Putting my Mr.Do castle into the birdie King cabinet this is part 1

Indeed Sega/Gremlin published Space Firebird, as well as Nintendo. It's a banger shooter, awesome game, I used to have a Nintendo cocktail of it and I played it almost every day. It was one of the first games I ever restored.

Ok I thought there was 2 different versions thank you

Good call using this cabinet. Amazing how quick you turned this around. Looking forward to it coming together.

[@troylukans2174]

Thank you

Thanks for the video Troy. This conversion makes sense. Take a game that is not popular and use the cabinet for one that is wanted. Hope your knee is healing well.

[@troylukans2174]

Thank you I appreciate it and knee is getting a little better. I don’t have my brace on right now, but I have not had an MRI yet so who knows

Subbed. Awesome channel! Amazing how deep you go into these restorations. I have 4 machines. I have a very nice survivor unrestored Pac-Man. The lady thought it was "broke" but it just needed the monitor pots adjusted, for $200. Asteroids Deluxe. SEGA Hang-On. and a Centipede. Love Mr. Do! and Castle also. Mr. Do! is my holy grail. Playing it for 40 years. The last local sale in New England area of a quality Mr. Do! in a dedicated Universal cab I saw was $3,500. Very rare I know, but crazy prices. I might have to make a cab from scratch. My buddy has a CNC, and I do have a file. I hope your channel really takes off, because you deserve it. Give this guys some likes and subs!

Sega gremlin did release a space firebird game with that cabinet. The game is not horrible. Basically just a galaxian rip off

[@troylukans2174]

Specs documentation from MAME Plus It's a rare early Nintendo. Definitely a collector's item. Space Firebird (c) 1980 Nintendo. Space Firebird is a one or two player game in which players are attacked from all sides by highly maneuverable Firebirds. Players can move space ship left or right and shoot a rapid-fire laser at attacking Firebirds. A special Warp Mode allows the space ship to escape danger and fire at the flock of aliens. FIREBIRDS The space Firebirds are a unique set of adversaries. There are three different birds, the Emperor, Eagle and Gull, which fly together in complex looping formations, firing and attacking from all directions. The player must keep track of the laser hits because each bird has a different resistance level to hits. The fearless Emperor is destroyed by four hits, the Eagle with two hits and the soaring Gull with one hit. The Eagle also has a deadly bomb which is launched at the space ship. Extra points are scored by hitting the bomb before it explodes. The bomb when hit, scatters into deadly shrapnel. To avoid the flying shrapnel, the bomb must be hit from directly underneath. SPACE SHIP The space ship can be moved right or left to evade attacking Firebirds. Depressing the fire button enables the space ship to shoot its laser at approaching Firebirds. Players receive 3 (adjustable) space ships per play. WARP MODE Activate warp mode to escape impeding danger or to strike out at approaching birds. There is only warp mode per space ship. When activated, the space ship is launched into space with a force field around it that deflects enemy fire. In warp mode, Firebirds can be eliminated by ramming into them or by firing at close range. If all Firebirds are destroyed, the player moves into a new battle sequence that increases in difficulty. One new space ship is awarded for a score of 5, 000 (adjustable) points. Game ends when all space ships are destroyed.

Thank you for the information. I was able to find all the artwork for that cabinet so I have all the artwork now. Well, it’s on the way now. I just need to find a pcb supposedly it was originally made by Nintendo and then distributed in the US by Saga if I’m correct
