That is really nice. I usually see the Ms. Pacman/Galaga combo cocktail arcade cabinets around here for about the same price. The Donkey Kong one is something I've never seen before, congratulations on picking it up!
I actually talked to a guy today about buying a 4-slot Neo Geo cabinet. He wanted $800, and considering the condition that it was in, I wasn't too crazy about that price. The color in the monitor had faded quite a bit, and the cabinet itself had what looked like marker or pen all over the front and sides of it.

Re: Got a cocktail arcade
I saw a Doctor Who Pinball Machine online once. I really wanted it but I have no space. I think a cocktail arcade machine would make a fantastic coffee table. Quite the conversation piece.

Haha, I knew he was called Jumpman, but I was hoping for some bad Engrish. "When a certain structures have been cleared" and bad Engrish I got. xDgirlracer wrote:1. Insert coin(s).
2. Select one or two players.
3. Controller moves Jumpman in 4 directions.
4. Jump button make Jumpman jump.
5 If Jumpman reaches top, Donky Kong takes the lady higher up, and the structure changes shape.
6. When a certain structures have been cleared, Jumpman saves the lady.
Yep Mario was once known as Jumpman

Re: Got a cocktail arcade
I am pretty sure it is not a direct swap from Donkey Kong to Pacman, but I know it is doable (I use to know a guy who had a Pacman Cocktail that had a second switch on the PSU plate to swap between them).

Theres a 60 in 1 board i'm looking at. I have a friend who used to work for a company that repaired arcades so i have plenty of help.

Aw man, this reminds me of old pizza parlors in the 80s. They always had these cocktail tables there. I love those things. There's a place nearby me that has a tetris one that I sometimes play on.

I have one of those boards in an upright cabinet. I really like, just plug and play and you have a bunch of classics on one machine. The only issue I would see is that I doubt that Donkey Kong cocktail is wired for JAMMA, so you'd hae to up in a new harness to make that work.
