He knows that he will be doomed if he converts a DK cab to a Wreck-it -Cab  ;D

Downloaded the iOS (iPhone/iPad) version of Fix-it Felix Jr. and it is a LOT better than the one you can play on-line. It is much faster with fixing the windows which makes it a much more fun game to play.
They should really updated the on-line version. I just want to play that game in a real cab, but it must be the iOS version.....it would have been totally believable as DK4....

I have the Full upright Artwork from RidicRick, and he also did a artset for the Icade:



We can start to build a mini cabinet where the Ipad slides in from the top

Is the original Icade controlled by a bluetooth keyboard or something ?

btw, is there a Ipad emulator out there ? then its possible to run on a big screen  ;D

Or they need to release an stand alone version for PC...

iCade is Bluetooth and I've read because of that not very responsive in playing and I also felt it when I played the iCade that was at Eurocade 2011....

The Atari. Arcade is better in that respect because it uses the connector of the iPad. It is not as funky looking though of course....problem is that it needs to be supported by the software...just as the iCade I believe....

Afaik there is a developer tool to run iOS apps on a big computer but it's on a Mac of course....

However, naturally you can connect any iOS device to a TV with the right cable....

So, without Disney adding support for one of those two devices it's pretty pointless I think...

Fix-it Felix Jr. does work with iCade.....not sure if it works with Atari. Arcade though and I want to know !!

Strange that Disney doesn't mention iCade support....

I'm sure somebody is going to make a repro that plays the actual game, just a matter of time.  ;D

Repro: yes, playing the actual game: no. It´s like you can read minds, just wait and see, if I am correct then you will be surprised.  8)  :o  :wink:

There IS no actual game..just the browser version and the iOS version afaik.

The issue with the online version is that it takes too long to fix a window which makes the game slow and sluggish to play. On the iOS version it is much faster and much more fun to play.

I really really like the iOS version, it is addictive ! There are a couple of things that could be improved though:
- Felix never dies......I mean when hit he just flashes and then you can continue....
This is one of the few things that give it away that this is a 2012 game....this is really a modern way of loosing a life. They should have made him die in a DK style and reset the board.
- the boundaries that block your way are not overly clearly visible they could have make them stand out a bit more so it is more clear where you can and cannot move. Especially when you stand to the right of a vertical block, it gets hidden by Felix' sprite.
- and I miss the intro a bit...

Otherwise brilliant game.  Maybe the best thing is that they didn't build in Continues !!!!

Some others commented that it is weird that Felix fixes windows with an axe. It is, but I like it and I think it is deliberate. Illogical things like that happened all the times in game in those days so this just adds to the game.

Yeah, I know that there is no actual arcade game, but there might be actual arcade cabs, complete with the wreck it artwork. Just wait and see :)
