cocktail machine kill screen ?
« on: October 09, 2013, 12:16:58 am »
i was wondering if anyone has ever reached a killscreen on a cocktail machine ? (or junior for that matter) the control panel is so odd and feels so strange it seems an added degree of difficulty should apply if its ever been done !

The very first  time I kill screened on DK was a cocktail machine.  I pulled it out of the trash at a local vendor and brought it home. It  needed some repair but was complete. This was before the home PC boom, widespread internet and before there was any kind of market or collector value. 

I remember a Tempest cocktail sitting outside in the trash as well as some other upright games (most missing some parts or not working)

Yes the way the stick is oriented to the cabinet is very awkward.

ahh very good. i assume you played back in the arcade heyday, so is the cocktail how you relearned the game?
