    Is there a light gun that came packed in with 7800 systems? I ask because ebay turns up nothing under a search for 7800 light guns. Does the XE light gun work fine with the 7800 system? Is there some way to make the Sega Master System gun work with a 7800 console?

     

    Thanks.

    I picked one CIB up from Goodwill with four games in their boxes, about a year ago. Unfortunately, it has screen rot and I cannot play it. Does anyone know how to repair these systems? Is screen rot fixable, or should this go in the trash?

    I recently paid the AA store to make mine, for only $25 plus shipping. I supplied the ROM file and .jpg of the label for Albert. The game plays great.

     

    Do a Google search for "5200 Donkey Kong label image" and some nice artwork comes up. Just make sure the one you send to Al is fine resolution or it will come out blurry on the final product.

     

    400/800/5200 DK is the only home version that has all 4 arcade levels (intro, intermissions, and the pie factory are missing from all the others), but that is about to change on the Colecovision and Intellivision platforms. Many thanks to the home brewers making this all possible.

     

    Now, if someone would only rework the VCS version...

    Donkey Kong Arcade does a pretty good job of reproducing the sound. I'm wondering how long it took them to get it right.

    Donkey Kong Arcade Intellivision

    That was supposed to say Donkey Kong Arcade Intellivision. Oops.

    Nonetheless... I'd like to see improved versions of these other Donkey Kong ports:

    *Atari 2600

    *Commodore 64

    *Texas Instruments TI-99/4A

     

    Having no programming experience, I thought before of redoing 2600 DK. I don't know if it could be done with Batari Basic tools, but it would be an ambitious project for sure. I don't know about all 4 arcade levels, but even adding the elevator stage to the 2600 game would be quite an accomplishment (probably tons of flicker though).

    I saw a bunch of CD-i programs (encyclopaedias, educational, and games) at a Goodwill store about 6 months back. I thought about buying them, but GW was charging $5 a piece, and I have read some horrible things about CD-i overall. I decided to skip and they sat in that store for months.
