    I'm glad they're still DK2. And thisoldgame.com is still selling the 'official' artwork. I'm thinking about gutting my SMB, painting it "sapphire sparkle", and putting in DK2 sometime this summer. This year, since I spent all last summer working on my Pac-Man, I'll be giving more attention to my Nintendo cab.

    I just don't wanna turn it into a JAMMA machine... When DK2 was first released, wasn't it a simple daughter card add-on, or ROM swap on the 2-board versions of DK/DKjr?

    No it still is. There's a JAMMA multi board that you can buy that has it on there now, but the original kit is still a plug in via a daughter card... You unplug the z80 and plug the board into it. It works on the 4 board and 2 board version of Donkey Kong.

    I posted on how to do it here.

    My z80 was soldered to the PCB, but most aren't.

    Excellent. I just found myself a summer project! Now to find someone who's got a DK PCB for sale. Or someone who will do a trade/cash deal, to get rid of the Vs. PCB.
