For a while, Champ Kong for PC was the closest you were going to get to the arcade game without having an arcade board. I was really impressed with how close it came to the arcade game.

Still, my favorite Arcade game 42 years later. I think the NES port does display DK's comeuppance the best.

[@jackson2531]

Agreed. The fact that the NES version gives Donkey Kong a little arm and leg movement after falling down gives it a slight superiority over the original arcade version.

Donkey Kong: Sorry, Mario, but she is mine now! **takes Pauline to the city and Mario chases after him** Mario: Oh, that does it, DK!

[@FederSim]

The VIC20, despites its limitations, has an awesome animation of DK falling with the platforms below, and also the sound of his fall is amazing. Seems like that concept of the falling platforms isn't found in any other contemporary ports, neither in the NES version.

[@theodorehsu5023]

I remember the Apple II version, done by Atarisoft, they did a few conversions (the C-64 they did was impressive). I remember when DK got back up in "Donkey Kong '94" (and if everyone hinted, that was really a grown DK Jr., and he now had a "chimp off the old block" as his hench-ape) and said "This ain't over, Mario!" That one had DK use poison mushrooms to Super-Size himself, and you had to bonk his head with barrels to end his reign of terror: Fun fact: "Donkey Kong" was originally supposed to have Popeye, Bluto and Olive instead of Mario the Brave Carpenter (he didn't become a plumber until the original "Mario Bros."), Donkey Kong and Pauline/Lady. King Features Syndicate, however, wasn't sure the relatively new field of video games was good for them, so that's when Nintendo went with Mario, DK and Pauline. When King Features saw how much a hit "Donkey Kong" was, they told Nintendo they wanted to do a game--and "Popeye" came to be.

De crío jugaba en un equipo de fútbol federado y los sábados por la mañana quedábamos en un bar del barrio donde nos recogían para llevarnos en vehículos hacía los campos donde nos tocaba jugar. Allí hacíamos tiempo jugando en la recreativa que no era ni más ni menos que Donkey Kong, ¡auténtica magia entrando por los ojos de aquellos chavales! Recuerdo que aquella recreativa fue sustituida por Donkey Kong Jr. así que el vicio continuó :) Le tengo mucho cariño a la versión de Amstrad ya que pude jugar mucho en aquel sistema pero indudablemente el arcade tiene algo que la hace única.

[@retrosutra]

Qué bonito recuerdo. Mi primer encuentro con Donkey Kong fue a través de una Game & Watch que aún conservo. Aunque me gustaba, la verdad es que lo jugué poco en los salones recreativos y jamás logré superar el primer nivel (era aún demasiado pequeño y carecía de la suficiente habilidad).

[@Scratchman2501]

Arcade: DK has a swoll back. Game & Watch: Oof. The corners have got to hurt. NES: DK has a normal back now, and he has no concussion! PC DOS: Sully levitates veerrryyyy slowly to the girders. PC DOS (CGA Composite): Sully levitates veerrryyyy slowly to the girders in completely different colors. C64 (Atarisoft): DK gives up, and doesn't react. Atari 8-bit family: DK swallows Pauline as a last ditch effort, but falls anyway. VIC-20: DK's weight broke the stage, and caused a funeral. Apple II: Mutant Ram levitates veerrryyyy slowly to the girders in a PC DOS palette swap. Coleco Adam: DK shows his biceps, and gets a concussion. Also, it feels weird the ColecoVision didn't have the cutscene, and thus isn't on here. C64 (Ocean): RoboApe makes a soft landing on the head. Amstrad CPC: Basically just the Arcade version. ZX Spectrum: The Hunchback must fall. MSX: The Hunchback must grow human skin and fall faster. FDS: Same as the NES, but on a credit card. Atari 7800: All aboard the Donkey Express! Choo choo! GB: DK: "Ok, no. It's not ending like this again for the 17th time!" SGB: It's just the enhanced GB version. G&WG2 (Classic): Same as the Game & Watch, but heckin' pixelated G&WG2 (Modern): DK should learn not to kidnap Peach. That's Bowser's thing. N64 (DK64): Same as the Arcade, but DK gets his Banana! (1 like, 1 extra banana) Nintendo e-Reader: Same as the FDS, but it's not worth the effort of getting the game to work. G&WG4 (Classic): Same as G&WG2, but it was thrown onto this collection to give more playability. G&WG4 (Modern): DK learns his lesson for the 2nd time, and gets dropped for the 22nd time. He should really consider retirement. GBA: Same as Nintendo e-Reader, but far more convenient. NDS: Man, Nintendo loves rereleasing the Game & Watch version, don't they? Wii/3DS: Wow, Nintendo loves rereleasing the NES version even more, don't they?
