For a time, he sporadically appeared in spinoff ''[[Super Mario (franchise)|Super Mario]]'' games as a playable character, though he was effectively replaced with [[Diddy Kong]] in this regard starting with ''[[Mario Golf: Toadstool Tour]]'', coinciding with the latter becoming fully acquired from [[Rare Ltd.]] by [[Nintendo]].

Donkey Kong Jr.'s premier appearance is in the eponymous ''[[Donkey Kong Jr. (game)|Donkey Kong Jr.]]'' He is the star of the game and the only playable character. Following the events of the original ''[[Donkey Kong (game)|Donkey Kong]]'', Donkey Kong Jr.'s father, [[Donkey Kong]], has been locked up by [[Mario]]. Donkey Kong Jr. must travel through four stages by climbing up vines and navigating other obstacles, as well as avoiding the enemies Mario sends at him to impede his progress, such as [[Snapjaw]]s and [[Nitpicker]]s. However, if he drops fruit on the enemies, they are defeated. Once Donkey Kong Jr. reaches the top of each stage, he attempts to insert a [[key]] into his father's cage, but appears confused as Mario hauls his father away to the next stage. In the [[Nintendo Entertainment System|NES]] version, all characters simply remain idle at the end of each stage before the next one begins.


Donkey Kong Jr. is also playable in the ''[[Donkey Kong Jr. (Game & Watch)|Game & Watch version]], where his goal is to dodge birds and [[Snapjaw]]s and grab a key swinging from a tree to unlock his father's cage.
When Donkey Kong Jr. defeats Mario at last by inserting all of the keys into their keyholes in the [[Chain Scene]], Donkey Kong and Mario both fall, but Donkey Kong Jr. catches his father and then walks off-screen with him as Mario chases them. In the NES version, this scene only has Donkey Kong Jr. catch his father, with the rest of the scene being omitted.

In the original arcade game, he also appears during the transition scene between the [[Jump Board Scene]] and [[Mario's Hideout]], where he pursues Mario's chopper by floating with a parasol.

Sometimes, Donkey Kong Jr. appears out in the open and throws [[Poison Mushroom]]s. It is shown in [[Stage 4-11]] and [[Stage 8-9]] that Donkey Kong Jr. can cause Mario to lose a life if Mario touches him. In [[Stage 9-4]], Donkey Kong Jr. gets locked him in a cage by Mario in a fashion similar to the Vine Scene of the original ''Donkey Kong Jr.'' In the ending, Donkey Kong Jr. manages to free himself and lays in wait as Pauline gives Mario a [[Super Mushroom]] to catch Donkey Kong, and acts as soon as his father calls for help. In the end, the group take a photo together.

Donkey Kong Jr. is a playable character in ''[[Super Mario Kart]]''. He is classified as a heavyweight character alongside [[Bowser]]. His preferred item is the [[Banana]], with which he litters the racecourses as a CPU. His kart has maximum top speeds; however, if he drifts away from the main course, its speed decreases greatly.

Official artwork of ''Super Mario Kart'' shows a red "J" on Donkey Kong Jr.'s shirt, but his sprite during his victory animation shows a yellow "V" on his shirt instead. This was likely an intentional design choice to make Donkey Kong Jr.'s sprite entirely symmetrical. This means only half of the sprite is required to be stored in the [[Super Nintendo Entertainment System]]'s limited graphics memory as tiles of 8x8 pixels each, with the same tiles being flipped to display the other half of the sprite. During gameplay, the letter on Donkey Kong Jr.'s shirt is obscured by his kart's steering wheel.

===Donkey Kong Jr. (SNES)===
==Trivia==
{{foreign names
*During development of ''[[Donkey Kong Country]]'', Donkey Kong Jr. was originally slated to appear with a redesign. [[Nintendo]] did not like the redesigning of the character, and ordered the game's developer, [[Rare Ltd.|Rare]], to either retain the character's original appearance or to make the redesign into a new character.<ref>As revealed in ''Retro Gamer'' magazine.</ref> [[Diddy Kong]] was created as a new character to fulfill the role.
|Jap=ドンキーコングJr. (SFC)
*Oddly, several games in which Donkey Kong Jr. appears contain doppelgängers. Examples of such games include the ''[[Game & Watch#Game & Watch Gallery series|Game & Watch Gallery]]'' series (which seems to depict Donkey Kong Jr. as a species rather than an individual character), ''Donkey Kong Jr. Math'' (which includes a [[Junior (II)|second Donkey Kong Jr. colored pink]]), and ''[[Mario Kart: Double Dash!!]]'' (which includes many Donkey Kong Jr. lookalikes as audience members in [[GCN Waluigi Stadium|Waluigi Stadium]]). {{media link|BetaMonkeys.jpg|An early design}} for the [[Helper Monkey]]s in ''[[Donkey Kong Jungle Beat]]'' also resembled multiple Donkey Kong Jrs. (particularly his {{media link|MKDD Unused Character Icons.png|prototypical ''Double Dash!!'' model}}), but without his shirt.
