Donkey Kong

Back in 1981 Nintendo was on the verge of bankruptcy. So the hired this unknown man called Shigeru Miyamoto to do a game for them.

The game was called Donkey Kong and starred a little carpenter called Jump Man who would later change his name to Mario and become the most famous videogame-hero of all time.

The game itself was a the time revolutionary. Not only was the first real platformer, but it was also the first game with a story of some sort.

Today the game is of course outdated, but it still stands as one of the most important games ever.

The Donkey Kong series is one of the most different adventure video games! The cool characters and the action makes this game really fun! Below is a brief look how I think the game is!

The game that gave rise to our great pop culture character, Mario Bros. It's a simple, short and very old game and maybe all that makes this game so cool. It is not an excellent or super well developed game like recent games, but that is due to the time the game was created, where games were much simpler compared to the most recent ones. Even though it's very basic, the game still manages to be a lot of fun and create remarkable characters that will come back later and become the greatest characters in games. Many people will be prejudiced against it for being from 1981, but it, in its own way, is a very beautiful game. And certainly what draws the most attention in this game are the sound effects that are very striking and impressive. If you have the opportunity to play, please play. This, like it or not, is one of the greatest milestones in video game history.

You can bet a hundred bucks to someone that they've played this game. people have played this for generations, and all of them have had fun, one way or another.

Donkey Kong, a giant ape, breaks out from the local Zoo (or at least i think he did.) and kidnaps a woman named Paula. so, it's up to jump-man (also known as Mario) to go and rescue this woman, and defeat the monkey who stole her.

Donkey Kong has come a long way. from enemy, to good guy, and to rhythm game icon. in the second version of the donkey Kong games, he was captured and Mario was holding him there. so Mario isn't all you think he is. but nowadays, DK and Mario don't hate each other. they just beat each other up every now and then. play super smash bros to do stage a fight between the 2.

this outdated, but fun game gets 8/10

This game came out twenty years ago and remains one of the most important video games ever. Due in part because it was the first to have a real story. However, it is mainly because this was the first appearance of the most famous video game character, Mario. Of course, he's known as Jump Man, a carpenter, in this game.

In the game, you play Jump Man and have to rescue a girl from Donkey Kong. Of course, you have to dodge all sorts of traps along the way. The graphics are vastly outdated compared to today's standards, but this game totally rocks. Thumbs up!
