While everyone has been wrapped up in the post King of Kong rivalry of Wiebe and Mitchell, a new face has swept in and taken the Donkey Krown. It is Hank Chien a 35 year old plastic surgeon from New York. Twin Galaxies has posted an exclusive post-record interview with the man behind the amazing score of 1,061,700. Congrats to Hank, the new King of Kong.

I’ll give it less then a week and Wiebe will call it bunk.
