In the early 2000s, incomplete prototype versions of ''[[Donkey Kong (game)|Donkey Kong]]'' and ''[[Donkey Kong Jr. (game)|Donkey Kong Jr.]]'' for {{wp|ColecoVision}} were discovered. Both cartridges actually postdated the ColecoVision releases and were seemingly ports of the versions from the {{wp|Coleco Adam}} computer, which featured more levels and cutscenes. The games were re-compiled into hacked ROMs titled "Super DK!" and "Super DK Junior" respectively; the unaltered ROMs were never released.<ref>{{cite|url=www.digitpress.com/reviews/superdonkeykong.htm|title=''Super Donkey Kong''|publisher=Digital Press Online|language=en|accessdate=May 27, 2024}}</ref><ref>{{cite|url=forums.atariage.com/topic/219923-super-donkey-kong|title=Super Donkey Kong - ColecoVision / Adam|publisher=AtariAge Forums|language=en|accessdate=May 27, 2024|date=December 20, 2013}}</ref> | In the early 2000s, incomplete prototype versions of ''[[Donkey Kong (game)|Donkey Kong]]'' and ''[[Donkey Kong Jr. (game)|Donkey Kong Jr.]]'' for {{wp|ColecoVision}} were discovered.
