story is not over yet, and never will be. now billy is still suing TG over breach of the settlement, he thought the scores would put back on the scoreboard, not the historical ones. also, the lawsuit on karl jobs is still ongoing : later || | || | | ne gat ive 1 l -
i have most of the ones you mentioned. haven't seen or noticed any defects. of course you need a joystick for defender, how else are you going to move up and down. i've also tried playing it with a 4 way stick on xbox, and that works to some degree also, as long as you don't get to the higher waves, where you need more precision control. later ||| || | | | ne gative 1

so if it was a virtual pinball game, would you pay the $399 or $499 for it? most people wouldn't. most of these mini games get played a few times and end up collecting dust on a desk. at least this time, they actually just cut out the part of it being playable, so you're just paying for the materials. later || | | | | | | ne gative 1

billys scores will be reinstated, unfortunately: https://arstechnica.com/gaming/2024/01/twin-galaxies-billy-mitchell-settle-donkey-kong-score-case-before-trial/ Twin Galaxies restores Billy Mitchell’s scores following legal settlement The long, drawn-out legal fight between famed high-score chaser Billy Mitchell and "International Scoreboard" Twin Galaxies appears to be over. Twin Galaxies announced Tuesday morning that it "shall heretofore reinstate all of Mr. Mitchell’s scores as part of the official historical database on Twin Galaxies’ website." The statement comes days after Courthouse News reported that Mitchell and Twin Galaxies had reached a confidential settlement in a defamation case surrounding Mitchell's 2018 removal from the Twin Galaxies scoreboard. In its statement, Twin Galaxies relies on recent testimony from Dr. Michael Zayda, who was presented as an expert at the trial. Zayda's testimony concluded that Mitchell's submitted gameplay "could in fact depict play on original unmodified Donkey Kong arcade hardware if the hardware involved was malfunctioning, likely due to degradation of components." what could it mean : later || | || | ne gative 1 -

these are being discussed in the myarcade thread, since they're not mini-arcades also the controls will be terrible, because they are too small, and in the wrong locations. later | || | | | ne gatie 1
