Donkey Kong (Arcade) was the rescue of Pauline from the hands of Donkey Kong.
History
- “Donkey Kong has kidnapped Lady and escaped into a building under construction.
Mario also entered the building to save the lady, but he cannot get close to her because of Donkey Kong's obstruction.
Can Mario save the lady......?” - —JP Donkey Kong (Famicom) website[1]
Mario's pet monkey Donkey Kong has kidnapped Mario's girlfriend Pauline.[2][3] Donkey Kong did this to make fun of Mario.[4]
With Pauline in tow, Donkey Kong climbed up the scaffolding of the Construction Site. Mario followed suit and climbed up the 100-meter infrastructure, dodging barrels, cement, trampolines, etc.[5]
At the very top of the building, Mario loosens the bolts supporting Donkey Kong, making him fall and reuniting Mario with Pauline.[6]
Timeline
- Donkey Kong kidnaps Mario’s girlfriend Pauline, likely due to the events of Donkey Kong Circus.
- Donkey Kong climbs up a construction site, possibly the same one from Wrecking Crew.
