Description

"Donkey Kong" for the Atari 7800 console brings to life the classic arcade game released by Nintendo in 1981. Players take on the role of Jumpman (later known as Mario) as he tries to rescue his girlfriend, Pauline, from the clutches of the giant gorilla, Donkey Kong. The game is divided into four different stages, each with its own unique challenges. Players must navigate obstacles such as barrels, fireballs, and elevators to reach the top and save Pauline.

Originally created by legendary game designer Shigeru Miyamoto, "Donkey Kong" marked the debut of both Mario and Donkey Kong as characters in the gaming world. The game was a massive success and helped establish Nintendo as a major player in the industry. Its simple yet challenging gameplay, catchy music, and charming characters have ensured its place in gaming history. With its port to the Atari 7800 console, players can enjoy the nostalgic experience of this iconic game in the comfort of their own homes.
