On this Day in 1983 Donkey Kong was released to coincide with the launch of the Nintendo Famicom. Donkey Kong was already a global phenomenon in the arcades. Nintendo developed the game under the direction of the now famous video game developer, Shigeru Miyamoto. You play as Jumpman (later renamed as Mario). You are tasked with rescuing the damsel in distress, Pauline from Donkey Kong. Miyamoto took inspiration from King Kong, Popeye and Beauty and the Beast when coming up with the concept. The main goal of the project was to break into the western market. It achieved this tremendously, achieving both critical and commercial acclaim in America and Japan. This was a key factor in the decision in including Donkey Kong as a launch time for the Nintendo Famicom. Donkey Kong would go on to sell 1.13 million copies on the Famicom in Japan and the Nintendo Entertainment System in the West. . #thisdayingaming #onthisdaygaming #todayingaming #videogamehistory #videogames #CultClassic #1980 #1980Arcade #JapaneseRelease #ChangingDemographic #Nintendo #NintendoFamicom #NintendoEntertainmentSystem #NES #DonkeyKong #JumpMan #Mario #DonkeyKong #DonkeyKongArcade #DonkeyKongNes #DonkeyKongFamicom #ShigeruMiyamoto
