For those who grew up in the 80’s and currently own a Switch console you will be happy to know that Donkey Kong Jr. which was initially released in arcade centers back in 1982 will be all on the hybrid console on December 21st. For those who have never played Donkey Kong Jr its a very interesting game where Donkey Kong’s son has to rescue him after being captured by Mario and locked inside of a cage. This is the direct sequel to the Donkey Kong arcade game that came out a year earlier in 1981 where DK captured Mario’s girlfriend Pauline.
