| |In [[List of games by date#1981|1981]], Nintendo had their first blockbuster release with [[Shigeru Miyamoto]]'s creation - ''Donkey Kong''. Originally released in the arcades, ''Donkey Kong'' became a very popular game amongst gamers, eventually spawning many remakes and ports. In this game, [[Donkey Kong]] was the antagonist who kidnapped [[Mario]]'s girlfriend Lady (later renamed [[Pauline]]). It was later ported to the many home systems including the Atari 2600, the ColecoVision and the Nintendo Entertainment System. This is a simple platformer, where the player must control Mario while jumping and avoiding obstacles and making it to Donkey Kong.

| |The following year, another arcade game was created, ''Donkey Kong Jr.'' This time, the roles were reversed. Mario was the villain, and DK was a damsel in distress. Here, [[Donkey Kong Jr.]], Donkey Kong's son, had to save his kidnapped father from Mario. The gameplay is the same as the original Donkey Kong; Donkey Kong Jr. must avoid traps set off by Mario to save Donkey Kong by jumping and simply avoiding them.

| |'''''Mario Bros.''''' is the second arcade game starring [[Mario]] as a protagonist, coming after ''[[Donkey Kong (game)|Donkey Kong]]''. The game's main attraction was featuring cooperative two-player functionality with Mario's recently introduced brother, [[Luigi]]. The two are in a sewer, battling various enemies leaking from the plumbing, bashing the floors underneath them to stun them before kicking them away. Many aspects from this game recur in later ''Mario'' franchise games, notably [[coin]]s, [[Warp Pipe|pipe]]s, [[POW Block]]s, and enemy [[Shellcreeper|turtle]]s. The game has been ported innumerable times to various systems.

| |
| |'''''Donkey Kong Jr. + Jr. Sansū Lesson''''' was released exclusively as the pack-in game for the {{wp|Sharp Nintendo Television|Sharp C1 Famicom TV}}, a combined [[Family Computer]] and television unit in Japan. It is a compilation of the games ''[[Donkey Kong Jr. (game)|Donkey Kong Jr.]]'' and ''[[Donkey Kong Jr. Math]]''. The game is not exactly a combination, but rather a "platter" of the two ''[[Donkey Kong (series)|Donkey Kong]]''-related games. It combines half of the 1- and 2-Player game modes from ''Donkey Kong Jr''. and the +-×÷ Exercise mode from ''Donkey Kong Jr. Math''. The latter is from the prototype version as ''Donkey Kong Jr. Math'' was still in development upon this game's release.
