you're still able to be putting these videos out even though you seem really busy lately.
Yeah, I am. Two weeks until I move! But I still have a few tricks up my sleeve. This one wasn't planned but it was easy to do. Just three quick videos taken on my digital camera and edited together.
@theftauto844 thank you but when I search it n ebay, amazon, and google it didn't come up.
