Donkey Kong (alternatively Game Boy Donkey Kong, and Donkey Kong '94 in early development) is a Game Boy game released in 1994 by Nintendo. The game starts out with the premise of the original 1981 Donkey Kong arcade game. However, this game qualifies as both an extension and a standalone title; it features 97 additional stages beyond this original premise. It acts as a predecessor to Mario vs. Donkey Kong. Donkey Kong is the first game in the Super Mario franchise with specialized support for colored graphics on the Super Game Boy peripheral for the Super Famicom and Super Nintendo Entertainment System, with the game's Super Game Boy border resembling the arcade cabinet of the original Donkey Kong arcade game. The game has slight audio enhancements on the Super Game Boy: Pauline's distress cry sounds closer to a realistic cry for help (the Super Famicom and Super NES's sound chip supports the inclusion of voice samples), and the credits theme was also enhanced.
