MAMEWorld Forums - EmuChat - Newcomer here, here's my plans with my DU Donations.

Greetings. My name is James McKigney, I am an avid retro gamer who is hoping to make a living in the future and contribute money to Dumping Union with specific instructions for them if I decide to start donating.

First things first, I am planning on donating as soon as the job is obtained. When the job is obtained and the first check makes it in, I will go for the 300 Dollar level if possible.

My specific plan i am willing to share to the DU is the following:

1. The first few years of my DU Subscription goes to getting the entire Game & Watch collection dumped, scanned, and running on MAME. It will be a top priority until the entire Game & Watch Gallery is preserved.

2. Next up on the subscription plan, The Nintendo Mini Classics will be the next target to nab with the subscription. There are a few exclusives to the system that would need to be preserved such as the European exclusive Mini Classic "Tetris." That will be the next target until each and every one of them is preserved.

3. I am hoping that Hudson's controllers ("Joy Card Series") can be preserved as a connectable input for Mame. There are games that have hidden stuff that requires the controllers to unlock. Games such as the Bomberman Series, The Momotaro Dentetsu series and so on.

4. Get the Link Cable for the various handheld systems up and running.

5. I would aim my money towards getting Mr. Driller, Mr. Driller 2, Mr. Driller Great, Speed Racer and Star Trigon into running, playable condition from start to finish.

5a. this will also extend to getting Sega's Model 1, Model 2, Model 3, Naomi series, and other 90's, 2000's and Early 2010 arcade boards and game systems into working, playable (from start to finish) condition in MAME.

6. Get the entire library of the 90's, 2000's and early 2010's game systems into MAME's software lists. Both from Digital and Physical distributions and all the DLCs and updates for said games. Let's get them through any cost necessary.

After all of the list is said and done, let's discuss what's the next target on the crossfire. I will give the DU an email address to discuss what's next.

I hope that I can work hard and preserve as much of gaming history as humanly possible.

Is this a realistic plan? I hope to get my studies done thus getting a great job to pay the DU with these targets. Comment what you think and I'll get in contact with you.

I vow to abide by the rules and to be fair and also treat everybody as if they were me. Hope to see you soon and in the DU's credits
