      In the 80s there was a video game similar to DK that I played in a laundry mat. I've been trying to find out the name.
      It had girders that were horizontal and ladders to get from one to the other. There were spaces in the girders that you could jump over. There were monsters that would chase you and you could lead them to fall into the holes. They would fall in but had sort of arms that would grab the girder and try to keep from falling through and after a struggle, they would climb out of the hole and continue chasing you.
      The winning strategy was to get a monster stuck in a hole on multiple levels and then hit the one on top so that he fell down and hit the next one and then they both fell down on the next one so you could defeat them all. Do you have any information on this game?

    Fun fact: Shigeru Miyamoto was actually impressed by the cage cutscene in Crazy Kong Part 2.

    I wouldn’t call Congo Bongo a clone, it’s more of a competitor. Also, you forgot the bootleg Big Kong, which is DK ported to the Galaxian hardware with some rather creepy and foreboding music used for the game.......

      Don't forget Monkey Donkey. There's also one Crazy Kong cabinet that runs on scramble hardware. From what I could find, there are 8 versions of this clone.

      Very strange but definitely based on Falcon's Crazy Kong: ua-cam.com/video/oLV6FQcrPkM/v-deo.html

    Fun fact: Mario’s “hi yah” sound in crazy Kong is the sound effect for the gorilla in crazy climber.

    Comparing Congo Bongo to Donkey Kong is like comparing Lay Bug to Pac Man.

    Fun fact 2: Falcon’s CEO was arrested because he tried to hack donkey Kong junior’s circuits.

    "Kangaroo" also borrows heavily from "Donkey Kong" though not enough to get into any trademark issues with Nintendo. To be fair there were a lot of games that borrowed heavily from those old golden age arcade games like Donkey Kong, Pac-Man, Space Invaders, Galaxian, etc. I guess imitation really is the sincerest form of flattery.

    There was an Arcade bootleg called Mrs. or Ms. Donkey Kong that had a Blonde wig onto of Donkey Kong's head but otherwise an exact clone of the game Donkey Kong.

    I wonder why Falcon didn't keep the Crazy Climber gorilla for Crazy Kong. THat would have been a nice touch.

    good video. You didn't really mention the screen jump trick for CKII. The one where you can jump through the bottom of the screen.

    I couldn't believe how bad the Crazy Kong games were. As much as they actually looked like Donkey Kong they played terribly. The controls, speed, and feel of the game are not on par at all with the real thing.
