> Damn.I was hoping it was a undiscovered revision.OH well
Just curious, to help those of us who don't really understand the world of arcade enthusiasts so well ... what would be the value of this undiscovered revision? Would you really be that excited about a version of Donkey Kong that had yellow for the high score text instead of red? Or was it that you'd have been hoping for some other differences in the revision that would be interesting? Even then, what would the value be? It's not like there is nostalgia to play again a revision of a game that you never would have played or seen before. If the timings or something had been slightly different, would it be that thrilling?
I absolutely don't mean to belittle your interests or your enthusiasm; this is really meant as an honest question because I'd like to understand arcade history enthusiasts a little better. I read about the various obscure revisions of obscure games that are being discovered and talked about excitedly on the front page of mameworld.info all of the time, and aside from trying to infer what the excitement is about from all of the posts, I don't really know because I'm not part of that scene. Once again, not belittling it - just trying to understand better something that is a bit of a mystery to me. Thank you!
