As far as I know, neither DK64 or Untitled Wii DK Game are RPGs, so whoever added this must be using an unrealistically broad definition of "RPG" (kinda like the people who think Zelda is an RPG, but taken to the next level of not-an-RPG-ness...) either that or the Wii Donkey Kong game actually is going to be an RPG, which seems doubtful considering the comparison to Donkey Kong 64.
Not sure exactly how to fix it, though... "the only standard Donkey Kong game," maybe? (meaning, DKC/DK64-like controls rather than the bongos/peg-swinging/etc. of recent games) 63.215.28.146 ( talk) 19:58, 9 April 2008 (UTC)
I'm just wondering where that information was found and if it's even true. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Tomajko ( talk • contribs) 19:41, 19 June 2008 (UTC)
The entry for the original Donkey Kong includes a listing for the NES in 1983. Am I to assume you meant Famicom here? The NES itself wasn't released outside of Japan until 1985. — KieferSkunk ( talk) — 04:27, 15 August 2011 (UTC)
The basic organization of this list is confusing. For example, Donkey Kong on the Game Boy Advance defined as an "arcade game", but Donkey Kong on the Game Boy is defined as a "handheld game". I know they're different games, but there's no reason to consider them to be fundamentally different types of video games. They're still the same type of game regardless of which type of hardware they first appeared on. I think that the type headers should be removed and they should all be listed in 1 list, sorted by year of first appearance. The type organization is completely artificial and just makes the list confusing. Kaldari ( talk) 05:34, 15 August 2011 (UTC)

The article is missing a a release year for the Commodore VIC-20 version of the first Donkey Kong game. Ought to be fairly early, as the VIC-20 was on the market before most of the other listed home computers. Please add it if you can. -- 2003:C0:973F:5700:1A07:7E20:B066:1ECB ( talk) 20:10, 5 December 2023 (UTC)
