Every cartridge's shell, label and board are checked for authenticity when it comes into the store, and it's tested before it's listed. It ships in a collector's bag or a hard plastic case.

Item Description

Here is a piece of Nintendo trivia that never gets old: Donkey Kong Jr. is the game where Mario is the bad guy. After Mario captures Donkey Kong and locks him in a cage, it falls to Junior, a small, scrappy ape in a white shirt, to rescue his father, while Mario stands guard with a whip and keeps sending trouble down the screen.

Junior plays nothing like Jumpman. Instead of hopping barrels, he swings and climbs, and the vines are where the real technique lives. Holding two vines at once pulls him upward faster, while hanging on just one lets him slide down quickly, so moving well means constantly switching grips as snapjaws chomp their way along the vines and nitpicker birds swoop in from above. Knocking fruit loose to drop on the enemies below is one of the most satisfying moves in early Nintendo design, and a well-timed drop can clear several threats at once.

Nintendo R&D2 brought the 1982 arcade game home to the Famicom in 1983, and this NES version has been re-released and ported many times since, a sign of how well it holds up. The stages are short, sharp tests of timing, the jaunty music is impossible to shake, and every run teaches you something new about how the hazards move and where the safe gaps are.

The 5-screw designation refers to the cartridge shell. Early NES carts were assembled with five screws before Nintendo moved to a three-screw design with plastic tabs, so the 5-screw variant comes from the early years of North American production. It is the version early-variant hunters look for when they put the Donkey Kong trilogy together on the NES.
