root42 Posted June 13, 2019 Share Posted June 13, 2019 (edited) Ok, I got my Harmony cartridge today and tried out both the PAL and NTSC versions of the game. However in both the colors seem off. Any ideas why? EDIT: I think my TV is at fault. I think it might have some NTSC autodetect. When I put my Composite->HDMI box in betweend, DK VCS looks superb. With the PAL60 version and composite in from my TV, it looks like it has garbled colors. Edited June 13, 2019 by root42 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoeLogname Posted August 5, 2019 Share Posted August 5, 2019 Guys, I notice that the boxart for DK VCS says it has the levels from Jumpman Returns in it as a bonus. I'm going mad trying to find them. Are they there? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+save2600 Posted August 5, 2019 Share Posted August 5, 2019 Bonus levels? Box art? Somebody selling carts/boxes of this yet? Wait, is it even officially finished? Perhaps these questions and more are buried somewhere in the 36 pages of this thread. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joe Musashi Posted August 6, 2019 Author Share Posted August 6, 2019 Sorry to disappoint you, but the DK II levels are not included. This is some "inofficial" fan box art that was done long before the game was finished. There are actually three easter eggs in the game... The biggest one is a secret ending tune (from the arcade) which you can unlock ? 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joe Musashi Posted August 11, 2019 Author Share Posted August 11, 2019 (edited) The third is just a message in the binary code. This message is not in the regular binaries posted here It is only included if you build the cartridge version of the ROM form source with ‘make cart’ see: Edited August 11, 2019 by Joe Musashi Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
King_Salamon Posted August 11, 2019 Share Posted August 11, 2019 Is this getting close to a release at the Atari Age store? Will it get some kind of treatment like Turbo with the Coleco beige carts being used? I'll purchase this for sure! Can't wait! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PaulDarren Posted September 11, 2022 Share Posted September 11, 2022 (edited) To the creator of this Donkey Kong version : I am interested in a physical cartridge of this for my 2600. Let me know how much you would want. Edited September 11, 2022 by PaulDarren Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaulDarren Posted September 11, 2022 Share Posted September 11, 2022 (edited) I was wondering if the creator could make me a (Donkey Kong VCS 1.0 170304 NTSC by Joe Musashi 2017) cartridge for my 2600. If so let me know the costs and I'll send you an e-transfer. Thank you Edited June 16 by PaulDarren Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+KaeruYojimbo Posted November 13, 2022 Share Posted November 13, 2022 I stumbled across this very unauthorized looking DK VCS cart for sale on eBay. https://www.ebay.com/itm/275530221451?hash=item4026e1878b:g:YIsAAOSwDpBjaGcX 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PaulDarren Posted January 15, 2023 Share Posted January 15, 2023 Hey Joe, I know you started this thread quite a while ago, but was wondering if you could make me a physical cartridge of Donkey Kong VCS for my 2600 ? If so...just get back to me with your price and we will go from there. Thx Paul Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Al_Nafuur Posted August 22, 2023 Share Posted August 22, 2023 @Joe Musashi has not been active in this fourm for a long time. Did he ever give permission for hacks of D.K. VCS? or is publishing the code here permission enough? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DannyFranky Posted August 26, 2023 Share Posted August 26, 2023 Is it possible to order a custom cart of this game from the store? Are there labels available for it that I can download somewhere? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
