Donkey Kong Gameplay on Donkey Kong Themed GRS Buildacade | Music: Still Climbin’ By Detroit Love

Today I’m playing Donkey Kong on a custom 1/6 scale cabinet built with the GRS Build-A-Cade kit, featuring gorgeous Szabo artwork and powered by a Raspberry Pi running a retro emulation setup. This little cabinet packs authentic arcade feel in a tiny footprint — joystick, buttons, and the original game vibe all in miniature.

“Still Climbin’” by Detroit Love is playing on the M90 MICRO BLASTER, an accurately reproduced 1:6th scale replica of the "King of Boomboxes"

This track blends nostalgia, struggle, and resilience into one powerful story about growing up, learning to fight through life’s obstacles, and finding inspiration in the most unexpected places — even an arcade cabinet.

Inspired by the long nights spent at the machine, this song turns every barrel, ladder, flame, and jump into a metaphor for survival and growth. From being 15 years old with nothing but a quarter and a dream, to climbing through real-life challenges as an adult — the spirit never changes.
