It's been 40 years since this classic arcade of Donkey Kong was released in Japan, US and many countries and what's your tribute to it's anniversary? "This game is one of the greatest classic arcade games in history and leads to joy and skill. Let's celebrate Donkey Kong Happy 40th Birthday for this day on!!!"
It's hard to believe we're all in our 50s now, and there are no more arcade game rooms. Arcades were our favorite hangout places. If I had all those quarters back, I'd be a rich man now. Lmao!
Would you be richer though? If you had all those quarters back, sure you'd have more money, but would have missed out on those great moments, memories, and experiences. Sometimes being rich has more to do with our mind and soul rather than from purely a financial standpoint. Ok that's my deep thought for the day lol
I'm probably a little younger than you but probably not by much(I'm 43). I spent a ton of quarters on Bad Dudes and Final Fight, those were my 2 main games as a kid in arcades. While they're nowhere near the same tier as timeless classics like DK, Pacman, Galaga, etc., those were the games that I have the most memories attached to as a kid. And to this day I do still play Final Fight here and there, albeit in my home and on a console. It's not quite the same but it's the best I can do.
I wasn't even born by these days. It's incredible how much of a time traveling machine this game feels. It kinda gives us a glimpse of what the world and the technology were back in 1981. And we can tangibly access all this content instead of just remembering and looking at photos. True witnesses to consult from the days of yore.
Eddie Plant: "You see, the thing about Donkey Kong is, at the higher levels, the barrels become more random, possessed almost. And playing by the patterns doesn't do the trick anymore. Does it, Brenner?"
Soo decent! Love this version. We made a Mario tribute video and definitely snuck some love for this game in there! Call me crazy, but despite all the characters and worlds and power-ups and gameplays, this is the best incarnation of Mario Bros.
Arguably the Best and most iconic Classic arcade game ever along with Pac man and space invaders ! the one i played in the arcade had the pie factory as 2nd stage and then the srpings and lastly the "Knock down" the gorilla stage.
This guy actually plays these boards way different than record-holder players do. Odd patterns, especially on the rivet stage, taking the long way on the elevators, and no point pressing. It almost takes more skill to play it "wrong" like this.
For anyone that doesn't know this is how the sounds are supposed to be. The run soumd. This is the arcade sound. Most emulators today have only one run sound pitch repeated over and over not being accurate.
The guy claiming to have the world record (guinness) or whatever, was possibly a douchey liar is what the OP is talking about. There's unnecessarily long, investigative videos on youtube about it. You'll auto-play your way through it someday if you haven't already.
For those who didn't understand, he is talking about Billy Mitchell. He used to be considered one of the best videogame players in the world, achieving records in Pac-Man and Donkey Kong, but they just found out he cheated on his Donkey Kong high scores that gave him fame as a desperate attempt to regain his top spot after he was surpassed, and while he may have made a legit perfect score in Pac-Man, he was considered the first player to achieve a perfect record, but sources are claiming he was not the first.
I played the variation of this game included with Donkey Kong 64. If you take a closer look at it, you can see how the folks at Rare subtly improved the game.
Best arcade game ever made IMO. We played this endlessly at the skating rink and had a blast! Thanks for posting:) Some of the other great ones that I loved were Donkey Kong Jr, Marble Madness, Hang-on, Jungle King(and Jungle Hunt), Punch Out, Super Punch Out, Tron, Karate Champ
I wonder how many quarters I stole from the top of my dad's dresser to go to the corner deli and play this in the smokey game room in the back? I would take most, but not all of the quarters, as not to get caught. Sometimes there was a huge pile of change and I knew I could take about 6 quarters. This was my favorite game of all. Growing up in the early 80's with a cool deli on the corner with all of the latest games was quite the experience! What a fun place to spend those years! :) Sorry dad! And sorry mom, I "borrowed" money from you too, from your purse! I had the time of my life though! :D
Childhood Memories of me at 9 years old hanging out at the Arcade And The Community Center In my neighborhood where the kids went after school. I Played Donkey Kong all the time back In 1984'' 85'' Then my mom bought me the Atari 2600 lol My favorite game back then was Ms Pacman, Centipede, Donkey Kong And Astroides😊
If you love these games, I recommend you to play Mappy. Mappy is a really spectacular arcade game. It's made by the same company who made PacMan (Namco).
As of early 1981, Nintendo's efforts to expand to North America were unsuccessful, culminating with the attempted export of the otherwise successful Radar Scope. They were left with a large number of unsold Radar Scope machines, so company president Hiroshi Yamauchi thought of simply converting them into something new. He approached a young industrial designer named Shigeru Miyamoto, who had been working for Nintendo since 1977, to see if he could design such a replacement. Miyamoto said that he could. Yamauchi appointed Nintendo's head engineer, Gunpei Yokoi, to supervise the project. Nintendo's budget for the development of the game was $100,000. Some sources also claim that Ikegami Tsushinki was involved in some of the development. They played no role in the game's creation or concept, but were hired to provide "mechanical programming assistance to fix the software created by Nintendo". At the time, Nintendo was also pursuing a license to make a game based on the Popeye comic strip and animated shorts. When this license attempt failed, Nintendo took the opportunity to create new characters that could then be marketed and used in later games. Miyamoto came up with many characters and plot concepts, but he eventually settled on a love triangle between a gorilla, a carpenter, and a girlfriend that mirrors the rivalry between Bluto and Popeye for Olive Oyl. Bluto became an ape, which Miyamoto said was "nothing too evil or repulsive". He would be the pet of the main character, "a funny, hang-loose kind of guy." Miyamoto has also named "Beauty and the Beast" and the 1933 film King Kong as influences. Although its origin as a comic strip license played a major part, Donkey Kong marked the first time that the storyline for a video game preceded the game's programming rather than simply being appended as an afterthought. Unrelated Popeye games were eventually released by Nintendo for the Game & Watch the following month and for the arcades in 1982.
Donkey Kong reference in Mammoth’s Trivia Game Blutoceratops: BOOO!!!!!! BOOOO!!!!!! You call this entertainment!? This is what we did back in my day!!! *Blutoceratops kidnaps Woolley the Mammoth* Woolley the Mammoth: HEY, WHAT’S THE BIG IDEA?! One of Woolley’s nephews comes to the rescue, dodging barrels thrown by the ceratopsian and climbing the construction site. When you reach the top or take too long; Woolley the Mammoth: I’M OUTTA HERE!!!!!! *jumps off the site* Blutoceratops: *shrugs*
Fun fact: There is a game made for the Game & Watch handheld line which is supposedly a prequel to the original Donkey Kong arcade game, and is titled Donkey Kong Circus. In it, Mario is a ringmaster who runs a circus and abuses Donkey Kong by forcing him to tricks which involve the poor ape getting hurt. This has lead many (including myself) to believe that he kidnapped Pauline so he could get revenge on Mario for abusing him.
I saw a G. I've seen it all. Dope describes my rhymes, making all you emcees cold drop like dimes. You know MCSC is back again, and battling me on the microphone is like committing a sin. Scott/MCSC
Well he's not wrong, nintendo already said that they are the same (Mario was jumpman's new name when donkey kong jr came out), Plus super mario odyssey is making it pretty clear and obvious. I'm not trying to start an argument, i'm just saying what i've seen
Easter Egg Tip, On the Rivet Screen, "If you stand within the white bar, were DK is standing, hit the JUMP button. At Mario's High Point, quickly tap to the right or left with the joystick. If you do right, you can 100 points, each time you do it. It doesn't work on the NES version--only on the stand up-arcade version."
***** I beg to differ. A feeling of achievement getting to the pie factory is greater in the American version instead of getting there in 4 levels like the JPN version. Seems to me more thought went into the American versions level layout IMO.
Ahaa it’s no wonder that after level 9, The game will have a weird level order, it first will start with the barrel stage followed by the the pie factory stage, then it start with the barrel stage again then the alivator stage and rivet stage will appear afterwards. So it’s no surprise that the game shows 5 donkeykong’s in the last intermission screen. Then after level 14 it starts with the barrel stage, then the pie factory stage, then barrel stage again, then the elivator stage and then then barrel stage and finally the rivet stage. So the intermission screen obviously shows 6 donkeykong’s. But after that there should be 2 levels to reach the kill screen. Either way it’s a weird level order from nintendo at the end.

Can't blame him, he chases Princess Peach all of this time, and thinks he's going to get her which he never does, only to have Bowser kidnap her again.

DK Jr does not appear whatsoever in the Donkey Kong Country games. He was originally going to be but that did not sit so well with some people so in the end Diddy Kong was created to fill in instead.
edray1416 That is correct, Donkey Kong Jr, is actually the father of the current Donkey Kong. Nintendo was originally going to make Diddy Kong as an updated version of Donkey Kong Jr, but they thought theire designs were to different, so they scrapped that idea. And the thing is that many people get confused because Cranky Kong calls the current Donkey Kong his son. However Cranky Kong is the grandfather of the current Donkey Kong, and son can be short for grandson, so yeah.
I found out that the DK in this game is not the same DK found in modern games. I found out the Donkey Kong in this game is actually modern Donkey Kong's grandfather, Cranky Kong.
The first major Nintendo game and when DK was a villain, before Bowser (don't start with the Cranky Kong BS. That was Rare's idea, not Nintendo's). Kinda funny this was inspired by Popeye.
Donkey Kong happened because Nintendo needed to use up excess machines from a failed game that uses the same cabinet as their previous game Radar Scope (1980).
There was a hack to the first level. You go up the first broken ladder, come back down, go left a step or two, then jump to the right. It goes to the next level.
We owe it to this game for what we have been given throughout these 39 ongoing years of excellence.

Ever since Pixels came out, the song "We will rock you" plays in my head when I watch or play this.
This version is nostalgia to me. I used to watch so many arcade videos in the early days of RUclips... Ah, the nostalgia...

There's a potential Donkey Kong kill screen comin up.
Plot twist: DK and Pauline are actually friends. Mario wasn’t saving her, he just wanted to beat up a random gorilla

And thus a legend was born

Then after level 14 it starts with the barrel stage, then the pie factory stage, then barrel stage again, then the elivator stage and then then barrel stage and finally the rivet stage.
So the intermission screen obviously shows 6 donkeykong’s.
But after that there should be 2 levels to reach the kill screen.
Either way it’s a weird level order from nintendo at the end.

There is a trick in this game on the blue board. If you get really close to DK's foot without getting killed and keep jumping you can rack up points.

However Cranky Kong is the grandfather of the current Donkey Kong, and son can be short for grandson, so yeah.
It's Zahn, like Donkey Kong!!! 🦁
I remember that game when I was little!!!!
After watching this video, i want to play donkey Kong now lol
I found out that the DK in this game is not the same DK found in modern games. I found out the Donkey Kong in this game is actually modern Donkey Kong's grandfather, Cranky Kong.
Donkey kong for arcade is so much fun
The first major Nintendo game and when DK was a villain, before Bowser (don't start with the Cranky Kong BS. That was Rare's idea, not Nintendo's). Kinda funny this was inspired by Popeye.
Where it all began.
I love this game when I was a kid
me to
Donkey Kong happened because Nintendo needed to use up excess machines from a failed game that uses the same cabinet as their previous game Radar Scope (1980).
There was a hack to the first level. You go up the first broken ladder, come back down, go left a step or two, then jump to the right. It goes to the next level.
I heard you put your left hand in, you put your left hand out, you put your left hand in and you shake it all about
Just wondering - is there anybody besides me that didn't think Donkey Kong and Pac-Man were that great back in the day?
Super Mario Let's Celebrate

I remember playing this game at a little house in Tennessee far from dollywood.
Ah, the arcade game that started it all.
