It could be a fault with the power pack overheating or something, try getting another power pack and see if that helps. (look on ebay, theres always spares on there) :)

more likely to be a pin on the power loom not making full connection. guessing it's a Barcrest Sanken PSU

Donkey kong should be early EPOCH, prob is the power supply on the way out,
I have an original simpsons, and it gets left off for months, then generally won't start or doesn't spin up the reels, most of the time a replacement psu sorts it out
