sunsetrider91 Posted April 18, 2014 Share Posted April 18, 2014 As someone who enjoys Donkey Kong Jr as much as the original DK, I was wondering if anyone would be interested in making an arcade perfect port in the vein of tep32's dk xm. Since all 4 levels are already present from the arcade version, only the cutscenes, US stage order, various graphical details and pokey sound would be needed to make it basically arcade perfect. I don't have any programming/coding experience and I'm just asking if anyone would be interested in making this. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+Defender_2600 Posted April 18, 2014 Share Posted April 18, 2014 Collaborate on Donkey Kong XM has been a wonderful experience for me.Perry and Robert have been fantastic and I would be really happy to go back with them to help on Donkey Kong Jr XM. Maybe after Dig Dug XM. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Synthpopalooza Posted April 19, 2014 Share Posted April 19, 2014 If DKJR XM happens, I'd love to help with the music. But one thing at a time ... Mario needs our help in the sewers first, he's stuck in TIA music hell. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rybags Posted April 19, 2014 Share Posted April 19, 2014 The music + effects from the computer version are pretty good, why not just borrow those? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ColecoGemini Posted April 20, 2014 Share Posted April 20, 2014 I don't really understand the whole "chase people off the board" mentality for coming up with ideas to discuss. As it is, the 7800 subforum only gets about 2-3 new threads per week. It's not like the board is overrun with so-called idea peddlers. Such negative vibes. Booooo! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+Defender_2600 Posted April 20, 2014 Share Posted April 20, 2014 nice! the arcade sprites are actually very different looking compared to the NES and standard 7800 ones. Technically possible, but in addition to designing sprites are needed code changes that are not easy. Here are some sprites: http://atariage.com/forums/topic/216044-another-7800-game-to-update-like-donkey-kong-xm/page-3?do=findComment&comment=2968538 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+MrFish Posted April 20, 2014 Share Posted April 20, 2014 nice! the arcade sprites are actually very different looking compared to the NES and standard 7800 ones. I guess you'd have to owe part of that to the fact that -- in contrast to the 7800 version -- these arcade sprites use square pixels. Of course reasonable compromises can always be made. I suppose the main thing in the 7800 version is that Mario seems to look a little squished, vertically, which isn't so untypical of conversions from arcade monitor systems to television/computer monitor systems.
