Score: 1,061,700
hmm that was new to me, my record is 125400 by the way. (with pretty bad joystick Mag-Stick Plus, on Mame)
Wonder how I had played on original cabinet ???
Maybe I'm one of the better players here in Norway ??? not because I'm good but because nobody plays it...

I'm not pleased with my high score ;D I have just played DK for about 6 months and they never had DK in my home town. As for Brian "killscreen" Kuh, he is pretty good but not unreachable.
The last two weeks I have not played DK, I have just played a little bit of Kung Fu Master which I have taken all 5 levels and got a dragon, but I missed my last man on level 2/second round. Many people play Kung Fu Master with a 8 way joystick and that's wrong, it should be 4 way joystick.

I play it, but I'm no good. I have an original DK cocktail table.

Did you import it or did you buy it in Norway...I live in Oslo by the way and I play DK sometimes in a pub called Tilt. They have a lot of pinballs and the tables are arcades where you can sit and drink beer while playing. The joystick is 8 ways on all tables and that makes it harder...
Here is a newspaper article: http://oslopuls.aftenposten.no/restaurant_uteliv/article249027.ece
And here is some pictures from the Tilt: http://gallery.pinball.no/main.php/v/user-albums/twarr/Tilt/

I bought it locally, at an auction. That's the only time I've seen anything remotely interesting in a Norwegian auction. :)
I visited Oslo (and of course Tilt) last month. What a wonderful place! They even had a Medieval Madness, and there were lots of credits in all the games, for some reason. I still have all the tokens I purchased before I noticed that, and I will spend them on my next visit to Oslo.
Do you have any games at home?

Yes I have Wonderboy in a arcade system called Kennys. Many arcades like this was placed around in my hometown. The front was changeable so they changed games every 2 months or so. Have you seen this system?

No, I never saw that around here. It's nice to see what others have. :) Did you get it directly from the operator? Does he have more?
But I must admit I didn't play much in my hometown, mostly abroad on holiday. The only games which I can remember were here in the 80s are Gauntlet, Badlands and 1942.

I have had this machine since early 90's and I have not seen any games like this since then. My hometown Fredrikstad was "full" of them in the late 80's. Maybe they lay around in a warehouse or maybe they have been thrown away. Most of the games was wall mouthed but some of them was hanged on a iron supporter. I remember a lot of games in this system: Gun Smoke, Kung Fu Master, 1942, Tiger Heli, The Last War 1999, Athena even Punch Out was on it.
