Ciao ragazzi !!!
Qualche mese fà vi avevo detto che sarei tornato con un nuovo progetto
eccoci qua, dopo 2 anni di ricerche (maledetto coin door) e 2 mesi di lavoro il cab è terminato
DONKEY KONG RED VERSION
(La storia, scusate l'inglese):
Radarscope :
The game was popular for a short period in Japan, so the president of newly-founded Nintendo of America, Minoru Arakawa, placed a large order for it. By the time the game arrived in New York, months had passed and the buzz surrounding the game had dissipated. The game's sounds were high pitched chirps which many gamers found annoying. American arcade operators were unimpressed, and Nintendo of America was stuck with thousands of unsold units sitting in the warehouse. Arakawa faced financial disaster, so he pleaded with his father-in-law (Nintendo CEO Hiroshi Yamauchi) to provide him with a new game which he could install as a replacement in the Radar Scope arcade machines, which could be repainted to reflect a new game.
Yamauchi assigned the games designer, Shigeru Miyamoto, the task of "fixing" the game so it would appeal to gamers. Rather than tweak a poor game, Miyamoto designed an entirely new game, Donkey Kong, using the Radar Scope hardware. Out of the 3000 arcade units originally manufactured, around 2000 were converted to Donkey Kong. The converted units can be spotted by their red cabinets. Conversion kits for the new game were then shipped to North America, where Donkey Kong went on to become a huge success. As a result, Nintendo established itself as a powerhouse in the North American video game market. (source from Wikipedia)
Sono molto soddisfatto del risultato ..... come ho fatto per Pac-man e Galaga posterò tutte le foto del lavoro nel corso di questi giorni.
