Around 82-83 we used to go to this Chuck-E-Cheese on whatever day gave you unlimited free play for a couple hours. And there was a game in a cab that said Donkey Kong on it, but as an adult I'm 99% sure it was actually a Crazy Kong board. I distinctly remember the blue and yellow fireballs and how they were different from my Colecovision version.

Maybe 1983ish at a mall arcade. I rarely went to malls BITD. But Crazy Kong was all over my hood for years before I saw DK anywhere. Fkn hack of CK! CK is the OG. Fk DK!  <thefinger>

Never played it as a kid of 9 in 1981, unlike my handle. I'm a more mid 80s aracde kid (13'ish) started playing DK after watching Tecchio on Twitch a few years ago.

General Donkey Kong Discussion / 1983 Donkey Kong Arcade Sweepstakes
« Last post by Barrels2007 on November 17, 2024, 06:16:29 am »
Ralston's Donkey Kong cereal ran a sweepstakes in 1983 to win a full size DK Arcade Machine.   The winning ticket was inside the cereal box.

Do you think anybody actually won this?  Imagine winning that in the early 80s!

Apologies if this was posted to the forum before, but if so, I couldn't find it.

My first run in with a Donkey Kong was in a small arcade in a shopping center in Dayton, Ohio. If I remember correctly, it’s was early 1983 or so. I used to sneak the 8 pack of returnable Pepsi bottles my parents had in the garage to the grocery store next to the arcade and get my .75 cents. Then head over and dump it all into DK lol. Needless to say, that .75 went quick.
