pjs Posted January 26, 2018 Share Posted January 26, 2018 Hey all, I'm just curious how everyone is doing with Donkey Kong PK? I played it for the first time Wednesday, and man is it a winner! Tough as can be, but probably one of the best, and frustrating games I've played in a LONG time! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dauber Posted January 26, 2018 Share Posted January 26, 2018 It'd be cool if there were some DKPK/XM tracks on one of the scorekeeping sites...one for Japaanese format, one for US format... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trebor Posted January 26, 2018 Share Posted January 26, 2018 The watered-down difficulty from the Arcade that is presented under the popular and familiar original retail ports of many platforms, can result in providing quite the challenge to players of the Arcade accurate difficult DK PK. There is though an easier Novice setting. Most original retail versions I can play for a very long time, and usually just quit under the ColecoVision, NES, or 7800 original. I typically perform pretty well playng DK PK too, such as during the box contest and a respectable job when creating the video below (Although that playthrough was not intended for maximum points): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FVksiALE6e0 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Cafeman Posted January 26, 2018 Share Posted January 26, 2018 I last longer than when I play 5200 Pac-man Arcade! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pjs Posted January 27, 2018 Author Share Posted January 27, 2018 Dauber, if you join highscore .com there is a listing for both versions (US and Japan). Good site to track your scores as well as how you do against others. It'd be cool if there were some DKPK/XM tracks on one of the scorekeeping sites...one for Japaanese format, one for US format...

Trebor Posted January 27, 2018 Share Posted January 27, 2018 Grips, that is a monster score! Mine is just over 100k on us starting at screen 1. Ugh. I got work to do! More work than you think 165,700 Arcade/US/Level 1 start, I posted the below score middle of last year: I've gotten closer to, but haven't reached, 175,000 just yet. As mentioned in the above link, my long term goal of 250,000 is still far off on the horizon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
