Evolution of Donkey Kong Kidnapping Pauline 💃🏻🦍 From Arcade to Nintendo 3DS

  • In this video we show the evolution of Donkey Kong kidnapping Pauline through gameplay sequences and cutsneces from the following games: Donkey Kong (Arcade), Donkey Kong (Commodore 64 / C64 - Atarisoft version), Donkey Kong (Coleco Adam), Donkey Kong (Commodore 64 / C64 - Ocean version), Donkey Kong (Amstrad CPC), Donkey Kong (ZX Spectrum), Donkey Kong (MSX), Donkey Kong (Game Boy / GB and Super Game Boy), Donkey Kong 64 (Nintendo 64), Mario vs Donkey Kong 2: March of the Minis (Nintendo DS), Mario vs. Donkey Kong: Minis March Again! (Nintendo DSi), Mario vs. Donkey Kong: Mini-Land Mayhem! (Nintendo DS) and Donkey Kong Original Edition (Nintendo Wii and 3DS).
    Although actually Donkey Kong kidnaps Pauline in all Donkey Kong ports, many of them don't explicitly show how he does it and therefore have been discarded from this video.

    The Coleco Adam has a nice looking Donkey Kong.
    The Super Gameboy looks and sounds good plus it has all those extra levels.
    The Mini's games seem like spin offs rather than DK games, and though I've haven't played them much (only played the Wii U one) they look awesome.
    I also like how the game looks and the challenges in the NES Remix games.

      Nintendo could,ve done this as well since the gameboy’s channel 3 can be used to generate voices, but i guess nintendo just wanted to show off what the supergameboy could do,still trough i consider those 4 colorized stages very lazy done as they could,ve do it much better to mimmick that shere of the arcade version.

      DK doesn't love Pauline. DK was Mario's pet and DK didn't like the way Mario was treating him so he kidnapped Pauline, who was Mario's girlfriend at the time, just to annoy Mario. DK and Bowser do not commit bestiality, only the stupid newer retcons in Nintendo have made it look like that. Bowser doesn't love Peach, no matter what the stupid retcon in Odyssey says, the original and true reason why King Bowser Koopa kidnapped Peach was because Bowser wanted to invade The Mushroom Kingdom so his Koopa Troopas used Bowser's dark sorcery to turn the Mushroom Kingdom inhabitants into inanimate objects like horsehair plants, blocks and stones. Originally, Princess Peach (called Princess Toadstool at the time) had the power of magic to reverse the spell that Bowser had put on the Mushroom Kingdom...THAT IS THE REAL REASON why Bowser kidnapped Peach. So Mario has to rescue Peach and then the dark magic that Bowser put upon the Mushroom Kingdom is now reversed. That stupid bestiality stuff made by losers in the new Nintendo team came later in stuff like Super Mario Odyssey.

Lady is renamed to Pauline and same with how Jumpman is renamed to Mario. Nintendo even confirm the reason why they change Pauline's original design from the Arcade game to a brunette in Donkey Kong 94 is so players wouldn't confuse her appearance for Peach since Pauline's original design looks similar to Peach's design. Also, even in the home ports of the Donkey Kong Arcade game like the NES version, she's officially name change to Pauline.
