Would you guys be interested in High Score Save Kits with a Bonus?

[Tyrem]

This is amazing work.

Can the highscores be uploaded to a website? How does this work? Can we choose a website we want providing there is code to support it?

this version has the internet-board connected to it. it uploads the highscores to our website.
on that site you will be able to make tournaments, compare your scores in your gameroom or compare with every score in the world. it will be up to you.
we are planing to do a gameroom-leaderboard-thing as well.

Impressive !

we did not order the production boards so far. it's pretty much the same though when it comes down to the look of it.

Jochen did some work last night and finished the prototype of our highscore savekit for the old Midway-machines Space Zap, WoW and Gorf.

It is actually going to happen, here is the first pic:



The brindge at the top will change in the final version.

Top notch work! I wish I had one of the games it supports. The internet upload thing is AMAZING. Make it work with Donkey Kong!

Being a-technical myself, I can but be in awe of projects like this - amazing stuff!

Any idea yet on the final price per save kit?

Cheers,

yeah. a normal savekit would be around 39 euros inkluding on screen dips.
the highscore upload feature would make it a little hit more expensive but it will be totally optional.

I have a DK save kit, it is totally awesome to be able to save your scores. It also comes with free play option btw

This takes it next level, upload the highscore

[Chuckie egg]

Sounds like a great idea if you can pull it off
I don't know how it would work but but sounds good
Trouble is I don't have a wi if spot anywhere near my arcades

You can get wifi range extenders.

Not sure if I already mentioned this....but this would be one step closer to playing two player games on-line......that would be KILLLER IMHO....

yeah.. but extremely complicated with the limits we have in the old games.

Can you make it work with Donkey Kong if the D2K kit is installed??

I really think this is the coolest thing EVER.

that´s a good question... i have a dk with a d2k-kit installed. i guess the only way this works is to take out the kit and replace it with ours... with the d2k-code on it.
this of course could mean trouble with the creator of the d2k. maybe we should try to do it and then step up to him. after all this could be cool for all of us.

jochen is going to look into it but he thinks it will be possible. do you know the guy who did the d2k?
cause we wanna have him on board with us. after all this is his baby.
