Release of Donkey Kong
While its sequel may have more complex level designs, the debut arcade title is more fondly remembered by virtue of doing it first. Originally an adaptation of Popeye, the characters were retooled into original designs when Nintendo could not secure the rights. -
Release of Donkey Kong Jr.
Players control the antagonist's son, and this time they are saving Donkey Kong from Mario, or Jump Man as he was known back then. Climbing on vines instead of ladders makes movement feel freer. Ultimately, all of these aforementioned platformers are a little too simple for most modern gamers. -
Release of Mario Bros.
Not to be confused with Super Mario Bros., this arcade game introduced many elements common to the franchise, including warp pipes, Koopas (then known as turtles), and Luigi. However, the gameplay is combat-focused and not a platformer. This is also the first time Mario was a plumber. In Donkey Kong he was a carpenter. -
