Donkey Kong
Atari 2600
1982
With Donkey Kong, I once again find myself playing a mediocre port of a great arcade game. Jump over barrels. Jump over ducks. Repeat.
It always feels somewhat strange to be playing this game on the Atari. Mario is the Warrior Prince of Nintendo, a self-made man who has crushed any and all foolhardy enough get between him and his goal world conquest in the name of the Famicom Family. So it is a bit unnerving to see him on a non-Nintendo cartridge.

How far did you get?
If I recall, there were only 2 levels that repeated forever.
Adam, you do recall correctly. What a crappy port.
Well I guess he beat it, then.
