30th Anniversary of Donkey Kong

An anonymous reader writes "30 years ago this month, Nintendo released Donkey Kong — an iconic arcade machine that put the company on the video game map and introduced Mario. Technologizer's Benj Edwards celebrated the anniversary by rounding up some of the game's odder sidelights. For instance, it was originally going to be a game about Popeye, Bluto, and Olive Oyl — and among its stranger offshoots was a pocket-sized game in which Donkey Kong and Mario faced off in hockey." Gamasutra has a more detailed article about the game's development.

I always think of The Mentors song...

[grub]

Donkey Kong always reminds me of that great Mentors song Donkey Dick:

Lyrics to Donkey Dick :
I got a donkey dick, it'll make you sick
I got a donkey dick, it's big and thick
I got a donkey dick, it's a hell of a fact
I got a donkey dick, it's where it's at

I've got a great big donkey dong
It's over 15 inches long
I've got a great big donkey prick
So shut up bitch and suck my dick

I got a donkey dig, it's big and long and white
I got a donkey dick, it packs a lot of might
I got a donkey dick, it's fucked old bags
I got a donkey dick, it's so long, it brags

I've got a great big donkey dong
It's over 15 inches long
I've got a great big donkey dong
So shut up, bitch, and listen to the song

I got a donkey dick, it will pass your test
I got a donkey dick, you will say it's the best
I got a donkey dick, and I'm not a real goal
I got a donkey dick, and it will really pack coal

I've got a great big donkey dong
It's over 15 inches long
I've got a great big donkey dick
So shut up bitch and lick my prick

Donkey dick, donkey dick
I got a donkey dick
I got a donkey dick, it's a real fact
I got a donkey dick, it's where it's at

Donkey dick, suck my prick
