I don't think the fellow who wrote this article knows that a KoK remake/sequel revolving around Billy and Steve would be laughably out of touch with today's reality.

I wonder sometimes if Seth and Ed are aware of all that's happened since the movie.

Though I guess reality never stopped them before!  <Tim>

Does anyone know this Mike grant guy? Would be cool to have him on the forum and watch him play on twitch.

Whoever he is, I have messaged him to see if he wants to connect on the forum, maybe sell him a machine, for the right price, get to know him, and let him know of all the different things that various members of the DK Community are already doing and see if he wants to collaborate some efforts.

Apparently Cat DeSpira was the one who made the calls and connections that led to that piece (which aired in other places as well, I'm told).

Pretty cool, thanks Cat!  :)

I give her credit she put a lot of work into getting this story on the news.

Not directly DK related, but a mention nonetheless! This is from one of the local papers in Wellington, New Zealand.

Not really news, but just thought this was funny. Was at Chassis Arcade here in Copenhagen last night hanging out, when suddenly a big group of people started coming in. Turned out it was a bike race, where they had different stops where they needed to do things, and Chassis was one of them. They had been given 2 DKK each at the beginning of the race, only knowing that they had to use it at that address. When they arrived, they found out that they needed to play Donkey Kong. It was pretty funny, none of them had ever been down there or played DK, and they all pretty much sucked at it. No one finished the fist barrel screen, and pretty much all of them immediately went for the bottom hammer. Best score was 2900 points  8)
