Title: First KS on Christmas Eve!
Post by: Animalchild on December 25, 2020, 09:24:48 pm
Hey guys,
finally had the game all beginners dream of!
firstly this was achieved on a 60-1 as I live in Australia and kong pcbs are bloody rare.
I know most won't like that but unfortunately it is what it is. Either way I'm mega proud of myself and thought id share it with you guys.
Interesting to note, I added 200000 to my previous score and also had my longest first man at 400k. my best before that was 340000. looking forward to my local arcade opening back up and trying to do it again on a OG cab.

(seems I can't post the short video of the actual kill screen due to a size limit, might edit later with a youtube link)

Congratulations!  Having played dk on a number of those combo platter machines, I hafta say the controllers can be some of the most atrocious I've ever used.  They're almost certainly not tailor-made for this specific game.  So great job.  If you wanna submit, there's always MAME & the rules / guidelines.  I know nothing of 60n1s vs policies.

Its actually a stand up lowboy machine, 4 way stick and 1 button, I bought it with only dk in mind so the set-up is actually pretty legit for what it is. Its downfall is the zippy stick and it being 60-1 but it's actually great for dk.
