#REDIRECT [[Donkey Kong (game)]]
'''Donkey Kong''' is a 1981 arcade game where [[Mario]] and [[Donkey Kong]] made their first appearances. In it, Donkey Kong is trashing a construction site and stealing a girl named Paulina. Mario has to stop D.K. and save her. You start at 25 meters above the surface, then move to 50 meters, and finally 75 meters with each one increasing in difficulty. If Mario grabbed a [[hammer]] he would smash everything in his way.
In super Smash Brothers Brawl, this game makes an appearance as the 75m stage. The stage reflects this game's "crawl your way to the top" gameplay style and simplistic 8-bit graphics.
 
'''Donkey Kong''' is also playable as a 'Masterpiece' game in SSBB, though it is altered from it is somewhat altered from the original. The game starts out with the 75m stage featured in SSBB.
