0.18 [Nicola Salmoria]


Artwork available


WIP:

- 0.156: Marcos75 added clone Donkey Kong (Spanish Crazy Kong bootleg).

- 0.150: Ricky2001 (from AUMAP) added clone Crazy Kong (bootleg on Galaxian hardware, encrypted, set 1). Added clone Crazy Kong (bootleg on Galaxian hardware, encrypted, set 3). Changed 'Video Stars' from a parent set to clone 'Crazy Kong (bootleg on Galaxian hardware, encrypted, set 2)'. Renamed (vstars) to (ckongcv).

- 0.147u4: Guru and Tingoes added clone Donkey King. Added encryption call, would be a push. Loading the actual dumped roms [David Haywood].

- 4th December 2012: Guru - Last year I was sent a Kong Jr. board that turned out to be Donkey King Jr. After some years(?) hunting we now have the earlier game, Donkey King. The hardware is not your usual crappy bootleg with tons of patch wires on a Galaxian or Pacman or Scramble host board. The game runs on very clean, nice dedicated hardware. It's the same game as Donkey Kong of course but this is a great find! Thanks to Tingoes for never giving up the search for this game.

- 0.147u3: Added notes about the rom mapping to Video Stars.

- 0.145u6: Fortuna found the correct manufacturer of Crazy Kong. It's Kyoei (see http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G0Tm7HwNWQQ at 20 min 21s).

- 29th December 2010: Mr. Do - I have another new toy to help clean artwork up. Using the new toy, I took the existing bezel for Crazy Kong, and created the "more offical" version of it, based on multiple photos I've seen on arcade and restoration websites (dedicated to Chris, the biggest Crazy Kong fan out there).

- 0.138u3: Fred O. added 'Crazy Kong' (Falcon? 1981). Changed 'Crazy Kong (bootleg on Galaxian hardware)', 'Crazy Kong (bootleg on Moon Cresta hardware)', 'Crazy Kong (Alca bootleg)', 'Crazy Kong (Orca bootleg)', 'Crazy Kong (Scramble hardware)', 'Big Kong' and 'Monkey Donkey' from clones of 'Crazy Kong Part II' to clones of 'Crazy Kong'.

- 23rd June 2010: Smitdogg - CrazyKongFan dumped the original Falcon version of Crazy Kong! Only one ROM is different from the Alca bootleg set. My guess is Alca just copied the ROMs straight from another revision made by Falcon and manufactured their own boards for sale. Pics of the PCB and it running (it has a couple of tiny glitches probably due to a bad RAM chip).

- 0.136u3: Added dipswitches 'Coinage (2x)', 'Cabinet', 'Lives' and 'Unused' to Video Stars. Changed Crazy Kong (bootleg on Galaxian hardware) and Crazy Kong (bootleg on Moon Cresta hardware) to clones of Crazy Kong Part II.

- 0.136u1: Stephane Humbert renamed (kkgalax) to (ckongmc), fixed dipswitches, inputs and descriptions for ckongg and ckongmc. Updated ckongmc memory map. Also fixed wrong coinage settings in ckongg. Changed description to 'Crazy Kong (bootleg on Galaxian hardware)' and clone (bootleg on Galaxian hardware, set 2) to 'Crazy Kong (bootleg on Moon Cresta hardware)'.

- 0.135u3: Andrew Welburn added 'Video Stars' (Competitive Video? 1982).

- 0.129u5: Incog fixed year in clone Big Kong according to the title screen.

- 9th January 2009: Mr. Do - We FINALLY have Congorilla bezel (a version of Crazy Kong) done, thanks to Ad_Enuff, who went through some blood, sweat and tears to get this one done. I say finally, because this was the VERY FIRST outside artwork donation purchased specifically for the project (not counting Aaron or myself), from way back in October 2006. Many thanks to Gor for picking this one up and shipping it to me for scanning.

- 0.126u4: Guru added README for Crazy Kong.

- 0.119: David Haywood added clone Crazy Kong (bootleg on Galaxian hardware, set 2). Changed description of 'Crazy Kong (galaxian)' to 'Crazy Kong (bootleg on Galaxian hardware, set 1)'.

- 0.113u4: Colin added 'Crazy Kong (galaxian)' (bootleg 1981).

- 21st May 2005: f205v dumped Crazy Kong (bootleg on Galaxian hardware, set 2). Blister, no PCB. It's a clone of Crazy Kong (Scramble Hardware). Label says: "King Kong on Galaxy".

- 0.95: Tom Girardot and Joe Magiera added clone Big Kong (bootleg).

- 0.77: Pierpaolo Prazzoli fixed the wrong sprites in Crazy Kong (Scramble hardware).

- 21st March 1999: Zsolt Vasvari has combined Crazy Kong (scramble hardware) with the main Scramble driver.

- 0.35b1: David Winter added clone Crazy Kong (Orca bootleg). This version runs on an Orca board.

- 0.34b1: Added color prom vid_6e.bin.

- 0.31: Mike Coates added clone Monkey Donkey (bootleg 1981). Known issues: Cocktail mode doesn't work in Crazy Kong (Scramble Hardware) - the game resets after player 1 dies. This is likely a bug in the game.

- 0.30: Lee Taylor added clone Crazy Kong (Alca bootleg).

- 0.28: Known issues: Music doesn't work correctly in clone Crazy Kong (Scramble Hardware).

- 0.18: Nicola Salmoria added 'Crazy Kong (Scramble Hardware)' (bootleg 1981). Music doesn't work correctly. Fixed bug in the 8910 emulation which caused noise to be played in Crazy Kong when you jumped over a barrel.

- 26th February 1997: Dumped Crazy Kong (Scramble hardware).
