- I've been wanting to do this for a very, VERY long time.
Whether you know or not, one of my previous Donkey Kong playthroughs is actually my top-viewed video in the entire history of my 4500+ channel, and by a very VERY large margin. Entire playlists of games you've seen me cover get ALL of their views outdone and totally drowned out by that one video. However, it also has an insane amount of dislikes because it's really flawed due to me dying a few times in it. I wanted to fix that in some ways and did a bit more research on why some versions of the game have a different level order, which I was also criticized for getting a few things wrong about.
If you're curious, I'll provide links to my other runs of this game:
Japanese Arcade Run:
• Donkey Kong (Original)...
First American Arcade Run:
• Donkey Kong (Original)...
US NES Run:
• Donkey Kong (Original)...
----------
The American version of Donkey Kong opens up more levels in later rotations, rather than having them all unlocked at once. Rotation 1 has you go through 25m and 100m. Then it leads to Rotation 2, which lets you play through 25m, 75m, and 100m. Then beating those makes you go through Rotation 3, where all 4 of the game's levels are playable from that point on, including 50m.
The game keeps track of the rotation you're on at the top-right corner of the screen with the blue "L=", with the number next to it being your current rotation. This increases every time you beat the game and go back to 25m.
In this video, I go through all 3 of these rotations on top of not having a single death to slow the experience down. This took me quite some time to do this, because RNG in full effect for a lot of the things that happen in this game, such as whether a barrel rolls down a ladder in 25m not.
I made this video to make up for how clumsy and naive I was being in my previous runs of the original Arcade version of the game. I present to you all a much more cleaner and refreshing take on this timeless classic.
I hope you all enjoy it! - Игры
Tomorrow is my birthday! I'm very excited! Dad said he was going to take me to play my favorite game! I love Donkey Kong!

Happy birthday
Happy birthday ( ik I'm late but happy birthday for this year 🎂 🎁)
Happy birthday
surprisingly tough to beat deathless, currently going for 101% in DK64 and they have us do this...
The sound he makes when he's walking is funny
80's arcades were the best! Wish I was back in time now.
I was born in 1993, how were 1980s arcades the best? I am just curious. Is it because more people used to hang around arcades...families and stuff...and play Pac-Man and Donkey Kong?
I like how the US Version makes you unlock Pie Factory (50m) and Elevator (75m) by reaching Lvl 2 (Elevator) & Lvl 3 (Pie Factory), as if the where bonus Stage's.
Also, level three and four have the correct level order, which is pretty interesting, since the rest of the levels are completely out of order and random, in the Japanese set of Donkey Kong the levels are in perfect order and it always Loops the same level order every time, in the US set sometimes the levels are out of order, sometimes they are not, the reason why. Is probably just because Nintendo of America is a different company than Nintendo of japan. Because in the Japanese sets, there is a glitch where if you're on the first ladder and you hold right and jump at the same time you can fall through the floor and glitch through the top and skip the first stage all together, there are also a few glitches where if you're touching the girders the barrels will never roll down on you, this is most likely due to the fact that the Japanese boards were a modification of Nintendo's classic failure, radar scope. The first ever cabinets designed in japan, kind of looked similar to Midway cabinets. And when it came time to release them in the US they were just conversions of radar scope, which were red cabinets.
I too miss the good old days of the video game arcade. Wow, did our quarters disappear like crazy.
Fun fact, the US set of Donkey Kong has 22 level rotations, just like the Japanese version, the levels are just out of order. On level 22 you will get killed for no reason, it's called The Kill screen, it's just a glitch in the programming and it's an interference with the bonus timer on the right. The numbers go out of order then start counting upward and downward then downward again, which messes up the game, Nintendo admits that it was just a glitch.
Yo, I never even made it to the conveyer belt level, yo.. This dude is a master!
Ah yes, Pauline the very upmost unforgettable Nintendo video game character; who used to appear in the 'Donkey Kong' cartoon series. 😀
My first time playing Donkey kong was on my family’s Commodore 64 C back in the day then Playing it in Donkey Kong 64
Donkey Kong and pauline are born 0:07
Mario is born 0:22
Cranky Kong was once the original Donkey Kong until years later he became old.
That is a retcon made by the Rare company. Miyamoto, the Donkey Kong creator himself, didn't agree with the retcon and I am sure that deep down inside he considers red tie new DK to be the same as 1981 DK.
This game better be a scene in the Mario Movie showing off Mario’s origin story.
This guy makes it look easy, but it's way harder than it looks. This game requires lots of practice, which must have been expensive back in the day considering 25 cents was worth a lot more back then. I beat this last night so I watched this video to confirm that I did indeed play all the levels.
This is back in my day!!!!!!!!!!!!
How HIGH can you get!? YESS
Nostalgia, am I right?😊
Nice job!
In the first few frames of the video a bunch of zeroes can be seen and I was able to pause at the correct moment and figured out how many zeroes are there.
Their are 896 zeroes here's the equation. 28*32
Now you're probably wondering why? Oh dear reader, I just had curiosity and decided to post the answer.
Fun Fact: This was the first game Mario appeared in
Fun Fact 2: Mario's original villain was DK
Fun Fact 3: Mario's original GF was Daisy
I did not know that thanks for correcting me
@@captainamerica6315 I thought it was Pauline, because that to me does not look like Daisy, unless if that was original look, then yeah I can understand.
@@JaylaisAwesomeactually it's neither daisy or Pauline that character that you see up there on top of the gutter isn't neither of them but a whole different Mario character named lady
@@cartrellsplunge1525 I know her original name was “Lady” but still.
@@JaylaisAwesome oh
Always love the intro the game
The music for the first stage is “dude, I’m on a date”
Excellent.

The colors of the radar scope donkey kongs, are slightly different from the US donkey kongs, this is not anything like Mame by the way, early versions of m a m e, look somewhat similar, but not exact. The colors of the girders are more red, the peach colors on Donkey Kong are more yellow. Etc
1:09 what is that sound called
Jumpman Vs Donkey Kong
Why doesn’t the game always give you 100 points for jumping over a barrel?
It would be interesting if they made a video game similar to that one... only it would be Spiderman AND Hulk... how Hulk throws the bars and Spiderman jumps on them. saving mary jane from hulk
ANK ANK ANK!
Would it be okay to use clips of this video (credit will be given) in my own? I'm making my own arcade game, and I'd be using this as an example.
Go ahead.
Appreciate it!@@Carls493
