Steve Wiebe, star of The King of Kong documentary, announced a short time ago that he was returning to the competitive Donkey Kong scene.
Though he has only been back a few weeks, Wiebe has already set a a new personal best. with a score of 1,106,200, easily topping his previous best of 1,064,500 set in 2010. Robbie Lakeman holds the world record at 1,260,700, but perhaps Wiebe can beat that soon.
Wiebe shared some words:
I’m a ways away from any world record on Donkey Kong, but it sure felt good to cross the 1.1M mark. I was just doing a practice game before I was going to stream, and I had a good run for 1,106,200. I should be streaming everyday for the summer and hopefully, I can hit my next milestone of 1.15M soon.
