Title: Donkey Kong Cartoon?
Post by: Tv_Themes on May 15, 2005, 09:15:06 PM

No i'm not talking about the bad CGI cartoon run in the late 90's. I saw something about a Donkey Kong and Donkey Kong Jr. Cartoon on a website. Did these cartoons exist and if so what were they about and how were they handled?

I'm not talking about that cartoon. It was a 1983 cartoon based on the arcade game.

After a little bit of searching, I found some information about an old 1983 cartoon called "Saturday Supercade" which featured a variety of popular video game characters of the time, including Donkey Kong. That's gotta be it.

I can't believe I have never heard of this before. I mean... a cartoon starring Q*bert? That's awesome. :)

btw... it looks like Mario made an appearance on that show. I guess that would be his television debut. Check it out...









Here is a link to the IMDB site...

Yes. He had his own segment in the show, apparantly. If you do a google search for "Saturday Supercade," you'll find some pretty informative fan sites for the show. (I'm not linking to them because the only ones I found use inappropriate language :/)

They covered that, man.
I vaguely remember that show. I seem to remember seeing it on television when I was little, but I couldn't tell you what station. In fact, it's wierd because I was born in 88 and I wouldn't think it would be on TV then.
