Product information "Donkey Kong Rearranged Multigame Free Play and High Score Save Kit"

Donkey Kong Rearranged 3DK & 3DKJr Compatibility & Requirements
Installation: This multigame uses several daughterboards installed across the original CPU and video PCBs. The main daughterboard includes its own Z80 processor, while the original compatible 8035 is transferred from the Nintendo PCB to the kit. If any required installation location is soldered rather than socketed, a qualified arcade technician must install the appropriate socket before the kit can be used.

One of the best multi kits available!
I bought mine on launch day and it was worth every penny. I used to have a DK, DKJR & DK3 all with HSS kits. This kit allowed me to consolidate down to my DK cabinet and open up space for other games in my collection. If you are a collector you know that real estate is usually a limiting factor.

This kit saved me from 10 years of frustration
I had a wonky DK 4 board stack in a hacked maybe homemade cabinet I've been fighting with for 10 years. It worked maybe 10% of the time. I found a DK Jr project in a DK cab that was in great shape. I figured I should start over.
Install took about an hour. If I didn't have to move 2 games, and read the DK Jr directions instead of DK directions, and had a reasonable number of games in my space, it probably would have taken 30 minutes.
I was a little surprised by the price at first, I did some quick math. Between switchers, board, and hi score save kits, it's a total bargain.
The colors were a bit off after the install. I was worried because it looked great before, and I was using the same board. I emailed Joe and he got back to me in under an hour, and offered a phone call. He assured me the colors were different because of the new color proms. I adjusted the monitor and everything looks perfect.
There are so many games on this thing. My old Deranged board had a trainer I could never quite figure out. This is very well laid out, and I can practice my springs board with ease. 200k is in my future! I am so pumped this thing finally works. 11/10

DKJr multi kit with wifi
Bought this kit because I was so impressed with the DK multi kit I had to have one for my Jr. Installation instructions were pretty easy to follow and I already knew from previous experience if I had any problems or questions they would be handled promptly and thoroughly. I only wish I had more arcade machines in to add save kits to and if course any multi game kits as well! Get one...you'll wonder why you didn't do it sooner!!

3DK is a game changer!
If you have a Donkey Kong game but you don't have this kit, you are missing out on the best game kit available.
P.S. Get the wifi version...trust me.
