Donkey Kong Jr. (Game & Watch) (October 1982)
‘’’Donkey Kong Jr.’’’ is a Game & Watch game released in the Widescreen format. It is the first of two Game & Watch games based on the Donkey Kong Jr. arcade game, the second being the Multi-Screen Donkey Kong II.
Information
Donkey Kong Jr. is based on the first two levels of the arcade game, and features the same scenario as Donkey Kong Jr. must save Donkey Kong his father from Mario. Donkey Kong Jr. must avoid Snapjaws and Nitpickers and climb his way up to a platform. He then has to make a leap of faith, in order to grab the key to Donkey Kong’s cage which is swinging on a chain above. Donkey Kong Junior will have to repeat this process three times to save Donkey Kong.
Rereleases
Donkey Kong Jr. was later released for the Panorama and Tabletop Game & Watches. Both versions were identical and improved on the original game with better graphics and sound.
Donkey Kong Jr. was included in Game & Watch Gallery 3. This game included both the original “Classic” version and a new “Modern” version. The Modern version expanded the game into three levels. The Snapjaws and Nitpickers were replaced with Mario enemies such as Goombas and Nippers. Donkey Kong Jr. was later included on Game & Watch Gallery 4 as well, with the main difference being better graphics on the Modern version.
