Covburner Posted July 11, 2014 Share Posted July 11, 2014 Hi guys excuse my ignorance new to the scene just brought a 7800 and have 30 games all work fine except donkey kong which seems to run twice as fast as it should any idea why this might be? Has anyone had the same issue with this game or others? Sorry if I am bringing up something that has been discussed before and thanks for your help Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trebor Posted July 11, 2014 Share Posted July 11, 2014 If you are from a PAL region with a PAL 7800 console, you may have an NTSC version of Donkey Kong, which could cause the issue.See this post for Donkey Kong and other NTSC game behaviors on a PAL console.

Covburner Posted July 11, 2014 Author Share Posted July 11, 2014 (edited) Great thanks for the reply it doesn't say if it's pal on the box or cart I assume I can check via cart serial or something Edited July 11, 2014 by Covburner Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trebor Posted July 11, 2014 Share Posted July 11, 2014 Sometimes, but not always, PAL carts will have a 'P' sticker on the back of them. Otherwise, a 7800 cart's region distinction is not possible outside of testing it in the console to see how/if it plays. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Covburner Posted July 11, 2014 Author Share Posted July 11, 2014 Thanks for the info bud that's great live and learn this must be NTSC so just have to sell it and find another Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
