This video features versions and ports of Donkey Kong Jr. which is yet another iconic game from Nintendo. Please leave a 👍 if you enjoy the video and subscribe to my channel. As always for the GEEKS like me 🤓please read the Time Stamps for more details about each version/system where available.
Please note: I have not included the GBA e-reader version as it is just an emulation of the NES version and virtual console versions are also not included. I have included only level 1 gameplay for most of the systems except NES version and Arcade version.
